Virology is not my thing, so I asked my daughter,fresh from her masters in genetics. The best way of looking at viruses is as a factory with incredibly poor quality control. When a virus actually gets into a cell ..in itself a relatively improbable event, only made likely by incredibly large...

There is a virologist in TCD .Luke O Neill,is his name, He has been on the button with every toss and turn of this pandemic over the last year, . His view, which I would have confidence in is that any of the three vaccines is well capable of handling any of the minor mutations which occur. If...

As a item of historical interest it was ok.. this is years old.

Absolutely yes.... Even British distribution networks to NI have stated that there will be surcharges or cessation of service from the Manchester warehousing, and NI will be serviced from their RoI systems. ..at added cost. Basically they are not prepared to set up customs declarations for a...

The motor is usually ok with the voltage..it is current which hurts them. It is the controller which is both current and voltage sensitive. You wanted to know how they work.. well it is sort of like this . A DC voltage is applied to the controller. It has typically 3 sets of transistor...

Not really ..that was last March. The shares at 16 quid are now only 2quid below their peak value over the last half decade. The markets reckon they will survive,and hoover up the minnows,who did not have as deep pockets. And of course the Boeing MAX return will not hurt them.

News just in... Well late yesterday. The DUP ..the staunchest allies of the Tory party will be voting AGAINST the UK/EU FTA tomorrow. So while their numbers are very depleted since the last Westminster election , and unlikely to affect any outcome.. particularly since Labour will support the...

No Barry. There are always two concepts fighting away in every person .. the Leonard Cohen Song the Partisan gets it exactly right ..". I will help you if I can,I will kill you if I must ". The British establishment got it so wrong in March , they used pseudo science to convince themselves...

I have no or very little interest in discussing the personalities of UK politicians . However I possibly have more faith in the good sense of the British people than you have. I believe had they been leveled with early on and given clear guidance, they would have behaved ok. When you treat...

I am truly sorry to hear that . whatever the excuses for March, they ran a bit thin by August. i was horrified by the notion of giving people vouchers to spend on accommodation and touring

I have read the offending section and other sections . on one level it is still OK ,in that it it is using these as a examples and does link to other software. But on every other level it is utterly absurd. Putting entire lists of crimes in numerical format or data structure formats in a...

Really so what?. Basically unless a UK organisation or person accepts money for an EU contract, they don't get audited . If at some time in the future the UK decided to join ERASMUS , then the ECJ can audit the accounts of that entity.

I think the FO is actually correct... If one reads the request as listed on a passport, it gives a citizen no right in another country and merely asks the other country to give them passage.

All the more reason to park the deal, do due diligence, and pass a holding extension for 3 months as the EU would have facilitated...

I really do disagree. The Irish are a lot more independently minded than the British . We had essentially a lot less going for us .. a government which was a totally minority one , and had been booted out of power, but because the other parties could not agree on the coalition were still in...

I must disagree. The UK was in the best position in Europe in February. It could legally have shut borders and airports ..it was out of the EU. They could have stopped all tourism in and out, a fumigated lorries at the ports . I did refer back to that at the time. Trade would have been hurt...

Zlatan, I was equally apprehensive in October, but they kept the Cat lab very well away from other locations , and insisted in CV19 tests prior to admission. We patients were the only ones unmasked, everything and everyone else was within very strict protocols. A dodgy ticker will stop you a...

My sympathies on the cardiac trouble flecc. I have to think I just dodged the bullet on that one in October.

Again not dissimilar. There is a beauty spot along the Cote Sauvage near Quiberon, which I quite fancy.. crashing waves , view over to Belle Ils. So we parked car, took the picnic ,my daughter and I and sat on the rocks for a while . We saw the Town Police ..they are not exactly the Gendarme...

The real problem was the pleteara of confusing messages
