Thereā€™ll be twice or three times as many house partyā€™s now in the next 6 weeks as there was back in March/April.

The house parties back then didnā€™t kick in properly until the May Bank Holiday.

Thereā€™s a bank holiday weekend coming up, do you seriously think young people are going to sit at home watching Netflix?

Same for every weekend throughout this sorry mess. They have no games to play/no work or college lectures for most/no pubs.

If you seriously think young people are going to comply like they did in March you can forget it.

They should organize massive outdoor raves for them like they did in the UK.

Yeah NPHET are working under the assumption of where we are at now it will take 3 weeks to get cases to 250 a day and another 3 weeks to get it to 50 a day. I dont see it myself but thats what their expert modellers are working off. I think you will see a lot less buy in. Cases will come down a small bit due to non essential shops being closed and less meeting points for people and they might feel validated in their approach but by mid January we will be up around a 1000 a day again.

The worst of all will be after 6 weeks when cases have fallen a bit to maybe 400 a day, Harris/Holohan etc will be out telling us Level 5 is working, we just need to redouble our efforts over Christmas as its too risky to relax any measure over the festive period.

If we work hard for 6 weeks, weā€™ll be allowed sing jingle bells in our parents garden for 10 minutes on Christmas Day.
