    Flights need to be restricted to Irish passport holders only.

    We handed too many out like confetti though. The passport holder must also be genetically Irish, i.e. in someway related to Brian Ború.

    The shops will be restocked. There is no issue with supply.

    There’ll probably be another “run” tomorrow, unfortunately you can’t legislate for stupidity. If you need anything urgently you can join in the “fun” or else wait a day when the shelves are full again.

    Emmett I haven’t even got the messages in for this weekend never mind two months time

    London stock exchange absolutely tanked today. UK government response is not instilling much confidence. Worst day since Black Monday in 1987. Worse than the 2008 financial crisis.
    Stock market was closed when they made the speech, not sure how the speech had any affect at all on the market

    Macron
    -starts thanking doctors and nurses
    -France have the best experts and the Gov has been following their advice
    -Gov's first priority is to protect the most vulnerable and then to slow down the flow of patients to the hospitals
    First measure:

    -He asks the elderly and those with pathologies to stay at home as much as possible

    I have an idea of the numbers coming tomorrow
    When the UK's chief medical officers announce today they think they 'likely' have upto 10,000 currently (offically 600).


    You can 'likely' multiply, by a factor of x15 the offical line.

    There is every possibility that with the spreading trend, there will be a cluster associated with a supply chain eg a distribution centre/warehouse with workers/truck drivers infected and the place has to shut down.... what will happen then?

    They disinfect the place, get new workers and carry on

    Anyone returning from Cheltenham needs to be ****ed in the sea for idiocy.

    For a bit of perspective. Cheltenham isn't a hotbed of the virus, it's no different to here.

    So how many thousands of people are traveling together on Dublin bus every day here? And we're all too familiar with being on the bus and not being able to even see the stop outside because of the condensation on the windows.

    Cork's 96fm saying that 6 cases out of the 67 (im guessing its 67 given two deaths and one recovery) are in intensive care.

    I'd imagine everyone else has the same idea. Not trying to knock it or anything. Woman in work went to her local tesco this morning before work and car park was packed with people waiting for it to open, lining up with trolleys. All she wanted was a coffee so she just left.

    Why didn't she just walk in and get her coffee while everyone else was filling their trolleys.

    My advice is get online tonight and check the opening times of shops near you,some bound to open at 7am, get there opening time in the morning and get some supplies, in and out in 10 minutes, this alone with take one worry of your mind, If you have to work, go in late, tell him the alarm did not go off.

    You have to take responsibility for yourself, if the SHTF as bad as we fear, it will be a hard few months ahead for us all, try make it as easy as possible.
    The best that can happen is you can stay at home safe during a lock down, the worst is you have plenty of long life food that you will eat in the coming year, in other word there is no down side to getting in some supplies

    There is no lockdown

    The people traveling on the bus are mostly from the same area and you are talking 60 passengers max.
    There’s average 70-80 thousand a day attending cheltenham from all over the world and there was a confirmed case in cheltenham on Monday.
    Huge difference

    Please sign this petition imploring the government to tighten up travel from USUK to EU or we are going to have an enormous number of imported cases.

    Fair play to you for doing what's right.

    Dream on,no one is going to go work in a place confirmed to have a case of a killer virus for €10 a hour.
    The five stages, denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance are a part of the framework that makes up our learning to live with what we lost.
    Some posters are in the bargaining stage, they lost their golden opportunity to prepare for this once in a lifetime event.
    The next few weeks could have been so much easier for them if they only paid attention, and this fact is now eating them alive.

    Do you reckon with the 27 new confirmed cases today there is 27 business closing down?
