    They all came back negative

    Roberts cove yesterday was akin to Salou , tight packed crowds, absolutely no parking, water and beach and field above it jammed,no gardai absolutely no social distancing as it was impossible to do so, I turned my car and fled, I sincerely hope we don't get a second wave

    I also hope we don't get a second wave.

    But in fairness you are a person who went to the beach who is complaining about people going to the beach. If all those other people weren't there, you'd have stayed, then people like yourself would have arrived and complained about the crowds.

    There is a very low chance of outdoor transmission on the beach on a sunny day.

    Very low is an understatement, it’s practically impossible tbh, outdoor transmission is incredibly rare

    One additional case in Cork today.
    Dublin on the other hand is +25 :eek:
    A construction site in central Dublin has closed down temporarily on Monday after a number of building workers tested positive for coronavirus.

    Difference being I wasn't going to the beach but above it( hawks/falcons etc) and I left immediately, didn't leave the car, just back from there today,less than a tenth of the crowd,day approx 50 ppl,10 cars

    Even though you're practically rubbing shoulders with your neighbours?as was the case yesterday, maybe I'm being paranoid, but so be it, anyway neither you,I,or anyone else really knows what's going on

    I heard something about 3 staff members there after one came back from holidays

    I’d be shocked if they let that happen. The amount of social media they do is ridiculous about COVID. I don’t think they would’ve left a staff member back without quarantine

    My niece works there. I've heard nothing. She visits my 90 year old mum, which she would not be doing if there was any truth to this rumour.

    I'll make further enquiries.

    This is just crazy, we’ve been told we shouldn’t really travel and then I see an ad advertising to go holiday in Malta on virgin media. First time I’ve ever seen that ad.

    What's the rate of positive results in those situations? Routine tests obviously skew the overall figure.
