Not at all. Need at least 20 a day to be concerned. Dublin has 200+ per day, we have 6/7...

just wondering - with our numbers being so low last few weeks ; kinda strange seeing what nearly 4 schools with confirmed cases the last week or so ? not sure how it compares to other counties but something not adding up no or am I over thinking ? there is just no logic to this flamin virus !

Kerry has the same. They had cases in 3 schools the first week they opened (2 schools related to 1 family) and their cases are very low.

It appears there is some sort of outbreak in Ballincollig.
Ballincollig GAA have suspended play.
Second case confirmed at Colaiste Choilm.
Another case identified at Gaelscoil Uí Ríordáin in Ballincollig just now.

Sports organisations need to have a bit of cop on, I passed a playing pitch yesterday with a bunch of teens all huddled together for what looked like a pep talk. That's not on at the moment.

What does that have to do with anything? There’s been zero sports related outbreaks. If a member of a GAA club from a baby to an older person tests positive they have to suspend activity.

Seefin. One is a secondary school and one is a primary. Rumour has it that the teacher from secondary trained Gaa so they are taking no chances

Bit of a non story with nobody being deemed a contact and school continuing as normal.

I'm surprised with you being such a font for all things COVID-19 that you were not aware that last month there were at least 55 sports related infections, granted small but it will be a hell of a lot higher this month. I have no issue with sport but any fool could see a huddle is downright stupid at the moment.

You claimed it was zero. That figure of 55 was only for August.

Because they are not practising social distancing if they are all bundled together, same with posing for team photos all with arms around each other, why is that going on aswell?

There’s been zero outbreaks related to sport. It’s not stopping, not sure why that’s hard to get.

I’m not disputing that or have any problem with understanding that but there is something wrong with a group of people all bundling together and posing with arms around each other for photos during sports matches, outbreak or no outbreak.
