    I thought maybe the large hospitals in Blanchardstown and Tallaght might have contributed with a higher proportion of health care workers but I haven't heard of any breakouts in either one.

    It's simply people, teens and kids, not social distancing and not wearing masks etc. You see it all over the area and in the shops. People deliberately not giving a flying fig.

    Anyone working there is more likely to take proper precautions.

    And people simply try to blame it on all sorts of reasons, but it's just people being dicks.

    Nothing to do with that whatsoever. The areas around St Vincent's and Beaumont are among the lowest infection rates in the City.

    The level of tolerance by places like Blanch Centre has to be looked at. I haven't gone near it in a week or so but in the preceding few weeks at least 30% of people in the open malls had no mask.

    All indoor public spaces have to have ZERO tolerance for mask wearing. No mask on you, you're not coming in, take your mask off within the Centre, you're thrown out. If it takes laws to make the management responsible for that, so be it.

    One of my most infuriating social media contacts is a frontline healthcare worker and is in group socialising pics pretty much every single night. Same with some teachers!

    Blanch SC installing revolving doors during a pandemic an odd one as well.

    Some sad twat(s) has erected ‘County Dublin’ and ‘County Meath’ signs on every road around Clonee village. Not a hint of humour about them either.

    I saw this just off the approach road from Clonee to Ongar yesterday. I thought the sign looked very amateurish and unofficial. What's the supposed logic behind it?

    I see the Hopper are doing a roaring trade.

    I’d say it’s that stupid parochial stuff. The rest of the country is delighted Dublin is locked down, let’s not kid ourselves.

    Heard a bus load of lads from Cabral turned up last week and were turned away.

    Must be the "Covid Police" :P

    Went past the sign on Monday and thought someone went out of there way and paid money to get them done and also to erect them.
    Some people have too much time on their hands worring about the wrong things.

    I'd imagine some of the Meath people are none too plussed about the fact a huge number of people are pouring over the border when Dublin is on L3 restrictions.

    We should go out and start moving the signs, whilst Dublin is in lockdown Ongar should declare allegiance to Meath, I only need a 250m extension :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,150 ✭✭✭✭Hurrache


    There was one put on the road into Kilbride from Hollystown, but I thought it was a temp one put there by the crew who dug ditches to lay cables. Either way, they've annexed 10/20 metres of Dublin in the process.

    11 days later, the numbers are

    Blanch-Mulhuddart: 127.5
    Castleknock 95.4
    Ongar 145.1

    Two down, one up, a mixed picture, but none of them as high as the highest then, and the lowest now lower than the lowest then, so slight progress.

    Could we declare to both Kildare and Meath, would be really handy? :)

    Anyway, I'm sure the people who put up the signs would never cross over to the Dublin side for their shopping..

    Those are the figures to Sept 21st, I think, (and the previous set were to some date between the 14th and 21st, as I recall, meaning that the delta was observed over the course of less than a week, never mind 11 days) in which case they're potentially significantly out of date already, and I'd near expect that data to be refreshed again before the weekend with something more current (and we can only hope more positive again).

    New rate figures to the 28th available now as kind of expected, unfortunately all have increased again compared to the previous week

    Blanch-Mulhuddart: 136
    Castleknock 119.2
    Ongar 173

    Wasn’t Blanch Mulhuddart the worst area of Dublin back a couple of weeks ago?

    You sure? I thought it was an improvement.

    I wonder if Delhi Darbar Clonee closed their restaurant on moral grounds with the Dublin restrictions? Commendable if so.

    There is still improvement in areas on the first LEA figures announced but the latest figures I posted for 14 day incidence (up to the 28th) show disimprovement as compared to the rates up to 21st. I've the three posts with figures quoted in sequence below:

    Ongar has actually been getting progressively worse throughout, while the other two went down and have rebounded a bit.
