Really doesnt sit well with me how they’re forcing this issue on the public when there’s serious problems in our hospitals

Not looking at themselves and what they could do?

Sounds familiar with Tony...

Obviously the people drinking on the streets and going to funerals are all going into hospitals on the way home to infect the patients and staff. Its the only plausible reason surely.

Workplace outbreaks driving up the numbers.
People must work from home.

Can healthcare workers work from home?

Tony Holohan: "We need to redouble our efforts"

Where have I heard that one before. Push a button, generate a quote.

The next 2 weeks are crucial

Social contacts this social contacts that.

Schools Schools Schools //Workplaces

From the press conference you’d swear there is none of the above open

These people are jokers skirting around the real transmission locations and blaming the general public for all the cases.

There is zero chance of 100 cases or lower by December 1st while schools remain open.

I still can't believe that none of the journalists will ask a question about hospital outbreaks and hospital acquired infections.

It's not a secret, they are well publicised.

On a related topic the teachers have demanded priority for vaccines. Not sure if they mean they should be first in line or not, with nurses, carers in nursing homes being behind teachers in the queue.

But a critical question is - if teachers are given some sort of priority (which is perfectly reasonable), what would happen a teacher who refuses to get the vaccine?

Should they be banned from schools - without pay until they get the vaccine?

They need to accept the numbers now are best were gonna get.

The first lockdown will never be repeated again.

NHPET need to learn to live with the numbers going up or down and stop with all this gibberish.

But that wouldn’t explain the upsurge after 4 weeks at level 5.

The street drinking has been going on since level 5 started, as have funerals.

Cases will come down over the next 4 or 5 days and in the next presser NPHET will be claiming that people listened to them.

I think NPHET must be giving the journalists the questions they want.

The department of health press officer has told the media not to ask certain questions before. That’s what their job is.

"We know that Level 3 didn't work in controlling the virus". NPHET have planted a journalist in the audience.

What were Dublins case numbers going into level 3 and what were they when we decided to go to level 5? Dublin were in level 3 for a good 5 weeks and it clearly didn't work

Numbers are decreasing not increasing. These figures are added to each day or NPHET will have no fat wages. It's time to let the politicians do what is best for the economy and for Christmas and stop this nonsense.

Either this or give a complete breakdown of the date all those numbers come from. Leave some in storage in case theres a low number. Real number today 300. Real number tomorrow probably similar. Not the 500 Tony will invent.
