I’m fully vaccinated and recieved a positive test result today. I have copd and I’m 73 so it was a shock. At the moment it’s like a cold fingers crossed it doesn’t get any worse
@Lovett Jan: best wishes for a speedy recovery Jan
@Lovett Jan: who said that you could not get it? It’s a vaccine, not a bulletproof vest
@Lovett Jan: hopefully your symptoms will be mild. Best of luck & hope you make a speedy recovery.
Stop the count!!
@TheKloppKop: quiet. Stop reading the page. Some people are interested.
@TheKloppKop: I initially misread that and thought you were making a disparaging remark about Tony Holohan…
@William Tallon: That was a “spat my tea out”comment:):)
@Karl Mc Cauley: say you’re a great laugh at a party.
So what is it now civid toes, covid teeth what is going on sudo science everytjhing now is covid, anyone copping on this is all, just major fear mongering & if you have not caught on to it by now there is no hope for you
@JK: Fearmongering for what purpose. I’ve just had look at your Twitter account. Your spelling is all over the place, but your naivety is just stunning.
@JK: Well put
@Sean O’Doherty: I know I should proof read my comments b4 posting, I keep for getting, got to get a new key board the keys stick sometimes, but well we all have our own ideas on what is going on, but mine come from my own experiences of being anti pharmaceutical, where do your’s come from mainline media?
@Keith Fay: Thanks but your man is right got to make sure the spelling is correct
@JK: ‘Sudo science’, is that Dolores Cahill’s new range of creams?
@JK: they are side affects of having Covid-19, they have been known about for a long time. They are being investigated more as there is time to do so.
@JK: So your anti vax, say no more
@JK: “Mainline media”? Sounds like it’s not the only thing you’re mainlining…
Stop the notifications on numbers
@Ciaran O ‘Reilly: or you could simply stop reading the article and scroll to the next one. You do realise no-one is forcing you to read any article in the Journal, they even conveniently display a headline so you can figure out the rough content prior to opening, how useful.
@D. Memery: it’s the alerts notifications he’s on about if you cared to actually read his post instead of pontificating to him. Twit.
Trending downwards by -14% so that is good news. It is going to take a lot longer than anybody could have imagined.
Some countries are in a total mess like the UK with over 40,000 thousands cases today.
Just stick to the plan as we are grtting , slowly and frustratingly so but surely.
@Gary Kearney: the plan is to open up and get on with life.
Remember when there were 14 in ICU
So this is the new normal then? Cases haven’t gone up on ages
Toof hucks I could not give.
@Susan McMahon: Please stay away from people then.
@Paul Mcnevin: consider it done.
Why is it that people who don’t want to get the vaccine are called anti vaxers surely people have a right to do what they think its right for them without ignorant people abusing them
@Margaret Kane: well why would they find it insulting to be called anti-vaxxers if they are against taking the vaccine? Surely they stand by their right to be anti-vaccines
@Elaine Phelan: everyone has a right to do what’s best for them just because they don’t want the vaccine which is their right doesn’t mean people like you should forma opinion about them and call them names but then again ignorant people like you thrive on name calling
@Margaret Kane: calling someone anti vaxx for being anti vaxx is not an insult it’s a fact , could also call you anti science and that would still be factual , if I wanted to be mean I would calm you a tinfoil hatter
have your say
