Mocking a childs weight. A new low.

This is completely false. It looks like to me the parents of this young lad have been feeding him processed food since he was born and now he has a unhealthy lifestyle. I blame the parents, he is only 13 years of age. Not his own fault.

He is at risk heading into the future with heart disease or diabetes. He needs support so he can live a healthy and happy life.

Maybe you should show some concern for people who might suffer from heart problems or diabetes.

I'm not mocking it i'm pointing out he is high risk due to lifestyle choices if he continues gaining weight at the same rate he could die in his early 20's i've seen it happen.

Weight is a factor in Covid, you do realize that?

Oh they do but the PC virtue signallers can’t allow the truth be told. As we know they live on another planet

That child is extremely overweight. Desperately worrying for a kid so young- he’s already a candidate for diabetes, heart disease and a while of plethora of other issues.
But yet the woke dopes are lapping a stupid video about Covid “rules”.

I think we can get back on topic now folks.

I see NPHET had to revise their numbers from yesterday.

There was talk about how the positivity rate from yesterday was high, coincidentally on the day they gave their recommendations, positivity rate was high!

Turns out they miscounted the actual number of test and today increased that by 50%.

Positivity rate was 2.18% yesterday rather than the higher figures being quoted, 7 day average positivity rate is 2.65% but of course yesterday the increase in positivity rate was a "concern" on the very day they made recommendations.

2.65%!!!!

Where are you see this kelt?

RTE: The Cabinet has approved a plan that will see all retail outlets, hairdressers, museums, libraries and gyms open next Tuesday.

People will also be able to attend religious service and play golf and tennis again from that day when the country returns to Level 3 restrictions.

Then on Friday 4th December restaurants and pubs that have a kitchen and that serve food will reopen.

On Friday 18th December until 6th January people can travel around the country.

Finally, a few weeks later than it should've been but the government seeing sense. Happy with these measures, hopefully we'll see more easing of these nonsensical restrictions.

Once New Year's is over they'll find some excuse to lock us down again.

6th of January looks pretty much a confirmed lockdown again if you ask me. Dunno why else there'd be an end date to travel around the country.

AssetBacked2

To me that could also go the other way; they could extend the easing further or else keep it at level 3 into January. Perhaps in order to keep NPHET quiet they've told them 6th January for a review but they don't have an intention of moving to level 5 again.

On Friday morning Fianna Fáil TD Jim O’Callaghan said his personal view was that the country should go to Level 2 when the Level 5 restrictions are lifted. “People need to see benefit at the end of the process.”

Speaking on Newstalk Breakfast, Mr O’Callaghan said he had opposed going to Level 5 as he thought no matter what steps were taken the numbers would go up again when the restrictions were lifted.

The consequences of the disease were known, but it was only now that the negative impact of the lockdown was being experienced, he said.

He wanted to see restrictions lifted so young people could go back to their pastimes.

Health crisis for the elderly.

Social and economic crisis for everyone else.

Cases...

The majority of which are completely healthy.

NPHET are big time pissed off tonight.

Some of Holohans colleagues are saying "This is the wrong decision, we will be back at square one in January, we are heading for another lockdown"

Why is another lockdown inveitable? Just tell NPHET to go away.

45577 recorded cases in the last 6 months (under the age of 85).
250 deaths from recorded cases in the last 6 months (under the age of 85).

Considering the farcical test and trace system, I'm not sure why cases are being used as any sort of barometer for how serious a health crisis covid is. 250 deaths in 6 months objectively says it all.

Some woman from NPHET on Virgin Media news is coming up later on the programme. Not sure who she is.

Upset wet pub owner on Virgin News. Really frustrated with the lack of clarity and the level of discrimination against wet pubs.

The vintners association is calling it a political decision from FG, FF and The Green Party.

Total disgrace.

They are not the only source of advice to government but have come to believe that they are. Further restrictions depend on how the numbers go over Christmas and how soon we'll see see vaccinations available.

Royale with Cheese

Lol, NPHET telling us we're heading for another lockdown, if they had their way it would have been level 5 all through the winter. If it happens we at least get a few weeks respite at a time of year when people are least likely to follow their restrictions anyway.

RobitTV

No remarks from Holohan tonight according to Virgin News.

He cant lecture people tonight, poor guy. He must be in a foul mood after his advice was ignored.

Sending my thoughts and prayers.

Just extraordinary stuff, so Retail re opening, good news, Restaurants and Gastro pubs, good, wet pubs, no, not so good, Gym's, cinemas etc open, good.

A number of catches though, we're exactly are all the staff coming from, particularly Hospitality? Who in their right mind is going back for at best 5 weeks work in ****e conditions only to be told, sorry we're locking down 1st January, even if there's a less strict lock down, I wager a lot of hospitality and Retail closing for good in January anyway, they'll attempt to recoup something for the next few weeks but the damage is done.

dalyboy

Some university professor on the news earlier loosing the rag.

She can’t understand why we are coming out of a lockdown when it’ll ultimately lead to us needing to lockdown in January again

I’ve to learn to stop turning on the tv really. I can actually feel my own brain shrinking every time I audibly consume the anti logic coming from my tv.

Really, the other pub owner was the clown who was caught out a few weeks back when crowds gathered outside pubs in South William Street, he claimed it was a disgrace but was then asked had he been serving, yes (a few regulars), the same clown said if pubs were open, crowds would not gather, absolute garbage and he's also VP of vintners federation.
