    That's terrible, what a shower.

    If you're a small business owner with 5 employees you'd probably thank that loophole to be fair

    It has spreed from Italy to Ireland. Currently one person up north confirmed. more to follow in dublin.

    This is going to be a real ****show. Funny thing is I predicted this a few days ago on a post in reddit.

    Its really a **** time to have a lame duck government.

    Now having a snap election to get the gears moving again might pose too much of a public health risk.

    Imagine if we'd had the foresight to turn back flights from Italy last week, would have bought us a lot of time.

    But sure, lookit, No else was doing it. We're part of the EU and such bollocks

    The one up north came through Dublin Airport and travelled on to Belfast, unsurprisingly as they weren't monitoring those coming in.

    California is a hot spot akin to Milan

    The situation in the Golden State may be getting even worse. Health officials are currently monitoring 8,400 potential coronavirus cases in the United States’ most populous state and largest economy.

    Because they can't afford too.

    Most airline companies would go bust from several days down time, never mind several weeks.

    It is, or was, hardly rocket science to know we'd get a case at some point. Many interviewed on radio and TV have said so for a couple of weeks.

    Not inner city. Most people seem to be in great form either going to the darts in the 3 Arena, late night shopping or Thursday night pints.

    Sweden are saying one of their confirmed cases came from Germany so it's in full spread now as person wasn't near the obvious hot spots like China, South Korea, Iran or Northern Italy
