@oliverobrien@ruillebuille I used to live a few houses up from that roundabout in the 80's. It was chaos back then even with very few cars on the road compared to today.
@Sammlesie @tazalot1981 Vaccines don't stop it spreading. Why would it matter if they had a Vaccine or not? It's certainly not 'letting it rip', it's always going to spread like any virus out their. You should be glad it's not the 2019 version, I had that and it's horrible. Omicron is so mild compared.
@WilliamAylmer @HMcEntee@gardainfo Why exactly do Gardaí need to be armed? Other states have much lower cost of living, since we are comparing, let's copy that too.
@Rubberbandits Similar for me after 2nd dose... kept getting emails about it long after I got it. I'm guessing it wasn't put in the system for a few days after.
@JasonJohn379067 @colmanos@rtenews I have no problem wearing a mask, but I would presume it has drawbacks too like your body not getting all those other viruses and germs it needs to keep a healthy immune system.
@Mackey1981@roinnslainte@hpscireland They admitted they don't know. But still spit out numbers anyway. I would say the numbers of people in hospital because of covid is probably a fraction of the total they are publishing.
@roinnslainte@hpscireland HSE said they don't know the actual numbers of who are in hospital because of or just with Covid 19. How can you keep publishing these figures without being able to verify if they are correct.
@gowonfication @dylancongolf@NormaFoleyTD1 I get what you're saying. But I ask, do they have Sars-cov-2 (because they don't test for covid) or are they just close contacts?
@PairicDuffy@rtenews True enough. The problem is, they shut some down, knowing they are needed. They found alternative fuels but were told they can't use them. The government put the country in this position when they could be generating lots of jobs and helping the economy in general.
@eleffyy@dylancongolf@helenmc46972890@ChKinsella@NormaFoleyTD1 I'm getting my info from the same place that article got it. Difference is, I'm not making things sound worse to get more readers. The figures are just under 2 per school, excluding preschools.
@dylancongolf@NormaFoleyTD1 Due to covid.. but not with covid, correct? Omicron is just one of about 2000 variants. There is no way to stop it. Shut the windows, warn up and deal with it. It is never going away.
@Tuts1976 @MartinaBroe1 Just checked it.. excluding preschools, the average per school is about 2 cases now. Not soiling myself, un case you were wondering 😉
@CrSfearg @Tuts1976 @MartinaBroe1 It's obviously getting worse. I'll check the stats again but I'd be surprised if they all tested positive. On a personal note, I had it bad near the start of all this, so know how it feels. Hope you get well soon.
@eleffyy @Tuts1976 @MartinaBroe1 Did they actually test positive for sars or were they just close contacts? My sons school had one out with sars and loads out as close contacts but none tested positive. That was only 1 case.
