What about Texas Covid??
Fauci can’t quite explain it
Open this 5 weeks fully
No masks no social distance
Full house at a baseball match
Cases plummeted??
Even the great Milly won’t be able to explain that one

Stop testing please

I will tell you this now. If we had no furlough life would have been back to normal a long time ago and the daily updates would be scrapped
Why can u not answer me?
Why have we had not 1 flu this year?
Not 1
Michael Martin had an event on December 19th with at least 30 in attendance where masks were mandatory at the time and indoor events were forbidden but yet he gets away with it
They are taking the piss at this stage both north and south
O Neill attends a funeral with thousands but the general public can
Wise up Milly
Enough is enough

There wasn’t 1 single flu recorded this year. Do you not think the positive covid cases were in fact a flu?
Why didn’t our cases go through the roof when we opened up in June last year? We had affectively every single thing open in June July august and September?
Work that one out

The flu season that one
Ya know the people that really starts coming to the fore from November right through to March and then dies down to very manageable cases throughout the rest of the year
Although we will never stop flu cases in ye summer months but we just get on with it
That season

I think in time some decisions that were made will look appalling
Rte draconian nature of some stuff uncalled for
Primary schools now back 1 month and nothing in the slightest of a rise in cases. Primary schools if nothing else should have stayed open
Outdoor activities should have continued
Cafes and retail should have continued
Let’s be real here the spike in both waves coincided with pubs and restaurants opening
Other than that we had a consistent stream of cases
I still maintain that it’s seasonal also
13 months into this pandemic they have decided to open walk in testing clinics in the South. Why?
Looking for cases
I’ll leave you with this
12000 tested yesterday in the North with 80 positive and no hospitalisation needed
End this madness
And still a further 2 weeks before they even discuss what to open next

Nice one php
Great read
The north’s numbers are very good at present
What is the hold up from the executive
They meet every Monday and Thursday which in itself is shocking
And not meeting until the 15th to see what is the next stage to be lifted
What’s the hold up
If furlough wasn’t around we would have uproar

Cases should not be the driving force here any longer. Hospital admissions are away down. The numbers in hospital are dropping say 5 per day overall which is very encouraging
A lot of scaremongering amongst BBC and RTE reporters. I would say that they would have got a bit of fame out of this pandemic that they never would have. RTE news ratings apparently through the roof
It sells to be negative
The north wil have double figures in hospital today
Also deaths are at 1 every 2 days
Celebrity McBride and Robbie Swann swarmed by paparazzi as the received the vaccine
I would say they can’t believe the publicity the are getting
Stop the scaremongering lads
What does Milly think

O Neill do you not think we are now a few months ahead of the European country’s?
What we were getting towards the end of November December and January?
My reading of it is they are now getting the Kent Variant

We are going at a snails pace for reopening
What’s the odds when golf courses open we are in the same position as today?
150 cases per day and 0-2 deaths per day.
I really can’t see it getting any better
1 million total vaccinations will be very close to hitting the 1 million target by the end of week 1 in April
A great achievement
Another small lockdown next winter is likely
Be ready for it
Milly and the lads will get a few weeks off towards the end of the year

Realistically in terms of numbers the wee 6 is not going to get any better
150 cases per day and 0-2 deaths per day
I really can’t see things getting any better
Cases has bottomed out at that and with the reopening happening soon it could rise to 300 per day
Would that be a reasonable number to continue life?
The big difference now and last year is the vaccine
People go on about lockdowns being applied again in many European countries but those same European countries will continue with outdoor dining and drinking
Milly all indications here is that it’s some kind of seasonal thing. If it wasn’t seasonal why are they experts telling us some kind of small lockdowns will be applied again in November? Can you explain that one

So does all 9 sectors move to level 2 tomorrow?
That’s the biggest question
Lowest numbers of cases in the wee 6 for 7 months
Will they throw us any curve balls tomorrow that’s the question
The must move

No deaths in Ireland reported yesterday
Great news
We have to go back to early September almost 6 months

As expected on Tuesday the executive will move to phase 2 of the roadmap.
The right call

So it seems Wales and Scotland have raced ahead of us with the reopening and England with a clear plan and also all school kids back in
Wales now allowed all outdoor sports to resume from today and hairdressers open from Monday
Scotland outdoor sports never stopped
England to start the bug reopening in 2 weeks time

Big indications from Foster that Tuesday will see us move to level 2 in most of the 9 sectors
Considering we have a further 3 levels after that and the numbers we have level 2 was the least we expected on Tuesday

Cases have plateaued at around the 170 seven day average which really is as good as it’s going to get
If we can keep things below 3/400 cases in the next few months we are doing well

As per what the vaccine said the number of people entering hospital on the back of covid have plummeted and with the role out moving fast that should only improve. Over 650000 first doses given out and a further 200000 expected by the end of March. We could see 60% of the adult population jabbed in 2 weeks. Amazing achievement by the NHS

NUMBERS

Hospital 180
ICU 25
Cases per week 2/300
Vaccines 650000 first


2 options on Tuesday

Lift nothing and really blow the hopes and motivation of the public
Lift some restrictions to give everyone a lift


We are in a much better place than pre Christmas opening

Christmas
20000 vaccinated
600 cases per day
All open with the exception of pubs
Streets packed
Better weather
Hospitals generally under pressure November-March
Household mixing


Anyone who says looked what happened when we opened Christmas don’t

It will be hard for Celebrity McBride to let go

Plenty of real life evidence that it stops transmission
If I was putting 2 and 2 together I would say the outbreak at Belfast city hospital last week has something to do with ye high number of deaths Wednesday and Thursday?

A big day Tuesday for the executive. Will any restrictions be lifted?
By then we are likely to have double figures in hospital if the drop rate continues. 170 approx in now
At what numbers in hospital is it hard not to start lifting restrictions.
By Easter we have the potential of as low as 10 or 20 in hospital

Celebrity McBride doom and gloom on again about don’t plan anything for Patrick’s day or Easter. Then it will be May Day. Then the 12th and so on
4 people admitted to hospital today in a population of 1.9 millions
Our biggest order of vaccines has arrived
Only 50 over 85s have passed away on four consecutive days in the uk in January that number was 597. And I say that with the upmost respect to each of those
When is celebrity McBride going to give us some hope
Any hope
Just something to cling onto
