Seriously, are there people who still believe you canât get Covid after vaccination??
I thought that was cleared up months ago, and now weâre laughing at people for contracting a virus?
Was chatting to a pal of mine back from NY this week. He was last here in 2020 before vaccines and at that stage he was wearing a mask on the street here (as they did in NY at time ) and was quite nervous about things. At the time mask wearing here was only coming into place and nobody wore one outside.
He said his attitude post vaccine was he was now as protected as he could be and a mask offered no additional protection indoors or outdoors and that US was more or less back to normal life. He was stunned at the hysteria here and the dominance of Covid on news and everywhere he turned.
I think theyâll pull it quick enough,tbh.
Look at the 7,333 cases reported yesterday.(Even though I read somewhere 3k of those were older ones)
Thatâs all the ammunition they need and Iâd guarantee you the Chief Misery Officer would have had a horn you could hang the washing on when that figure was released.The scaldy killjoy hoor.
Irelandâs Covid coverage is definitely unique. We are not the only ones to lose our minds over it and to react a bit hysterically at time, but the relentless nature in Ireland is interesting.
Iâm curious on what would/will happen in Ireland once masks are dropped. My experience is that it doesnât matter how clued in a population is, they will drop masks quickly once they arenât mandated. They will go back on when people are a bit scared over cases. That is my experience of the East Coast and the U.K. at least in the last few months from going back and forth a bit. Ireland has just been non stop, though with an undercurrent of widespread âruleâ breaking over the summer. Many were happy enough to keep places closed for the illusion of safety whilst breaking the the rules in their homes at any chance they got.
The attitude that you are vaccinated but can do no more is the healthy one to take. That was my relatives attitude at Thanksgiving.
I couldnât believe the amount of paper and radio ads in the last few weeks about cancelling meet ups and parties. It was relentless. Rte may top last years 5m profit this year
