With the attitudes and I'll be honest plain ignorance demonstrated on here by many of you in relation to Covid all I'll say is that it's no wonder the country is fast becoming a mollycoddled laughing stock.
Some fella mentioned smart comments, while ironically making one himself and contributing f all apart from dismissing facts.
If you can't understand how to analyze data or use common sense that's fine, but don't try and put down factual information that's there to help everyone by being out and out ignorant, have the courtesy to at least listen and debate if you wish, instead of popping in with one line grunts.
Have a bit of manners instead of reinforcing the typical sleeveen gah man stereotype, smarten up lads.

I don't know anyone who died from covid.

What kind of an idiot would not be even a wee bit sceptical?

But we didn't wipe it out, it's been here since February 2020 and at no stage did we come close to wiping it out. If the news papers and media were to be believed, even one infected person walking around freely could end up with half the country testing positive within a month, unless they were exaggerating (perish the thought). So yeah, we'll put the internal holidaying in the "maybe" pile."
No way was it positive cases. There was never a time throughout the pandemic that we were told we should be anything but terrified, who am I to believe, you, or the msm? (well, probably you in fairness lol)
If it was open borders, then why were people blaming the GAA celebrations for it?"]June 28th 2020, number of new cases reported in Ireland: (1), yes one."]Weren't the icu wards stretched to their very limit then? Nurses etc under intense pressure?
Also, 50% of cases are asymptomatic, apparently? So there's no way of telling how many cases there are.
We'll somethings not adding up anyway."]You're right to say that there's no way to tell exactly how many cases there were or are but I think you would agree that the numbers in hospital and the number of known cases gives some indication of how rampant community infection is and especially if the patients are spread all over the country. "]You're drawing far too many conclusions from unreliable data."]What's more reliable than data, gut feeling ? :-). "]While I agree with some of what you say, I do not agree with the theory that we could have closed off the County completely. There is no evidence to suggest that a small open economy with an open land border to another country could have possibly achieved this. To say otherwise is to do the same as you accuse others on here of, not relying on the facts. In addition the countries that have gone for zero covid, how do they get out of the bind they have put themselves into. This virus will perhaps now never be killed off but these countries have to go back to normal

Brazil's president didn't believe Covid was serious, then he didn't believe in the vaccines to it.
Now with their country falling apart he now wants everyone vaccined by Christmas which won't happen.

Come on man.
In Britain for example, AFAIK, anyone who died within a month of testing positive for covid was registered a covid death, there was a criterium put in place in each country in order to easily and quickly make records , and I'd hazard a guess that the net was cast quite wide.
This, combined with a headline seeking media, and a gullible populace helped to inflate both the death rates and the fear.

As i cant just quote this bit alone when you hit the quote button(that needs to change...) im copying and pasting...
He isnt an adomination. He's helped lead the country to lower cases and deaths compared to a lot of other countries and he was right to lead us in manner he has even if it is now going much slower than other countries

You could only look on with a hint of jealousy at Denmark last night with 25000 at their game against Russia in Copenhagen. Testing, testing and more testing along with a very good contact tracing system and they're showing how to manage a big crowd at a major sporting event. I thinking we're letting in a total of 9000 fans into the Aviva Stadium for two rugby matches next month.

To be fair and with all due respect to Tony with what he had to go through during this, its the people of this country that lead the country to lower cases and deaths by the majority following the guidelines that were put in place, along with our excellent frontline workers keeping the poor health system going. NPHET are only giving the guidelines/advice but its the people that have done the hard work to keep everything at bay as best we can for the most part by locking down and keeping to the restrictions with the exception Christmas. I'd be patting the backs of my fellow neighbour and colleague first over anyone in NPHET

It's not how many deaths there have been, it's how many deaths there might have been that's important.
Which is something we'll never know.

Why not accept Covid is here, and work around it, by vaccinating the public, like with flu vaccines.
Surely there is a better solution than imposing lockdowns, trying antigen testing would be a start, but the junta oppose it.
