Surely Kiely is a better bet
I could be famous.
Gabriel Scally on tonightās Matt Cooper. Tomas Ryan last night.
No attempt of any balanced debate at all?
Anthony Daly as Minister for Pints.
Munster for pints
Balanced debate went out the window since Christmas. The medical scientist germaphobes and inveterate social misfits are in charge now.

Itās an unusual state of affairs watching Matt Cooper tonight. Twitter is bad but at least you have some debate. Matt Cooper is basically joking to a 25 year old solid 7.5/10 from Limerick who hasnāt got a ride in a year as she is sticking to covid 19 protocols.
Was east Germany as bad back in the day?

Oh come back Paddy Reilly to Ballyjamesduff.
Come home Paddy Reilly to me
That Ferrero rocher stuff was singled out on the wireless thereā¦literally full of palm oil. The posh bird on the bbc food programme said it fucks with the omega 3 and 6 fatty acid balance. Youāre literally killing people Mike, killing them.
Covid would be a gift in comparison

And killing the planet donāt forget.
Palm oil is the main cause for the Amazon rainforest being felled.
Lovely gift of a Valentineās morning though
Covid is a cod so itās probably full of omega 3 as well in fairness.

Stopped twice by state troopers on my way to the crĆØche.
In ten years time when weāre all properly barricaded into our homes with food being dropped off to us weāll marvel at the freedom we once had to leave our homes without lengthy jail sentence and a fine of 1,000 BTC.

Re Tony H Bandage asking
Tonino wanted internal review in 2018 lead by emā¦himselfā¦but Simon Harris & Tony OBrien went for Scally report and then big time Royal College of Obstetricians UK review.
Now he would have been getting strong inside info that cervicalcheck v strong and unlike the other two would understand screening. Like itās not looking a red dot thatās right or wrong itās interpretation & reporting. Also he said his fear was that confidence in programme undermined for no real reason.
The big q was did Cervicalcheck have more false negative readings than other programmes. Was there something up? Vicky and media said yes.
Bombshell finding was when massive UK lead
RCOG review in, and it found programme performing effectively. Comparable with UK which is running 20 years. Vindicating Tony?
So you have a collision course now with every doctor in country saying cervicalcheck is as good as it can be &
that screening works overall on a population & retrospective bias. A smear isnāt black and white to begin with itās a judgement.
The reviewers knew person had cancer so weāre looking for that - different than when one of thousands.
& now anyone who develops cancer who previously had a smear test can now sue.
Breast check started to get a load of litigation after this so they started going bananas.
Re negligence and apologising for misreadings Scally found no issues in labs, said keep using US ones. Big thing for Scally was people should have been told audit result even if it was just used for quality control in programme. He thinks people donāt sue if explained to?
Bear in mind to this day only now ourselves and UK disclose audit of a programme audit. Rest of Europe donāt.
Meantime one of the women went overboard for Tony H on Twitter. He sent a letter saying it was baseless allegations and not to repeat. She went to media so optics were he is shutting up patient advocate. Alan Kelly started palling in with Vicky & they are big alliance now on health. Peadar Toibin tried to jump on & went on about stopping mistakes but someone in his office tweeted out a letter from Noirin Russell explaining it to him.
