    Dr Ray Walley, a member of the National Covid-19 GP Liaison Committee told this evening’s briefing of an elderly patient of his who attended the funerals of her two brothers, two weeks apart.

    As a result she contracted Covid, along with her children and grandchildren.

    "She ended up seriously sick in a general hospital and many of her family ended up similarly," he said.

    "I asked her what was the lesson she learnt from it and she said she should not have gone to either of her brothers' funerals. And these were congregations where you would have some degree of control. Whatever the reasons, congregations should not be happening."

    It’s funny but I’ve seen scenes and incidents reported over the last week or so that were far more concerning in regards to Covid and the spread etc

    Them or our politicians never seem to mention those type of incidents though!

    Far easier to lay into an ordinary family grieving and making a mistake or an old lady doing likewise.

    Has Dr Ray Walley made a comment about the recent traveller wedding that took place in Galway?

    Has Dry Ray Walley made a comment about the 300 people who gathered for a funeral in Leitrim?

    Or can he only safely criticize little old ladies without any consequences down the line.

    It's none of his business what patients get up to in their spare time his job is to treat them he is a doctor not an epidemiologist, immunologist or virologist.

    The good Doctor Walley is,to a large section of OUR society,a shining beacon of righteousness as he tries valiantly to save us from ourselves.

    This is the mantra,which according to the Newstalk programme has widespread support out in the real world.

    Doctor Walley is right on-message and will doubtlessly be praised to the rafters for his efforts.

    The question remains,do we continue to prioritize the Doctor Walleys of this State,or do we keep questioning the official line.....until that itself becomes forbidden ?

    One of the most disgusting things I’ve read so far during this year of journalistic absence.

    There is not a scooby doo chance of any semblance of normality in Ireland this year.

    Will they bolix give up the limelight

    For the 1st time in their lives these guys have the attention of the room, but they didn’t get the training in med school on how to handle the fame, and this is the result

    That's something else. I thought I'd seen it all but that's bottom of the barrel stuff. If that was my family is be weighing up whether to start legal proceedings against him for divulging personal information or give him a slap.

    And they visited the dying family member in hospital so basically (if true) they all picked it up in a hospital with the Hospital's permission to visit. But sure, blame the people.
    He goes on to talk about people wearing masks and washing their hands, as if the hospital would have let them visit someone dying of covid without PPE?

    More like one of those evangelical preachers than a doctor. I sincerely hope he doesn't have to go through what that poor lady and her family have and then have it plastered on a national press conference. I bet he thought he was a great lad when he decided to relay that juicy little titbit.

    Some wards will allow access, such as oncology but only at end of life (last 24 hours basically). Hand hygiene and masks are 100% required though and if it's for a COVID patient I'd imagine that full PPE would be required.

    Death is final and we are a long time in the ground so to chastise that poor woman for visiting a family member at the end of their life is a quite incredible thing to read.

    Dr. Ray Walley is the lowest form of life with those incredibly callous remarks, when I visited my dying father in hospice care last autumn the final thing on our minds was contracting f*cking Covid. This blaming of people for acting like human beings with actual feelings needs to stop, in the proverbial sense Walley's neck should be publicly wrung. Vile prat.

    And they accuse those who are anti restrictions of lacking empathy

    I think somewhere in his piece he references his connections in the UK,which may,to a high degree, explain this sort of response.

    The UK authorities have now gone on a major crusade against protestants.

    Just look closely at the significant increase in powers now being proposed for both the Home Secretary and Chief Constables.

    Keep her lit Doc.....!

    It's happening all over Europe. I'm not sure if you all have seen the scenes from the Netherlands over the weekend but The Dutch police are particularly violent. in one incident a plain clothed police officer pushed a lady into an incoming police van, In others they indiscriminately battered member of rhe public with batons and set police dogs on them.

    I think he needs to work on his connection to the the human race. Complete lack of any emphathy just to get his "message" across.

    Remember in 2019 we were told to beware of the rise of the far right? Turns out we were all looking in the wrong direction.

    What dr walley reported is reprehensible but it's the norm for NPHET to just spread fear and ramp up the worry meter at every opportunity.

    Love this quote from glynn tonight
    " we have to get over April and may. We have to get through this period and it's not easy. I don't envy in any way people who make decisions around this period. We make recommendations, others make decisions. I don't envy then their job. It's our job to provide advice in relation to the disease."

    Looks like the blame game is starting.

    NPHET we only make recommendations don't blame us.

    Government we acted on NPHETS advice don't blame us.

    Surely it can't be long before the police somewhere kill an anti lockdown protestor. Is that what it will take before the masses wake up?

    Glynn also at one point said it was his job to advise the people.
    It's actually not; his job is to advise the government.
