Here's another one for you to laugh at. Had someone a few weeks ago in front of me in a queue take their mask off to sneeze!!!

There's stupid people everywhere. Like, we're meant to be wearing masks because we might be contagious, so how does someone think it's ok to take it off in a shop to cough and sneeze. Absolute idiots.

Before Christmas someone standing beside me in Boots took off their mask to cough and put it back on.

The local newsagent doesn't require masks for staff or customers.

Around Christmas I saw a lot of teens without masks.

I can't understand why families still need to all shop together. Why are two adults and three children needed to obtain groceries, just send one adult while the other keeps the kids.

What shops are you frequenting?

I haven't seen someone without a mask in a shop for months.

There's plenty of chin nappies around in most shops (Most of the ones I've been in that is)

Even the staff.

How are healthcare workers still getting this?

I know they can probably pick it up outside the hospital but surely not all of them?

Their PPE isn't anywhere near perfect protection from the virus.

I'm also looking out a window at people taking off masks going in and out of other shops and in their cars and it's can be fairly sloppy.

Centra Togher plenty of ppl not wearing masks

Health care workers immune system would be low as they work now in a very stressful environment plus not properly eating and tired as well so they are the most likely to pick up the virus or the virus target their vulnerable system.

Wearing there masks but pulling them down to talk to people or wearing them under the nose! We’ve a few numptys who don’t believe in COVID and have been told they’re not allowed shop in store anymore unless wear a mask

The reason we have lots of cases rn is not cos a small small minority can't be arsed to properly wear a mask, its because people went ballistic at christmas

What shops do you go to? Was in Eason's last week, one fella with mask under the nose, a few more staff with no masks as well.

It’s probably them being tired and possibly forgetting themselves in certain situations.
Now I’d 100% believe they caught it in the community too, some amount of fûcking idiots who can’t wear masks correctly or not sanitising either

On the covid app it’s showing as 660 per 100k there. For comparison, Cork City South East is at 450 per 100k.

Both might be a bit worse than that because the numbers are old now & backlog not included but you get the idea.

That's not how infection works.

Closing down as much avenues of it spreading seems pretty sensible to stop it spreading. Click and collect for non essential products is an avenue of it spreading. It might not be huge but it is an avenue, both for customers and the workers in those places.

Hospitality has been closed since the 24th which is about a week and a half, and yes, it's best to increase restrictions as much as possible and get figures down lower faster imo. We've gone well past October numbers here so should be doing stricter lockdown than what we had back then.

You're asking for more restrictions less than a week into the new restrictions?

I disagree, especially when the food court is open so some people will take the piss and end up eating there.

Exercise, getting food, medication etc is essential. Someone collecting a new pair of jeans is not. Get the cases down and then they can reopen.

Click and collect is probably one of the safest things you can do. Do you want the economy to just implode or what?
