Iād urge you to step back here.

I believe I proposed this for Ireland myself last year and was laughed out if it by @EstebanSexface
Yeah I thought it was a good idea too. Test the whole population every fortnight more or less. Anyone with it isolates and everyone else can get on with it.
The tide is turning against this bullshit. One thing coming out is how much of a zealot Donnelly is on this. Heās been convinced by senior officials in D/Health who have had an extreme set against travel since summer.

Pretty pointless with open borders?
I donāt think so. Open borders are not the problem, the problem is in the country. Mass testing would be far more effective than closing borders in my opinion.
The priority has to be on getting things operational domestically before travel can be open.
I know youāre pining for a holiday but you just have to accept that. Non essential foreign travel will be the last thing opened up and rightly so.
Incorrect.
Iāve walked from the party.
Cute.
The DOF need to be a bit cuter about this as you can see the self described experts have fully mobilised this weekend.
Those experts didnāt put the U.K. on the list. The U.K. will be the simple way to get around these draconian restrictions, particularly as they will be moving to start opening their borders to countries in several weeks. You canāt trace such people and it makes the whole thing redundant. If they were anyway serious on catching the variants, why not a PCR test on arrival so you can properly monitor from every country?

After a year we havenāt eclipsed stage 1, self interest.
Home quarantine is a great idea. Why hasnāt anyone thought of it before
Will they put tracking devices on their ankles?
Youāll have to check in on that app that was very important there about a year ago before being completely forgotten about
This has been pointed out since last year. All this talk of closing borders etc, what you need is testing. By all means have quarantine for people that test positive on arrival.
The thing to realise about MHQ is it is not even meant to be an effective measure. It is a ridiculous system set up for optics that provides no protection.
The courts will be absolutely loathe to interfere in the governmentās right to act in the public good in an emergency. But against that it is clear that the goals of the MHQ system could be achieved by less intrusive means (e.g. testing), so itās possible it could be struck down. Fingers crossed.
