A bit late for those posters as most people are vaccinated . I doubt stickers on poles will influence school goers as they probably will not see them as they are looking at their phones for guidance .

It seems Carlow is now second most infected county, are there any known big outbreaks or is it some kind of "organic" growth?

High in infections but a very high rate of vaccination.....how is this? This cursed thing will last a very long time yet

Still second highest, only behind Donegal. Not a word about it from local doctors, community leaders or god forbid a politician. Nothing!!

St. Claires Hospitality Kitchen'd to pull their Facebook page down last Friday; anti-vaxxers'd lumped in, piled on under certain posts, Status Updates about the kitchen having to, oh, you know, comply with health & safety guidelines & that they were still giving out takeaway meals to those unvaccinated who come to the door.

It's situations like that (majority, maybe even all of those commenting aren't local of course but would no doubt be aware of the local anti-vaxxer population; I could name and/or identify at least 10, maybe 15 off top of my head albeit by PM only obviously) that would make me not have an issue regarding DVC or CVC for indoor gatherings/dining going forward whether that's a Govt. mandate or policy of organisation or outlet/establishment etc.

Has anyone gone to a walk in booster clinic in the Dolmen centre? Just wondering what the wait time and queues have been like in January. thanks.

It seems to depend on the time of day, from what I've heard. I've had a friend wait 20 minutes and another nearly 2 hours. With the primary aged children now eligible, I'd imagine queues are longer, though? Depending on your age, you might be lucky, look at the times on this link and avoid primary school start and stop times as well as lunchtimes, perhaps?

The childrens clinics are at different times to the walk ins.

i went 2:15pm on the 11th and it took 20 mins. Queue appeared long but moved fast. I didn’t have to wait the 15mins at the end as I’d had Pfizer at previous doses
