If the vaccines are supplied youād imagine this could and will be done in jig time
Iād imagine, once youāve the 20% of the most at risk vaccinated, hospitalisation etc should fall dramatically and we can all go back to some sort of normality

Might it also be true that it may be in a countries longer term interests for the majority to not be vaccinated to build up that old herd immunity?
The risk is even with vaccine a consensus emerges that vaccination does not prevent transmission and masks and social distancing are with us til end of 2022.
I hate and I mean hate the phrase āsome sort of normalityā. It drives me demented.
I want it all back. Pubs, Crowds, Festivals, everything.

There will be a lot of stakeholder invested here, we already know who they are for the most part. I suppose you are just hoping the general public will get sick of it all sooner rather than later if they keep peddling the fear angle even post vaccine

Ah I see you have corrected that decimal
Hopefully thereās a massive Garda operation ready to go here in case any pub or restaurant stays open until half three.
Walking around city centre for last hour with a sleeping baby on my bosom - didnāt see a single (gastro)pub or restaurant open, most had signs up saying they were closing on 23rd.
Surely the army will have to be mobilised
This seems to be going from bad to worseā¦ Thereās so much information doing the rounds from multiple different sources with different agendas itās hard to know what is really the state of play. @Tankās postings from his scientists friend could be the one that tips the world over the edge.
Of course these headlines of - new strain āMAYā be more transmissible / dangerous for kids - is the kind of bullshit we can all do without. Itās bad enough we have Herr Holohan giving it the bigāun on the airwavesā¦ we donāt need Nazis sympathisers going nuts in the home to go with it.
Iāve largely ignored the news and what not for the last 6 months and was all the better for itā¦ A few days of following this shite on TV and radio recently has put a right damp squid on my Christmas mood.
Iām starting s new job in January, fuck knows how thatās gonna go.
Bastards.

If you can keep your head when all those around you are losing theirsā¦ Youāll be a man, my son.
Thereās better days ahead lads.
When this all over Iām going to buy me a farm.
