Why should he, the company already knows the regulations and if they can't follow them then tough sh*t.

So a randomers word on Boards is good enough proof for you that a business is breaching guidelines?

That Chinese claim to have suppressed it doesn't really tally with this fairly drastic step they're taking with an untested vaccine. The risks of giving healthy people a vaccine whose side effects aren't known seem to outweigh a measure to combat a virus they allege that they've defeated.

They haven't defeated it, they've suppressed it. It will come back again given the chance.

It's not something we'd do in the West without more testing, but if China thinks their vaccine is safe then there's no reason not to deploy it. I believe they've already offered it to foreign diplomats and others who are travelling abroad.

I have reported with photographic and video evidence, that beats any phone call.

Why should I ring them anyways?

Once you have evidence you should be ok. I took the time to screenshot your comment and messaged it to the business concerned .

Looks like there is some form of contact tracing to find out where cases have been. Pub in Cork has been closed since 22 as case/cases among customer group on 12th. Some of their staff have since tested positive.

Fair play to them, holding an anti covid rally. Maybe if we'd all done this back in march covid would have realized it wasn't wanted, and gone away :rolleyes:

Letting people know the place was packed with no social distancing is trying to destroy a business now is it?

Your post inspired one poster to suggest the business should be avoided.
As I said I don't understand why you took the time to write a post for here instead of ringing the business with your concerns.
Lastly as a Mod shouldn't you report a poster instead of accusing them of being a 'troll ' on thread?
Does the Moderator tag allow special privileges not open to other posters?

I'm saying if you were so concerned your first reaction should have been to contact the business, clearly though posting on a thread you rarely see was far more pressing.
As for the 'troll' comment don't worry I follow the advice from the mods and responded in the manner they suggest.

BREAKING!

Dcully exposes Kildare business for breaking health guidelines.

It sounds like another lie, tbph Plum - I strongly suspect that if you had a post that explained away your wife simultaneously not working during covid and your wife working throughout, you would have it bookmarked, and would respond with it any time someone mentioned it, instead of pretending such a post existed. Especially given your many posts about how much you disapprove of dishonesty - though you seem to have dialled that bs back a little since it was shown where you had lied about your wife.

You calling anyone a liar is exceedingly rich.

Dcully · 26-09-2020 5:25pm

Why should i contact them?

I dont enforce anything, guidlines are to not confront but to report.

spookwoman · 26-09-2020 5:26pm

248 cases today and five deaths
104 in Dublin, 37 in Donegal, 36 in Cork, 8 in Kildare, 8 in Westmeath, 6 in Kilkenny, 6 in Laois, 6 in Offaly, 5 in Longford, 5 in Monaghan, 5 in Wexford, and the remaining 22 cases are in 11 other counties.

ongarite · 26-09-2020 5:29pm

Cork staying stable but high cases.

SleetAndSnow · 26-09-2020 5:30pm

102 in Hospital, 19 in ICU

Ficheall · 26-09-2020 5:30pm

37? Eesh. Guards were out today checking people up here anyway to see where they were headed etc., so fingers crossed they'll manage to rein it in a litte.

spookwoman · 26-09-2020 5:31pm

of the 248:
• 132 men, 115 women
• 67% are under 45
• 36% are confirmed to be associated with outbreaks or are close contacts of a confirmed case
• 36 cases have been identified as community transmission

On the face of it the 7 day average seems to be stabilising, indicating an R0 trending towards 1, but then again the testing numbers and number of positive swabs Vs confirmed cases discrepency could really throw that out of whack with a massive number to come at some point next week.

If there is a large backlog of cases building at this stage it's really making a farce out of even the 7 day trend.

RIP those who died. Interesting to see most counties are not looking like joining Donegal and Dublin.

Blondini · 26-09-2020 5:31pm

Deaths and hospitals up.

Could be a big backlog of cases to be reported early next week.

Gael23 · 26-09-2020 5:32pm

Dublin appears to be falling but 5 deaths is not good news

lethalJB · 26-09-2020 5:33pm

I can't imagine all these cases unaccounted for are retests. I think the potential backlog is at its highest and can't make any sense of it. Anyone any ideas

I'm flattered you take so much interest in a personal comment I made about my situation but yet have nothing to say about any comment I make on Covid.
It seems many posters here including you wish to attack the poster instead of what they say.
Genuine question what is with the willingness to get so personal with an anonymous poster on the net?

A general warning to the public is a better option. Unless you have more sympathy with the business.
The business isn't owed any warning by the poster. If the business is breaking rules then there's no guarantee a phonecall from a member of the public would make any difference. Money is the bottom line.

What the hell is going on even now with the large and growing discrepancy between cases and swabs. Zero transparency or accountability seems to be par for the course here.

Polar101 · 26-09-2020 5:37pm

Very few cases in Waterford and Limerick now, could be a good sign.

The Guards can check where you are headed but they have no power to turn you around only advice. That power lapsed nearly two months ago.

It just gets my hackles up that you so brazenly question others' honesty when you are willing to lie yourself and not even hold up your hands and admit that you lied about your personal circumstances to try make a point. And here again you are lying and claiming you explained the other lie, trusting that people won't be arsed (quite justifiably) to go back and look for a post that doesn't exist.

Stop channelling your inner George Lee! Key numbers now are 7 day, 14 day, cases per 100K, hospital numbers and R0. Hopefully deaths don't make their way back onto that list in a big way. There is a comment from DeGascun today where he said demand has exceeded capacity and has been an issue since the schools reopened. They are looking at how to increase that capacity.

Here's my thoughts , we all have a different perspective on danger. The poster in question may have felt the environment was unsafe but that does not mean it was instead of passing on his concerns ,posting here was the priority. I offered an example of another poster complaining of people not wearing masks in restaurants or bars (,post is still up on the masks thread)
Yes a business trying to survive, money is the bottom line. Thoughts and prayers whilst a nice sentiment don't cut it

They've explained briefly that's it's due to the notification process. Each swab would have to be assigned to a 'patient' and any duplicates removed.

You could expect that on the weekend as they may not have full shifts processing them, but the fact it wasn't always the case and the positive swabs vs new cases were pretty close together.

Now it's just all over the place, well it appears that way to us at least.

God knows what it is. Someone mentioned it being a delay in sign off across the GP service but what's brought this recent increase in backlog is beyond me.

The tinfoil hat wearer in me says that they're building for a nice announcement early in the week off the back of a nice juicy number. Maybe Dublin to level 4 or the wider country level 3.

Surely there is a way of shedding light on the middle men between swabs and reported cases?
