Any cases on Aran Islands
We have 43 more days to go of L5. I reckon weâll get back to L3+ then for the remaining 80 days.

We have 70 days of level 5 left. Anyone who thinks they will be eating easter eggs with their families are living in cloud cuckoo land.
Weâll have meaningful Easter eggs this year pal.
Not a hope. There will be a review in the last week of February and they will extend the lockdown for another 5 weeks to take us past Easter.
I wish I could give you a big hug and tell you itâs gonna be ok.
Can you name them? China and South Korea donât count for obvious reasons.
Iâm fine, bro. Once you make peace with it and realise itâs all out of your hands itâs easier to deal with but people should have realistic expectations.

Youâre being typically disingenuous by quoting that letter from early in the pandemic when relatively little was known and policy was still evolving. Positions have evolved since then. Luke OâNeill doesnât advocate zero covid any more even.
Lads, Iâve heard some absolutely unbelievable stories about Monaghan over Christmas, from people that I know very well and whom I trust. @rocko, you might want to lock the thread to keep the pigs out.
Thereâs now 2 shebeens in my home parish, one for young people and one for old people, both decked out with kit from the GAA club, like the GAA club pool table and so on. But thatâs not the big storyâŚ
Tankâs big story
- massive wedding in my home parish between Christmas Day and new yearâs day
- over 300 people in a marquis that was hidden inside a big warehouse, owned by a well-known business family. They were being paid for this.
- There was a line of lorries parked around the warehouse so you couldnât see what was going on from the road.
- dancing and booze into the small hours and local caterers involved too
- a massive Covid outbreak in my parish afterwards
- thatâs the big story
Lockdown has been the biggest disaster in Irish history, itâs the prohibition of our time. The entire parish conspired to defeat the law, which I guess is great really. But I thought I was rebellious because I break lockdown every day but that this story seems slightly extreme even for me.
Meanwhile the dopey cunts on the airwaves and online fretting about foreign travel or whatnot. Theyâre on a different planet.

We need a list of lads now who fanned the hysteria. They need to be held to account.
Weâll be like the Soviets in Berlin in the summer of 1945. Settling scores.

I assume itâs one of the European ones with a different name.
You could not be up to them.
It isnât disingenuous. This was literally what Zero Covid started our saying, in their own words.
You say I am being âtypically disingenuousâ but typically for you, you fail to read. Youâll note the line of OâNeill.
His latest remarks state it is unrealistic without the north so he is not being inconsistent.
As the post clearly states, my biggest issue with the policy suggestions is the lack of acknowledgement of trade offs, brushing off the logistical issues and most of all, the sunlit uplands promised. This continues with Ryan who promised a normal Christmas in January if we went for Zero Covid.
