Yes to be honest I don't think MM would delay the reopening, too much of the economy now depends on this reopening with many planning holidays for after this date. Alan Kelly made the same point, a lot of the tourist industry is dependent on this reopening and that a small number of idiots in dame lane should not be allowed derail this.Leo had a approval rating of 75% on leaving office. It had doubled because of his handling of the pandemic.
MM will be looking for approval too. I’m not sure if repeating Leo’

There were 24 cases yesterday. Do we have a breakdown as to where these cases are? If not, why are we not being given more detailed information.With 58 cases confirmed in the last week, mostly in the community, plus an unknown number of asymptomatic carriers, how are you coming up with that figure? Within days of GAA training returning, there are already a number of teams forced into isolation after team members have tested positive.
Leo, where did you find the information about the GAA?
Was talking to a few friends yesterday - they mentioned people they knew had bumped into a lot of Americans in Kerry and other stories of people coming over from UK through the ports and staying at hotels.
Yes but we still need a tourism industry so hopefully not a return to the mini witch hunt that was going on in April towards outsiders. Leo varadker also made reference to this we don't need a new "valley of the squinting windows"
emmdee "The current policy is that anybody arriving to Ireland should isolate for 2 weeks "when ff mep billy kelleher flew in from Brussels for michael martins election to taoiseach without self isolating cant expect other to do it ,actually it went very quiet with all attention on cohan
New cases in their 20's for 3 days now.
Why are we not being told where and how these cases came about. More specifics needed.
I understand that there has been an outbreak in Killarney due to a house party.
Is the government trying to keep us all in a state of fear by not providing more details?
Yeah it's a mad case. Especially like it sounds like one person knew they were positive or travelled and found out he was positive down there. Where is the enforcement around that? They recently said that 35% of close contacts were refusing tests. Where is the enforcement of that? But social media hysteria around foreign travel and people standing around outside pubs has politicians and public health experts rushing to the airwaves.
One day last week something like two-thirds out of 20+ cases were connected to foreign travel directly or indirectly.
I'm not saying the cases were not linked to high risk areas, but this only happened on Thursday (3 days ago), so Tony didn't reveal anything about it.but that foreign travel was related to very specific high risk countries outside europe which Tony holohan revealed in an off the cuff remark
