Covid-19: Pubs closed, curfew and working at home return in Ireland
November 16th 2021

New Covid-19 restrictions in the Republic of Ireland are due to "another surge" of the virus
Micheál Martin said the "advice is now that everyone should work from home unless it is absolutely necessary".

Mr Martin also confirmed an earlier closing time of midnight for bars, restaurants and nightclubs from Thursday.

Mr Martin, speaking in a TV address on Tuesday night, said if the number of Covid infections continues to grow at the current rate "no health system would be able to cope".

"This is the fourth surge - but it is different - and the vaccination programme has allowed us to keep society open," Mr Martin said.

He also announced that Covid-19 close contacts who are fully vaccinated and showing no symptoms should restrict their movements until they have three negative test results within five days.

The total number of deaths linked to Covid-19 in the Republic of Ireland since the start of the pandemic is 5,566.

Smallpox yellow fever polio all went away with vaccine because it was natural virus but covid 19 just like hiv has no cure as it is man made. Almost 40 years an no cure for hiv. This is world war 3 we are in. Wave after wave will come, shot after shot they will give you until your blood so tainted it wont support life. All the vaxxed might have to die to stop the spread. We didnt heve so much cases before the jabs arrived

[aaron17]

Seen this circulating on whatsapp. I guess to bring more panic. Is it true you get random joint pain? Like knee pain jus soo? Ahh yes the modern day chain letter.


*SHARING AS RECEIVED...*

FYI

PLEASE “USE YOUR MASKS BECAUSE NEW COVID-DELTA
IS DIFFERENT, DEADLY & UNDETECTABLE:
With the new COVID DELTA VIRUS there is:
NO COUGH
NO FEVER
Just a lot of:
JOINT-PAIN
HEADACHE
NECK PAIN
UPPER BACK PAIN
PNEUMONIA
GENERAL WEEKNESS
NO APPETITE
COVID-DELTA is of course, more Virulent and with a higher Death rate.
It takes less time to go to extremes, Sometimes without symptoms.
Let's be more careful!
This strain does not live in the nasopharyngeal region, now it directly affects the Lungs, which means the "Windows", the periods of time are shorter.
I have seen several patients without FEVER, without PAIN, but who report mild CHEST PNEUMONIA on their X-RAYS.
NASAL SWAB TESTS are very often NEGATIVE for COVID-DELTA, and there are more and more false negatives of NASOPHARYNGEAL TESTS.
This means that the VIRUS spreads and spreads directly to the LUNGS, causing acute respiratory stress caused by VIRAL PNEUMONIA.
This explains why it has become sharp, more virulent and deadly.
Please be more careful, avoid crowded places, keep a distance of 1.5m even in open places, use double masks, face mask and wash your hands often (and when coughing or sneezes) at the moment everyone is ASYMPTOMATIC.
This * "WAVE" * is much more deadly than the first. So we have to be VERY careful and take * all kinds of precautions *
Also be an alert communicator to your friends and family.
Don't keep this information to yourself, share it as much as you can, especially with your family and friends.”

people vex with businesses and business owners

but like allyuh forgetting that bars employ A LOT of people

i have a padna with a bar in kelly who had 25 workers
for the first 6 months of being forced to close he still paid them their full salary because he thought things would reopen soon

after that he had to start telling them he cant afford to keep paying when he dunno how things going

imagine 25 families with no income because of just one bar
then it have the people who would sell food outside the bars


endless families normally live month to month,
people real suffering financially

[widdyphuck]

SOE ends today.
What numbers we expecting today?

[st7]

damn... finally caught up reading and this is my summary:

1. antivaxxers want everywhere to close down because THEY cannot go to the safe zones. so they stay in their SOUR zones and make noise about it online

2. lockdown is coming because xmas time is the best --- everyone shops a lot in groceries for xmas. the 1% owns the majority of distribution companies supplying all groceries with items, and they make a huge killing. when people say 'the govt dunno what they doing' as proclaimed by many people here and on social media -- they never see the big picture. the lockdowns are planned because the 1% benefit big time from it, and 1% owns the govt. but keep allyuh eyes closed to dont see the corruption, and keep on complaining

3. for all you frothers

Country can't take a next lockdown bro. Running on dregs right now.

that is true, but it is coming.

there's a schedule to be met which is why MoE push for schools to open back up and, against all logic, say all students hadda attend school vaxxed or unvaxxed. then there is the public servants coming back out which people have point out as nonsensical.

if you making enough money to become a trini millionaire in 2 years, and it going on 6 years running with 4 more to go, you gonna kiss 1% ass and follow orders no matter how illogical it is.

ask hover about it -- once money involved, morals go out the window.

all u antivaxxers still seeing the small picture still thinking govt out to sabotage you

I see reading and understanding is not one of your strengths where did I EVER blame businesses for such, they indulge the nonsensical idea of safe zones now bawling they not making, take it dont cry over your decision now, if all business came together and said NO to safe zones there would be no safe zones but carry on

What bar employs 25 people?
My uncle next door used to run one since I was a child up to 2008. And there are two fairly busy bars next to each other around 4 houses away from me and I can tell you neither one has that much workers.

[Chimera]

if you use facebook and read the comments anytime they talk about covid deaths or a vaccinated person dying
its probably 9/10 people against vaccines and talking about conspiracy and "d guavament lying and chyin tuh kill we poor pee-ple"
it amazing how stupid people are

they using the 56 vaccinated deaths as proof that vaccines dont work
they completely ignoring the 97% of deaths were unvaccinated

no wonder religion and iml and organo gold and pyramid schemes so profitable down here

most people are idiots

Trinidad isn't Europe, North America, Israel. You need to pick a side and stick to it - then take the lumps.

consider a bar that has roulette machines, 3-4 security to watch the roulette, security outside in the car park for customers, 3-4 bartenders and 6 or so waiters
open 22 out of 24 hours for the day so two shifts of workers

people from kelly would know which bar i talking about
