Fingers crossed it’s not too bad & this lockdown won’t be as long.

Longer I'd say, unfortunately.

A friend of mine who works in the HSE was finishing up for xmas yesterday when she got a call to say she's being redeployed back to swabbing duty and to report for the first 12-hour shift on Stephen's day. Would certainly make you think things aren't going well as last time she was doing this was back in the early Summer.

Are they busy now as people might have travelled here and are looking for tests?

That is unfortunately the problem with all these lockdowns.
The amount of people who will die from cancer, heart problems and other illnesses as a result of missed screenings, treatments and general visits to their GP will be huge in the coming years.

As was referred to earlier above this thread is going months and months abt who's getting it how did they get it pubs open numbers etc all this is irrelevant as anyone from some covid hell hole like London US Spain etc can come in here without isolating no mather how many months we do of level 5. And this continues etc etc there's your covid

China, pharma companies. Plenty others but those are the first two that come to mind.

And why would governments the world over support China and the pharma companies in this scam as their economies desperately suffer?

What exactly has China got to gain?
Anyway, enjoy your Christmas, Mr Trump.

Scamdemic me hole.
There's football clubs who are bigger that forbes 500 companies and hemorrhaging millions a week due to the pandemic.
Ronaldo earns about €2m a month and kept testing positive for 3 weeks but with no symptoms. Not once did Juve or Ronaldo claim a scamdemic.
These clubs have the best doctors and best facilities in the world.
Not one of them have come out with a scamdemic claim. They have the medical professionals and the lawyers cabable of challenging the government's, but not one of them have.
Have the government's made a balls of a lot of decisions, yes.
Have they all gotten together to make all this sh1t up, for a global reset, no. And if you believe they have then God bless you and your over active imagination.

Let's not forget in April you had to have a few symptoms to get a test and no one could do anything or go anywhere.
There have been a record number of tests this week and uncovering cases that would have gone unrecorded in April.

Back at the end of March, I was a close contact of a couple of people who had it but because I had very minor symptoms, I wasn't sent forward for a test.

Now they'd send you for a test with no symptoms in that scenario.

Oh, I know. I wish I had been sent for one back then.
