    Monaghan is the only county without a recorded COVID-19 infection in Ireland. Even Leitrim (Leitrim!) has cases.

    And I want to know why?

    What is it that they are doing that the rest of us can learn from?

    We’re just seriously hardy people, tough as nails!
    As my wife rightly suggested though, there’s probably loads of people with it, but saying “this is a raw ol dose, be jaysus” and not doing much about it. We’d be a stubborn bunch like that.

    The OP must be a Dub, or been dumped by a Monaghan woman.

    Someone's response was "inbreeding seems to be the cure"

    Maybe our thick skin helps in preventing virus or other cr@p getting to us.

    Mr and Mr's Coronavirus and their 50 billion kids cross the border into Monaghan (driving a very large estate car)...........

    Mr Corona: Have we done here already?

    Mrs Corona: Not sure. Have we?

    Mr Corona: The people seem very ruddy faced.

    Mrs Corona: Yes, a bit flushed. Let me check my notes.

    Mr Corona: They seem to be unable to breathe through their noses.

    Mrs Corona: What's this place called again? It's not on the map.

    Kids: We're BORED!

    Mr Corona: Christ this place is a tip. Let's turn around.

    Justacoughitis and Nevergotoadoctoria are probably rampant.

    We're lousy hosts.

    We’ve perfected the blanket defense in recent years.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,518 ✭✭✭✭GreeBo


    Its because people only leave Monagahan, no one goes back in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,597 ✭✭✭Witchie


    Or stupid Dubs forgot that we are part of the Republic of Ireland again so aren't counting us in the cases.

    Ye can be refining it further in Div 2 next year.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,067 ✭✭✭✭fryup


    sure does anyone live in monaghan?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,853 ✭✭✭✭Kermit.de.frog


    Is this a good time to push for peace in the region between Cavan and Monaghan?

    Should we appoint a mediator for the warring tribes?

    I would doubt very much it's truly the case.

    Just because there are no reported/confirmed cases doesn't mean they don't exist. As time goes on I'm sure the picture will change.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,853 ✭✭✭✭Kermit.de.frog


    Still virus free AFAIK


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,325 ✭✭✭✭Donald Trump


    The virus is a zoonotic disease. It jumped from some other species to humans.

    That does not necessarily mean that it can jump to all species. For example, from humans to Monaghan "people".

    The weather radar I'd say.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,995 ✭✭✭Conall Cernach


    It's because we're next door to Cavan and there's no chance of them ever giving anything to us for free.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,790 ✭✭✭degsie


    That stony grey soil is some quare stuff, kurona would stand a chance...
