    Sorry if this is stupid question but I'm curious to know if like the flu virus it's more easily spread in cold and damp weather and If weather picked up in next few weeks would spread slow down or are they totally unrelated?

    The experts are stock-pilling masks to sell them for 3.50 a piece!

    OR the Chinese are buying the masks and sending them to.....CHINA!

    And then the masks are only good for 15 minutes OR half a day!

    That seems to be the conventional wisdom, not sure how scientifically based it is...

    If the situation wasn't so serious, it could pass for a comedy sketch! Pure parody at this stage!

    Honestly if this virus culls the retired Liveline calling pool, would it be that bad?

    Not something to be relied upon.

    I think the only difference in the short term is if weather settles down a bit and more people walk \ cycle to work rather than take the bus.

    I think strong direct sunlight kills the virus off if it's outside, but we won't have that here for months.
    Often it's the school summer holidays that bring breakouts to an end, not actuall the sun.

    Why needs the HSE and the Dept of health to take lead when we have the Joe Duffy show?

    Simon Harris: Coronavirus screenings at Irish ports 'not likely'
    When asked if screenings for the virus would be implemented at Irish airports Harris said: "No is the short answer"...

    "Screening doesn't work. One of the reasons it doesn't work is that you could have this condition for up to 14 days and not show symptoms. So we need to have a proportionate response."

    So we have Harris unilatetly declaring it doesn't work. ...

    Well better tell that to China

    'China quarantined 94 air passengers arriving in Nanjing from Seoul after three people, all Chinese, on the flight were discovered to have fevers yesterday'

    So the logic in Ireland is just because some cases may not be detectable - we shouldn't bother our arses even trying. Well done Mr Harris!

    Joe just said the HSE are the experts we should listen to them.

    Won't mention the overpaid regime shill again.

    Is there anyway Boards can get a 'White Knight' filter so I don't have to read the sanctimonious posts in response to the imaginary Lidl OAP?

    Brief look at your post history and You’re across hundreds of threads being a professional contrarian by the looks. Where do you find the time?
