Private Covid tests may not detect virus and shouldnât be treated as a Christmas quick-fix, HSE chief warns
Itâs clearly an anti craic/drink issue so
Their own tests are giving false positives and false negatives and they canât count the poor fuckers dying so itâs all the same really.

They are all now entitled to the CRSS for as long as they are closed which is basically 10% of turnover⌠This is since last lockdown kicked in
They can also claim the wage subsidy scheme for their staff.
They will also be entitled to full rates waiver from March to end of year for starters
And a restart grant worth the value of their 2019 rates bill
None of above is repayable
There are plenty pubs around the place financially away better off now than they would be trading
