    The reality Dohnjoe, is that this virus is not any more deadly than a bad flu season, and that has been established by the clear statistics themselves and by scientists all over the world.

    But that's not true though.
    It also assumes that we did and do know everything about the virus, which we were being told a few pages ago, we didn't and couldn't possibly know.

    It also doesn't make sense. Cause if there is a global conspiracy and all the scientists are in on it (which they have to be, since they are recommending these measures), why don't they inflate the figures to justify the measures?

Hence what the Irish government are now doing is ludicrously over the top and can not be explained as some kind of rational response to this kind of infectious virus.

    Thanks for your personal opinions, but I know the facts/details. Most countries around the world are taking the same precautions.
    Therefore you are going to need a new theory as to why they are doing what they doing.

    It's your personal opinion that the world is "overreacting" to this virus, so you have invented a subjective made-up theory to validate it to yourself.

    A nebulous theory and prediction that the country is going to become some sort of totalitarian dictatorship, light on details, which I've heard hundreds of times before over the past 2 decades..

    Care to provide details and specifics of how this is going to go down? or are we just supposed to unquestioningly swallow every random internet prediction in this thread?

    You were doing so well by actually have a concrete date to your conspiracy theory. But now it seems the rest is just vague implications and general fearmongering.

    That's a very odd claim...

    Where are you seeing all these people denying covid?
    And in fairness this is trump stating he has covid, would it be any great surprise if he didn't actually have it the man wouldn't know the truth if it whacked him across the head, now I'm sure he does have it but I wouldn't put anything past him.

    Don't think anyone claimed such: that there isn't a flu going about.

    The source, measures, reactions, interests, timing and contextual factors are the real juicey factors to this China Flu.

    No, they have covid 19, we already established that. That's a very prevalent and hard flu this year, kills a fair few more than the flu last few years.
    But it is funny that finally Trump has got the china disease.

    So the only three week lockdown in Dublin has become...are all the boiling frogs out there feeling hot enough by now!

    Note how the brainwashing has people expecting a 'second wave' for months now, conditioning you to accept what they are now doing. The vast majority of viruses like this have no second wave at all, they just run on a cycle where there are affective for a while until people build up immunity and then they disappear, and this is what seems to be happening with this virus now if you look at death statistics from it for example.

    But the powers that be needed to talk this way to keep going their social conditioning going and media hype prepared you for what actually never happened!

    Has increased because the virus cases are increasing.

    When there are more cases, i.e. the virus is spreading to more people, then more mitigating actions must be taken to reduce the spread. This is not complicated to understand.
    Note how the brainwashing has people expecting a 'second wave' for months now,

    There's no "brainwashing", the world has had pandemics before. A "second wave" was expected, and now it's happening.

    He's talking about Miggeldee although he has no part in formulating government policy so I don't know why he's been targeted here. Maybe he's going to get arrested for crimes against poetry?

    Wait... is 5G converting his poetry into the Chinese Aids?

    Indeed. Who knows, perhaps this?

    The Great Reset: A Unique Twin Summit to Begin 2021
    • “The Great Reset” will be the theme of a unique twin summit in January 2021, convened by the World Economic Forum (Davos also)
    • “The Great Reset” is a commitment to jointly and urgently build the foundations of our economic and social system for a more fair, sustainable and resilient future.
    • It requires a new social contract centred on human dignity, social justice and where societal progress does not fall behind economic development.
    Also not many of the biggest billionaires have lost out, most have benefitted.
    Oh, and China is expecting +7% GDP for 2020, not bad going for Wuhan.

    So the majority of world leaders and their cabinets are ok with this? Which is why they haven't spoken up?

    You are dishonestly representing or are ill informed about the great reset, the plans for which are public and pre-date the pandemic.

    (Actual) Reality:Covid is mentioned all of 'once'* on the PR, in this 'twin' summit. Not even in the opening bulletpoints, unless you want to jam it into long-standing (pre-wu-flu) global health matters.

    https://www.weforum.org/press/2020/06/the-great-reset-a-unique-twin-summit-to-begin-2021
    *COVID-19 has accelerated our transition into the age of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. We have to make sure that the 'new technologies' in the digital, biological and physical world remain human-centred and serve society as a whole, providing everyone with fair access,” he said.

    The clue is in the WEF title (Economic forum), common themes also include:
    An urgency to build(rebuild) the foundations of our economic and social system for a more fair, sustainable and resilient future. ....It requires a new social contract...

    Climate change, racism, meaningful jobs, energy, education, technologies, ID systems all get a mention here (again, generally nothing really directly to do with the pandemic).

    Further Reading:
    https://www.weforum.org/great-reset
    To improve the state of the world^, the World Economic Forum is starting The Great Reset initiative.
    Yes more fairly vague aspirations from the WEF & DAVOS: widespread global changes to be introduced across various domains, but even with any pandemic the 4th Industrial Reveloution, climate, jobs, economies, emissions, infrastructure, energy, migration, IDs, populations and all other issues would have needed addressed, pre-2030.

    This target date is important as these 'Sustainable Development Goals' pre-dates covid, even the pandemic simulation.

    This is simple an oportunity to re-shape the (global) social-economic models, an opportunity out of a crisis. The current pandemic is simply an accelerant to previous 2030 goals.

    Of course the changes after this Great Reset, can be both good and bad, it's not all going to be one or the other. The end results of which no one will fully know, until the desired (by global stakeholders) 'Reset', is fully complete to alter the ^state of the world, changes likely also in some 'permanent' sense.

    What's the conspiracy? Without the "maybes" and "perhaps"

    If none, then we know what it is. Nothing "sinister" to it at all.

    Ah the aul 'so what's going on?', yet again.
    If you haven't figured out some significant changes are on the way (read above post for a start), and that they will likely be permanent, well....

    Now, TBF, the WEF/DAVOS folks themselves are somewhat vague themselves, with their own calls for a 'new socio-economic global system' due mainly to the (now) begining 4th Industrial Reveloution (covid is a secondary or relative complimentary factor).

    However much of their 'systematic' (Great Global Reset) themes, would appear to point towards a new multi-use global digitial blockchain based ID type system, this has implications of course across: travel / consumer and business spending / environment / state services / asset management and even wholescale social and economic (socio-economic) based structures.

    More vagueness and a severe lack of basic cognitive cerebral processing of information provided.

    The Great Reset (although WEF/DAVOS) are vague themselves does suggest (AGAIN): a new multi-use global digitial blockchain based ID type system for use across a variety of global spectrums and categories.

    Would you not agree?

    Try without suggesting a technology, then insinuating it might be, or maybe, or perhaps will be used to nefarious purposes without explaining what those are

    This does answer the question perfectly.
    I can't make the answer any clearer than this, and suspect you are now posting in very bad faith, or simply challenged.

    The introduction of a new multi-use global digitial blockchain based ID type system.

    Also, the 'introduction' will be more of 'push', that commonfolk, unaware of such technologies (yourself) actually do not understand.

    Azure Blockchain has already been proven as useful by WEF partners at id2020.org.
    As far as it's use, it could in theory be deployed for a huge variety of uses and sub-systems.

    The most immediate of which (2021 onwards) will be a new travel ID (CommonPass Framework), a common global currency (a successor to Bitcoin) could also emmerge (but regulated via the IBOS etc).

    Luckily WEF have made a nice (big) diagram for folks to peruse, before The Great Reset 2021 gets underway:
