    False rumours can ruin a business
    When my wife heard they had been to Cheltenham she said that was it, never going to his restaurant again.

    looking forward to the infamous taco fries with cheese once again

    Anyway this is the Tralee thread so anything related to Tralee is surely allowed.

    Yes a Tralee thread, not a ruin someones business and reputation thread with rumours. He doesn't need to tell us anything, he didn't even need to come on here to say anything, he chose to. Please respect that. If he wants to talk about their health etc he can, but he doesn't need to.

    Another bit of sad news coming from Tralee tonight in the form of a death. To say it's tough times is a huge understatement

    Why comment at all so if you don't know for a fact what you are talking about?

    Do we have any idea the amount of people recovered .

    https://www.bing.com/covid/local/ireland

    Has had the same recovery figure the last 2 weeks while the count and death rate increase correctly

    Surely more people must have recovered now .

    I know for a fact name, age, address, it was coronavirus. Not sure what else you want me to comment on? Hearsay was speculation about where they had been etc. I didn't want to go into any more detail so thought best leave it at that

    I'm not looking for any comments, that's my point.

    Too many people are trying to be first with the news, we had it yesterday with people saying they knew for a fact that a nurse/some nurses had died, and this morning then all over the news we had responsible reliable sources pleading with people to stop spreading false news on social media.

    Fair enough if you know who this person is and know for a fact why they died but maybe consider they have family who haven't yet been informed or there are other families who know relatives in Tralee who have the virus and for one reason or another can't contact them.

    Your point makes no sense. No name address etc was shared. Impossible for anyone to identify etc. On Facebook a post was shared ,I didn't link due for exact reasons outlined above. If me posting that unnamed individual has passed in tralee drives home the message again to the people on this forum to be careful then great , mission achieved. Let's move on

    The first death in Tralee of Covid-19 (the person from St. Brendan's Park) was named as Nicky Comerford on the front in the Kerry's eye. RIP to the poor man and condolences to his family :(

    If you read the first two paragraphs that you excluded when you quoted me you might have a better understanding of the point I was making.

    You’re posting something that was shared on Facebook despite the very high profile specific requests from the authorities for people to please stop doing this very thing as it is causing unnecessary stress and widespread panic to others.

    And somehow you still think you’re on a mission of goodwill?

    I'm going to reply just once more to you on the assumption you mean well and I want to give you a full explanation, however I am not replying anymore after this.

    Something shared on Facebook.... by the deceased person family member.... very high profile specific requests.... this relates to false information, hysteria etc.... I posted one person had died, which is 100% true, on the basis its important for a town like Tralee to fully understand what's happening and it can happen to any of us. We need to be careful.

    This thread is full of speculation which you haven't seen appropriate to jump on, maybe have a look at that before jumping on this.

    Honestly, we are going through a global pandemic which is hurting our tiny town, and really think everyone should be doing everything to help, we got bigger problems in life and let's move on with them. Hope you have a good day.

    I’m sure you meant well yourself and have no doubt the unfortunate death will be officially announced in due course.

    Enjoy the rest of your day and stay safe.

    Personally, walking from my house to Forge Cross and back again would be comfortably within the range.

    You can go where you like. The Gardai have absolutely no legal basis to:
    1. Ask you any questions not related to the road traffic act
    2. Tell you where to go or where you cannot go. We live in a free country!

    Oh Jog on . What a stupid response.

    So you go where you want and you potentially infect god knows who. why cant you just stay at home . Chances are given the mentality of your responses you spend most of the time at home in normal circumstances .
    Why should that change now.

    And here lies the bad attitude which is why we have these restrictions, which will no doubt be extended beyond the 12th of April. Because of this couldn't care less attitude, more people will contract covid-19 and more will die.

    Do you think you can go wherever you want at the moment? Despite being told to stay at home unless you need to go to essential work or to get food? We have been told not to go wherever we want, not politely asked. Do you think going wherever you want because you think the Gardaí can't tell you otherwise is clever?

    What a mature attitude you have!

    She was just giving the correct legal position. The emergency powers relate only to detaining the person on the instruction from a medical person of someone infected who is refusing to isolate. Of course in practice if you ignore the Gardai as a non-infected person we all know they will go out of their way to 'find' an offence to nail you on so you better not have any bald tyres etc....

    Apart from comments on a free country etc being stupid and selfish in this current climate, what the selfish often forget, is that the quicker they stop being selfish and just stay the fcuk home, the sooner they and the rest of us can get back to our freedom!

    Tks guys. Yes the standard taco fries are mince taco sauce and cheese on chips. You can take off or indeed add on whatever you like.

    I must be in the minority of people who does not like taco fries (no offence Burger Shack!!). Prefer my fries with salt and vinegar, that's it! Although I do remember having chips and coleslaw from Viva Burg after a night in Horans on many an occasion!! They usually tasted better after consuming alcohol! lol
