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

Yeah defo could, but they are supposed to check IDs. I've feel I've had my ID checked more lately, wonder was something said to premises.

Thankfully my local pub checks the passes, as I don't think I'd like to eat and drink somewhere that chose what public health regulations they would follow :)

No. Worried what other rules they're not following in the kitchen haha.

It's being discussed by the EU but hasn't happened yet. Current indications are that certs could/will expire 9 months after your last jab

50% of ICU patients are in for covid and also unvaccinated?

That is true. But you are applying one kind of pressure with your constant stream of insults against the unvaccinated and the certs are exerting a different kind of pressure. So that is why posters are confusing you for a supporter of certs, which you're not.

Why not live and let live, or get angry at S Donnelly for missing the Dept of Health's end of year ICU expansion target by a huge gap.

I just checked a poll there and you don't need to enter email to vote? How do they ban people from voting?

You do realise that people who are not allowed access pubs and nightclubs are just getting cans and having house parties, where no regulations exist and it is far more likely for covid to spread.

The passes do absolutely nothing and if anything they probably cause more cases by stopping people socialising where they have to follow regulations.

You know the pass is mainly to try get people to take the vaccine.

Would depend on the age groups. People tend to stop going to house parties as they get older.

Although I'd love to be a fly on the wall at some of these house parties for the discussions alone haha

no more and more people in their 30s are going to house parties that would never dream of going to them if late bars and nightclubs were open.

Late Late show 50% capacity masked audience.

Nathan Carter in Derry tonight, a full house and not a mask in sight.

........ a virus that knows what a border is!

I don't really give a sh1t about the vaccinated vs unvaccinated as both are spreading the same. I was out tonight and I was in 3 places. Wasn't checked for my cert once. One of them, the celt on Talbot Street was jammers. Not one single bit of guidance followed. No checking of certs. Not a mask in sight anywhere. Staff or customer or otherwise. No limiting access to seating. When I left it was like an other busy night outside of covid.

As I said, I don't have a problem with it. But must be a pain in the hole for any place that is severly limiting their punters and revenue.

Given that the omicron variant spreads faster than anything before, and given that its a mild cold, might the lockdown brigade and those still recommending that children get jabbed perhaps admit they were needlessly panic stricken?

You may post your revised answers in a week or two.

Still waiting on data to how serious it is, boosters also seem to work well against it, but possible cause for optimism either way, not a time for declaring victory.

People believe in the safety of vaccines, omicron won't really change that so the rollout will continue uninterrupted.

Not sure if serious.

The anecdotal evidence that the 'unvaxed' dont seem to be struggling with it - seems to suggest that they might *not* have missed a trick.

The anecdotal evidence that the triple 'vaxed' are catching it with the same level of symptoms suggests they might not be particularly 'protected'.

The absolute evidence suggests that the 'vaxed' are the primary carriers and spreaders.

If this were continue would you support the immediate suspension of measures like jabbing kids and special permission 'passports' for pharma consumers? May I assume that you would be happy that we appear to be at the end of the 'pandemic' ?
