It's gone very quiet in here tonight, is something happening?
Has there been any cases from the teams themselves?
It would have made the media is there was0 -

My parents were locked down in Spain for the first one. Everything shut except supermarkets and pharmacies. Even going for a food shop, only one person was allowed. None of this entire families browsing the middle aisle in Lidl. And there were shop marshalls enforcing distancing, as opposed to here where you have to queue in a traffic light system to get in and then it's a fúckin free for all anyway.
You could only go out to exercise your dog. Some poor dog was confiscated when it was noticed on his tenth walk of the day that he was being unofficially rented out to people who wanted to be out and about with legitimate excuse
A friend of theirs decided to tidy up the garden. When he stepped out onto the pavement to trim the hedge he was told "go back inside sir". He said "but I'm just trimming the..."
"Back inside sir". So he did. But they have big guns..our lads have telescopic batons iirc.
That's a proper lockdown 0 -

Above is a link to a Q&A he did recently with another extremely reliable source called medcram (which is for mecical students in USA).
Here’s his qualifications:
John Campbell, RN, BSc, MSc, PGC.Pharm, PhD is a health educator and analyst that has spent over three decades teaching students in the United Kingdom, Asia, Africa, and online with an extensive video library. Dr. Campbell also has also published textbooks on Physiology and Pathophysiology.
Here’s the qualifications of the person he did that Q&A with who said they really respect what he is doing In trying to educate people about the virus:
Roger Seheult, MD is the co-founder and lead professor at https://www.medcram.com
He is an Associate Professor at the University of California, Riverside School of Medicine and Assistant Prof. at Loma Linda University School of Medicine
Dr. Seheult is Quadruple Board Certified: Internal Medicine, Pulmonary Disease, Critical Care, and Sleep Medicine
The reason people might get snippy with you is because many of us have found him a excellent source to follow since January. He’s more reliable then any news media in this country, he leaves links to his sources and he corrects mistakes he makes which is more then can be said for most media sources.
Also, some people have tried to put him down for some reason getting very hung up on him using the name “doctor”. I’d argue he knows a lot more about the disease then most doctors and using that title if anything is doing his knowledge a disservice. You need only look at his catalogue of videos to see all the different specialists and doctors he’s spoken with around the world. If you watch you might learn a few things.
Ah I’d ignore that poster your responding to he only try’s to annoy people on here. Doesn’t really contribute much bar snide comments.0 -

he probably didn't.
he was saying it as a general point that the health service wouldn't be able to cope - although he did have the figure for Irish ICU capacity but it was the "normal" number I think.
remember the Germans took care of severely ill Italian patients flown in during the initial European outbreak when they couldn't handle the numbers - that was real sh1t and real European solidarity.
I wonder how many survived after.

As soon as restrictions where announced here there were some looking for ways around them.
We share our world with people that won't,under any circumstances,follow guidelines.
Its almost like they think it's their duty to disobey the rules?0 -

They could but poor guards would have a hard time finding the border in Sligo and Meath. Meanwhile there would be a free for all at the biggest border in Donegal and no problems crossing into Monaghan. 0
