But their is right and wrong in this.
The current climate is not one that's conductive to life as normal. People need to make changes to what they get up to. If they can't then they will be forced.

What happens if all those people believe the UK advice that herd immunity is the way to go. Why should we have to toe the line of our masters? I didn’t vote for FG. I didn’t vote for Leo.

*I am playing devils advocate on this thread, I am someone who sees both sides but the hysteria found here seems to be completely at odds with the rest of the population where a I live. South Dublin btw

Governments need to start budgeting for the fact that every few years something like this could happen so that, if it does happen, they aren't borrowing on top of an already difficult debt situation. They also need to have carefully worked out plans on how to shut down and restart government services, what to pay people out of work, how to provide emergency supplies etc. Doing it on the hoof is not a solution.

Unfortunately, however, people would never vote for a political party that promised the fiscal prudence needed to get the country to that level, when the other parties will be promising giveaway tax cuts and spending increases!

Which recovered cases? Most cases are 'open' as in, ongoing and not closed. It can take many many weeks to 'recover' which is a subjective description at best. When is someone recovered?
After they return 1 or 2 false tests? After they feel they are back to normal? After 6 weeks? After the next full moon?

There's been 1 confirmed recovered case that we know of.

No. You made a valid point and you made it well.
Then people tried to shout you down.

Don't give in to these hysterical toilet-roll hoarders.

Direction has been given by the WHO and by government. 2 meters distance, 15 minutes. That direction is ignored predictably by a significant proportion of the population because of an addiction.

By all means raise a point and debate it. When people with a contrary opinion based on fact and evidence counter your point, is it valid to say they are shouting?

Do the postal services still operate in the countries under lockdown?

An post said it was still operating after the announcement last Thursday but whether that may change I don't know.

Idiotic comment. Do you think they're locking down events in lots of countries at great expense for nothing? Cop on.

30's old now? In terms of dying 60-70 is considered young.

Also I think your statistic is bull****, maybe you're thinking of South Korea?

Nope not BS at all

I know that, bit bizarre that we are getting all the bad news (infected, deaths) but not recovered!!!

baron von something

Why are they not releasing where specifically the infections are? It's just North, South, East, West

Maybe it's time that we wake up and create a society that puts people's wellbeing first?

Just my notion.

No guarantee that the UK position will go better or worse for them than our position. However we at least seem to have global majority thinking on our side. The cmo here or the UK are just lads doing a job. They aren't infallible. They, one or both, may be totally wrong in their thinking and in the advice they give.

The Minister for Health in France issued a warning ... hopefully other health ministries will follow suit:

That's what I've heard, yes.

Ibuprofen is almost uniquely effective and available for managing period side effects so if people are stuck in the house with nothing to take their minds off it they're going to be knocking it back without a second thought. If it's making otherwise healthy young people vulnerable to the virus' effects, this is the kinda thing that needs to be shouted from the rooftops.

Simon Haris has just been critical of the pub video.

Has he forgotten he's in charge and force the pubs to close. Idiot.

I’ve developed a pain on a troublesome tooth I got repaired last month.
I hope to ring the dentist on Monday to see if I can get an appointment.

Can’t imagine many dentists wanting patients ??
I assume such close proximity to dentist and patient a risk to both sides ?
