How many would have died in Ireland if a sensible strategy had been pursued like Sweden and the effort put into infectious controls in hospitals and nursing homes rather than the nonsensical measures taken? Answer the question coward.

According to medical experts in the UK it is unsafe to reopen due to the dangers of the Delta variant. The flip flopping maniac Fauci is warning we cannot allow it into the US, even though it’s already here. Vaccines are less effective against this variant than prior variants. It is only a matter of time before another variant emerges that vaccines are useless against, that’s how viruses evolve.

Should Ireland stay in lockdown until the Delta variant is gone? Should Ireland stay in lockdown because it is virtually certain a variant will emerge that current vaccines will not work against.

Have you gone back to the office yet? I think you predicted January 2022, you should update it to January 2024.

“Variants of concern.” “Variants under investigation.”

I’m beginning to think the term “variants” is being thrown out there to scare the shit out of people. When a virus (any virus) enters a human, the virus will automatically mutate multiple times. If there are 29,000 letters in the genetic code and only a handful of them change, our immune systems can still see the whole in a three-dimensional way, and can subsequently deal with them. These “variants” do not cause new diseases.

No, no. We must remain locked down and maintain the covid management processes.

Don’t allow them in. Ireland clearly doesn’t need the 3B :euro: in medical supplies and pharmaceuticals imported from the UK each year, or the 4B :euro: in food.

They cause a variant of the existing disease. Covid -21 is just about to launch, Covid-19 was just the trial run.

Seeing as Paddy always follows John Bull, Ireland will be in lock-down this day week as the delta variant is out of control

Tony will have the Dubs caged up in their sweltering flats, while the delta variant parties on the streets like it’s 1999.

Why is every new variant “much more transmissible”?

Because it sounds scarier and it’s an excuse to push out the sunset clause on Part 3 of the Health Preservation Act.

That trial music event at the Iveagh Gardens looks a pile of scutter, with the individual pods.

You say Sweden had a sensible approach and Ireland’s was a shitshow. They had a 40% higher death rate than Ireland. Your definition of sensible is different to people who place life ahead of the dollar. You’re a strange one.

You’ve lost the plot big time.

A sensible approach to restrictions. They did no better than Ireland in protecting their elderly in nursing homes, actually maybe worse. A staggering 70% of Sweden’s deaths in the first wave from Mar - May were in nursing homes, an abject failure in a country where people pay some of the highest taxes in the world.

I’ve already pointed out at least 10 times to you the primary reason for Swedish vs Irish death rate. Sweden has a much older population, 21% are over 65 (2100k) compared to Ireland’s 13% (650k). If the same percentage died in the various age groups, Ireland and Sweden’s death rate is roughly the same.

Anyway I’m done with this as you don’t have the balls to back up your claim of much higher deaths if a sensible and logical approach had been taken.

I can’t think why PCRs might be required for travel.

Looks like one of McConkey’s fantasies. He was actually on the radio a while back talking about having Slane next year with everyone sitting metres apart from each other on their own rug.

The FDA are highlighting an unauthorised test that is in circulation warning people not to use it. Its got nothing to do with anything FFS. The kind of incoherent argument you’d expect from an anti vaxxer or something. You are better than that mate.
