China Coronavirus

The clowns in the north have lost it and don't know what to do
4 week lockdown them let things rip for a week followed by a 2 week circuit breaker
The health secretary only after saying people going out to shop from Friday will be risking having to self isolate over Christmas and that nobody wants that. But ok fire the kids onto school
They have lost it and don't know what to do.

I'm not happy to see South Armagh rise up the Covid league table, it is almost as bad as East Tyrone and Ballymena, places we have nothing in common with.

Not often that I agree with you.

Wains should be at school

[Rossfan]

Schools weren't a problem in the 26.
227 cases here today - equivalent to around 75 in the North.

Defeated the purpose of a total lockdown to let 1/5th of the North mix freely, daily in classrooms in the middle of it and take whatever home.

Two weeks wouldn't have done them any harm off. Infact, it's proving quite the opposite.

It's becoming a bit of a joke now that people are refusing to accept there is an issue in the schools.

Maybe you weren't paying attention during the sums at school, this is more like 88 in the 6 counties, so the latter is only 5.5 times worse!

What's the hospitalised figures? How many ventilators are left?

No evidence

Drop in the ocean especially when weighed against benefits . No evidence it contributed to hospital figures We had 100 plus in factory not a peep . To be honest each to their own seems to be the guidance now over next few weeks with schools. I'll making sure my wains are there.

[RadioGAAGAA]

No evidence it contributed to hospital figures

Yes, because its clear they cannot pass it on - self evident really by how much its clear it doesn't spread in schools.

... and because they cannot pass it on, their parents or grandparents will definitely not catch it and definitely not end up in hospital.

Regarding the factory, absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.


The problem with democracy is everyone's opinion is equal.

Not sure what you are saying there but sounds good anyhow

[GetOverTheBar]

Nobody is arguing that children should be denied education. But since the North especially has this issue with the same numbers, no matter what it seems to do. Would it not have been prudent to take the step of closing the schools for 2 weeks when everything else done it? (Remember in summer.....there was hardly a death for weeks, seems so far away now).

It just seems ludicrous at this stage absolutely everything else of any risk is immediately closed. But we stay silent and accept that schools are basically the staging point for Covid spread now?
