Mate, we need hard facts here, not innuendo.
Iāll just call it a fact and edit retrospectively as needed
The % has not moved much since they started tracking it. As the ECDC have stated, it has little relevance once the virus is endemic.
The point on the initial importation and ānew variantsā is another one entirely and goes to the heart of Zero Covid. The reality on the āKent variantā is that it was discovered months after it emerged and we could never have stopped it. The SAGE papers on travel suggested you could only delay the import of new variants with highly restricted borders and that they were not clear how that could work for somewhere like the U.K.
Itās a sidebar issue with people looking to blame others. Roisin Ingle had a horrible article in the Irish Times about it yesterday. If it was written in the Daily Mail a couple of years ago it would have been called out by the left in Ireland who have suddenly decided that borders should be closed and that workers in certain industries qdonāt matter.
Gas that lads think a politician, who is sniping from the sidelines because he was sacked from Cabinet for being a bit thick, is having a good Covid.
I was talking about Brexit, not Covid
Pearse has made a fool of your hero Leo in the Dail more times than Colm Brophy has had hot dinners.
Leo is not my hero. That is Tom Prendergast.
Please amend your post.
A FFG apologist moaning about populism. You couldnāt make it up Most pandemic related decisions this government have made have been hugely influenced by the prevailing social media mood. I think you know this already because you have been on this thread complaining about it for at least 6 months.
Six one said donāt turn up with symptoms mad alright
Nail on the head
My sniff test is you can smell farts, masks area cod
Defending Pearse like heās a football team you follow.
The usual log rollers liking it.
Iād expect an idea or two from main opposition. Pearse talks about track and trace.
Leave it son.
Youāre forever jumping to the defence of a government that you are constantly moaning about. Youāre like an abused wife who wonāt hear a bad word said about her cunt of a husband.
Who did I defend. I said Cowen made sense. Then you got all annoyed because I said mean things about Populist Pearse.
They have the ability to vote against govt policy,
The likes of McSharry saying Varadkar was telling a fairytale story with regard to leaking the document and then backing him in a vote is very FF.
Looking good in the O6 too
183 cases up north today, 0 deaths. 1.53% positivity rate

Theyāre only codding themselves with the one jab strategy. Slow and steady wins the race.
