Now that the Delta variant is in and spreading, it is vital we continue to lock people in MHQ regardless

We have to keep variants out. Except the Delta variant, which is the only variant that actually might cause a bit of bother.
To that end I am glad to see tha Minister Donnelly has taken strong action and added Mongolia to the list of countries from where we will lock up incoming travellers for no reason.

The lovely Claire Byrne is very concerned about the delta variant. Wants us to reconsider opening up fully.
And round and round we go
There is reason to be genuinely concerned about indoor reopening. Especially because no guidance has been issued on ventilation, which is the key to making it safer. Itās a pity that no one could have possibly contemplated this before now. Oh wait.
Because its apparent and on opinion. They have sent the samples for screening but without any proof. Why make public statements like this without the proof?

If your so concerned maybe stay at home and nod along with Claire

They did the same thing with MHQ, claiming a case could be a VOC so they could report it as such. Itās fairly disingenuous but is all part of Comms/PR strategy.
Trouble is again that 20 year olds arenāt watching RTĆ. Guess they could go the TikTok awareness route again.

What sort of āspeculationā is fair game and what isnāt?
It seems that āspeculationā people donāt like is:
But speculation people like is:
Effectively the view of the majority posters on this forum seems to be: donāt say anything I donāt like.
Despite Varadkarās comments this morning that the delta variant is a cause for concern and not panic, and weāre still on course to resume indoor dining from July 5, I reckon this will ultimately be put back 3-4 weeks. Weāve been here before and I think thereās a sense of inevitability about it.
Mandatory Hotel Quarantine has been an abject failure

More of a farce than failure, it was never meant or expected to actually work.
