That candour has been the most refreshing part of the Irish Government handling of this so far. However I am now starting to pick a defensive vibe regarding Nursing Homes . It is evident that this one slipped below the collective radar, and they hoped rather than ensured these older...

I would agree. The concern I have is confined spaces ,which will not have much visible or UV light, and more humidity .Under those conditions, the virus remains viable for longer, and the dispersion as a cube of the separation approximation fails. But for a person walking down a semi deserted...

Taking the last statement.. Mr Raab is very much correct. There will be no business as usual.. but nothing to do with the sources of the virus

I did a few calculations on this topic a number of days ago. My conclusions are that if one is in a crowded location and forced into proximity with other people, wearing s mask is beneficial. However it is nowhere as effective as physical distance. So I look with amusement at a person, on their...

We have had an interesting case reported here in Ireland today ... A young man was stopped on two occasions in both cases for being away from his place of residence. This is the bit which was heavily publicised. However he had also no tax, insurance , had previously had his licence...

You know it might even be true. Not many of the NK spend January skiing in Italy. ,Very few are jetsetting between NYC LA, , Venice, Madrid and London. Any visits to China might not have allowed them access to Hubei over the critical time.

Tommie, in the interests of fairness perhaps you would post an update on the allegations against the Roscommon businessman ..see todays Irish Times For the rest of you.. 1. It appears that the Roscommon businessman was also a victim and an honest broker,and is cooperating fully and voluntarily...

Obviously population density is important. The majority of Ireland's cases are in the extended Dublin area where the population might be towards 2 million. But failure to communicate a message clearly to the general public could have reduced the incidence and severity. What is noteworthy..and...

You did not refer to sharing a bottle ...

What is your complaint? That young people were on a golf course?..I can understand that that would be distressing. That they were drinking alcohol? Were they social distancing?. Our local beach..which is miles deep was locked up on the weekend to deter visitors, was still locked up by today. I...

Sorry Flecc, I must disagree. They should be suggesting the game plan ,but of course nit putting dates on it. For instance Operation Overlord was being planned from 1942 ,and the dates were very flexible ..but the sequence was not. So for instance I could see a catalogue of decisions such as ...

Barry, your understanding of crop picking may well be out of date. A typical arrangement is to have a platform mounted on the rear of a tractor and the pickers.. multiple .. lie prone on this as it moves along the furrows. The spacing between rows and the hight of the platform being...

Well even I was writing in Welsh, .. But was before I learned to spell..

Nev, if you read my various postings from End February, you will see how closely it mirrors her report. We were getting information from the Government in mid to later February. My wife and I had purchased tickets for a concert scheduled for 15 March , last October, but by 4th. March had...

..wait till she wears that yellow jump suit and the oxygen tank full Hazmat gear.

.. You need to continue with the piece that arrests have been made . That practice of fraud is dispicable, as of course was the people trafficking faciliated by the Craigavon haulier ,which resulted in 30 dead Vietnamese. Going back to the metal, it may not matter... The only places I have...

I suggest putting those cotton ones in a plastic bag..or a pyrex bowl with lid and 4 minutes in the microwave ... Marinated with a tablespoon of water. That steam will sterilise anything...

SW... How long does it take to have a death registered?. Your graphic is extremely misleading.. we are now in Mid April . The total number of admitted CV19 deaths in the first three months to 13 March was .... 10. So the number of admitted CV19 deaths is 12000 in one month.. but now at a rate...

Certainly in RoI the figures include Care Homes.. Just one of those things,I am bizzarly grateful that an aunt, for whom I had PoA died late February, and had been in a care home, ..at least we had the full family funeral... I shared a car with English cousin and her family, including a young...

Yes. The stationary shops selling to schools. The old OHP acetates were the business. HP would have had a line of these for use with Inkjet printers and then mylar based ones for Laser Printers... Using an Acetate in a Laser printer was a quick way to destroy the drum.
