Thereâs a lot of posts, youâll have to trust me on it
Ireland has supposedly tested more per head of population than Italy, even though thatâs a complete lie spread by @Tim_Riggins when facts didnât suit him.
Italy has tested over 1000 people per million of population. Oh, if only we could have the low, low rate of 5 tests per million (plus 10k bills for the uninsured) that the US has gone with. Thatâs the optimum response, at least says the self professed âexpertâ on this forum. Well, certainly if you want to cover up the real figures.
Itâs about slowing it down. They had a chance by simply implementing travel restrictions or advisory warnings.
Whoever will die will die Iâm afraid. No point canceling anything
So it wasnât a problem until they put an official name on it?
Youâre making out like it was widely-known about. Go back a month and show me a post about it here for example

The vast majority of people who brought it back from Italy traveled there when it was believed to be perfectly safe to do so
Only got the father home last Tuesday after 4 months in hospital, he was in UH Waterford yesterday for a check-up ffs.
That is true. Were we talking about closing borders a month ago?
This fella always have the lowdown tbf to him. It doesnât hurt that heâs very lowdown himself.
Apparently the âexpertsâ arenât supposed to know any more than lads on a niche internet forum, at least if youâre to believe this fella.
TFK?
Post rationally and you donât get insulted - act like a cross between Jim Corr and a deranged Liveline caller and all bets are off
We were certainly talking about banning Cheltenham etc.
Youd hope the experts and decision makers would have a lead time of a few weeks on a bunch of nut jobs on a small internet forum.
Or are you expecting us to have the information at hand that the policy makers have ?
you can walk mate
Jesus you must have no self awareness
This place is generally ahead of the curve.
The decision makers have the information but you donât trust their judgement.
The Meath crew knew it wasnât safe but still went. Thatâs just one example. Rugby was cancelled 2 weeks ago so they knew at least a few days before that. Youâre talking possibly 3 weeks. Travel advisory/restrictions could have been implemented to have slowed it down.
Are you willing to accept that people will die unnecessarily so that you avoid economic pain?
