Whatever about the green list, anyone know when legislation about wearing masks in shops is due to be passed?

I don't think anyone can say what was doing the rounds in December was normal in any way. It kicked the living sh1t out of our household for 3 weeks and I can safely say I've never been that sick in my life.

I'm not saying it was Covid but I wouldn't be shocked if it was neither.

I agree with this.

Not saying it was Covid either but, constant dry, heaving cough for over 4 weeks, zero energy and a fever, which I never get. No matter what, I couldn't shake it. My father, an elderly man with underlying conditions got a bout of it and he was in bits with it and he never gets a flu. Colleague of mine had it for over 2 months. Saw a specialist and they didn't know what it was

Certainly wasn't a normal flu

They haven't come up with a convincing reason for it yet

Yeah, hard to say for sure until there's antibody tests. But flu can be pretty serious, it's just that a lot of people think they got the flu when they just get a cold. This year there's an alternative explanation for these, but it can still be "just a flu".

Not saying it was Covid either but I was floored over Christmas with a dreadful cough and fever , the doctor said she thought it was viral but was afraid it would invite bacteria and cause pneumonia she put me on steroids and anti biotics
My body ached and had chills and shakes all over Christmas .
I had the flu vaccine a few weeks prior to this

Just finished watching prime time, Dr Adrian Hill from the Jenner Institute was pretty informative. He’s seriously optimistic about the Oxford Vaccine I know he’s one of the main contributors to it but him saying September/October as being the best case scenario I’ll take that.
Know full well we won’t be all getting immediately but this news needs to keep on rolling!!

Antibody tests are rubbish

Wife was in the coombe today. Full corridors, no seating for patients, no social distancing. No staff seemed to care, shrug of the shoulders and 'ah sure look'

According to the BBC this is going to last DECADES , so fair enough, get used to it, we need to move on, who wants to live in lockdown for decades ??


F*CK THAT!

Was 99% a flu or something and not Covid

How did I come to that conclusion?

We tested thousands and thousands with those symptoms for months on end and 99% didn't have Covid

Where would I get figures on how many people died of the flu in Ireland for the first 6 months of 2019 v's the first 6 months of 2020? I've tried online but can't get any figures on this year.

Were flu deaths reported, in both positive and suspected cases, as the cause of death?

Very detailed on the tail end up 2019 up to present date but no figures for first half of 2019 to make an accurate comparison.

Did you get a little kick from trying to piss on that bit of good news? Feel better?

I've been getting flu vaccine every winter for years. My mother and work circle also gets flu vaccine every year. And it's all successful. I was told of a person who got the flu vaccine and came down very ill from the flu vaccine. Have other people experienced similar before where they are floored from the flu vaccine?

Sh1t, sh1t, sh1t and sh1te.

It will be interesting to see how this takes place. If its staff that's sick or children or parents. If it becomes a larger circle with staff, children, parents getting sick.

I ended up in hospital for a few days with the flu, all the other times I thought I had the flu was mild in comparison. The flu can be quite serious and I’m healthy. Took me by surprise!
