    Should Dublin be put on lock down now - with it opening up in 3 weeks. Other than that, you wait another few weeks watch the numbers climb rather you have a prolonged lock down. DO it now!!! Just a thought
    What would a lockdown involve for Dublin?
    You mean the same as the other three counties? It wouldn't make a tap if difference tbh.
    Bar less people going on hols outside Dublin

    Here is a bit of trivia, the maximum break in snooker is actually 155. If there was a foul on the break, and a free ball was awarded where a colour and a black was potted first amounting to 8 points, followed by all the reds with a black with each red and all the colours in sequence totaling in 155 points.

    Couldn't technically any number of fouls be committed before the first red falls?

    "Take a step back" is always good advice anyway! Answered that very nicely.

    I like the conference so far.. the questions haven't been stupid, the Cork GP was good, and dr. Glynn is giving pretty good answers.

    Good push-back against the "casedemic" line of thinking.

    Unusual. Not the normal weddings questions so.

    She was already asking about schools, but she may have supplementary about weddings! :pac:

    It's a wonder she didn't ask if the hairdressers are in danger of closing again.

    I know two bar owners, both said won't be opening until Easter.

    No clue if they know something, were told something or just being speculative but, thought it was interesting that they both said the same thing

    As long as people continue the snark about Zara King's wedding questions I will continue to make the point that those questions actually matter to people. Not just couples getting married but also to those of us who depend on weddings for income.

    Ronan Glynn is making complete sense and well able to speak . Well done to him

    155 is the break, not total score. If you're left unable to directly hit both sides of a red ball after a foul, you get to nominate one of the other colours as an extra red,

    If they were smart they'd have already been putting out frozen pizzas, I wouldn't take much notice.

    Fair enough. But she does over do it to be honest.

    Glynn saying cases need to go down.
    But with schools going back that is impossible.

    The plan atm seems to be open schools and see how bad it gets.

    All within the last hour.

    Only a matter of time before Dublin goes into lockdown!

    Good shout!

    Surely Dublin will have to go into lockdown.


    Huge spike in Dublin recently. Will be interesting to see if they go into lockdown. If we can eliminate the cases in Dublin it will be a massive win.


    Dublin quickly becoming the epicentre. The amount of people per each square kilometre means its ripe for community transmission.


    Would be surprised if they put Dublin into lockdown.

    That's over a year closed, don't know how they will sustain that level of loses.

    She's the only person who does it. The publicans have half the country asking when pubs will be re-opened (granted the other half are demanding that they remain closed). Wedding professionals have Zara King. Without her keeping weddings in the spotlight we'd be even more f*cked than we already are.
