Relaxation of Restrictions, Part XII *Read OP For Mod Warnings*

It's just beggars belief, now there on to its not the schools nonsense.

I often wonder are these experts wearing ear pieces with feeds from various government departments and HSE telling them what to and what not to say but always make sure to mention we're all collectively brilliant.

If NPHET Think for a second any right thinking person will listen to their guff about behaviour, collective responsibility, they are completely deluded.

Poor analogies there, putting on work wear and doing safety inductions will not damage your health.

If a person believes that the vaccines may result in side effects then its their choice not to take it.

Like the swine flu vaccine ended up with side effects.

The vaccine has been rushed through and there me as yet unknown side effects.

I am fully vaccinated but I can see why some don't trust it.

Nolan on vaccine coverage. Not sure what he expects for the 12-15 group, as it is a parental call.

Well Nolan explained the incidence rate in all age groups is increasing together, so if it was a serious issue in elderly people, surely the incidence rate in 65+ would be shooting up?

One would also expect the incidence rate in HCW's shooting up higher than there non HCW's counterpart?

Paul Cullen, Irish Times, he's usually very probing when looking for facts , just asking CMO about Sweden

We're not talking 'bout construction,

or commercial heat induction,

Not on about the nomads

Nor the barge or ship or boat lads

We're on about the pub; and you'll excuse my harsh inflection

When I state a pint should be allowed without a **** injection.

What he's saying in a round about way is that his modelling isn't worth a shïtê.

Our very Owm CMO not checked in Dublin Airport, that says it all really

In fairness it isn't. If you are sitting, having some plank stand in front of you reduces what you see. You need to stand, blocking the people behind you, who need to ........., so it is de facto a "standing " area - which the genius / experts expressly say is not safe.

Utter and complete incompetence

He said the incidence rate in all age groups is rising. If waning was significant, you would expect it to increase faster in groups who have been vaccinated earlier in the year.

It's a pandemic that has effected everyone, yes. But that is down to the failure of the people who won the various political popularity contests to recognise it as a pandemic of the very elderly and very unhealthy and respond accordingly.

Doctors will always be ultra-conservative and easily swept up by official-sounding hysteria. It's no coincidence that doctors were the biggest and earliest supporters of the Nazi party. 🤷🏻‍♀️

The restrictions and lockdowns have affected everyone. This virus is predominantly affecting the elderly and those with multi co-morbidities.

Tony wants mask wearing everywhere indoors - even mentioning masks should be worn at concerts 🤣

Doesn't make a lick of sense what's happening here. Since we've vaccinated almost the entire adult population our hospital and ICU numbers have only gone up. I think the HSE need to check the receipts and make sure they didn't order shots of saline at this stage.
