Coronavirus Thread - Pause before - The Final Battle (Part 1)

@Tank toned it down a bit I thought

He ran for Fine Gael in local elections before. I’d say his view is shared privately by plenty of FG members, but they’re on this horse now and there doesn’t appear to be any turning back.

Report this morning:

The HSE is to ask people who received a positive test result last weekend to alert their own close contacts.

Because they’re so backed up and under-resourced. They literally can’t contact trace.

This is the reason we’re in lockdown, despite attempts to pit people against people by the usual suspects.

It’s beyond the beyonds really, especially when you consider they stood hundreds of people down from contact tracing in the summer and never bothered to ramp up again.

It’s literally a job anybody out of work could do. Follow a script and complete the template as you’re having the chat.

Ridiculous ineptitude and mismanagement by those in charge.

When exactly?
This is fuckin shambolic.

@MountLeinster

I read before that Dr Glynn wrote 3 times over the summer to the HSE in increase the contact tracing.

So they’re all still writing each other letters in this day and age. Do these guys not have meetings where they go through items like this?

[Heyyoubehindthebushes]

They bring in level 5 as they made a balls of every plan. It would take FF to ruin the country as they couldn’t run a bath

@the_man_himself

The anti lockdown SF lads on here should bear that in mind though when they’re complaining about FFG

But but but…SF

NPHET can afford to cost economy literally billions a week but cannot afford to properly contact trace.

NPHET is the HSE in a surgical mask.

It is ridiculous, but you write letters so you have copies, they are signed for and the other crowd can’t say they weren’t received or read or delivered. Standard enough really.

I do enjoy the thoughts of NPHET made up almost entirely of senior members of the HSE & the department of health writing a letter to themselves basically. Popping it in the letter box, smiling triumphantly and exclaiming we can’t do much more

Headed to the gym for the last time. Can’t go to the pub, to a restaurant, can’t visit my family, can’t go to a hurling match, can’t go on holiday, can’t decide who is or isn’t allowed into the apartment I rent (thank god rent is so cheap in Dublin) and can’t go more than 5k without justifying it to a police officer.

This will be remembered at the ballot box

Yet when the focus is on government and there decision makin process, you prefer to talk about an opposition party with no power to make any policy choice. It would be odd but we know you have an agenda.

[maroonandwhite]

Government fears Nphet will seek new lockdown after Christmas break

Who’s in charge exactly?

I have written at length my dissatisfaction at the government. My post was making the point that no opposition party being willing to question any NPHET decisions is not helping matters
