Totalitarian states tend to be able to enforce these types of things a little more efficiently than liberal democracies - they have some practise!
All air traffic to Denmark from areas severely hit by coronavirus, will cease later on today, the prime minister, Mette Frederiksen, has said.
“Effective from later today, all air traffic to Denmark from red areas will be suspended,” she said, referring to areas hard hit by the coronavirus such as northern Italy, Iran and South Korea.
I was in Lidl last night and there was no toilet rolls but there was plenty of wine. Some people really do have screwed up priorities.The cabinet sub committee speaking now will frighten many people. Queues at the shops very shortly.
The spread seems to be primarily person to person. The spraying is mainly for show.Every picture you see from China, South Korea etc have teams in full protective gear spraying everything that moves and doesn't move.
It sounds better that we have less cases this way.
They are reporting cases for the entire country, not just southern Ireland (I take it that you are referring to Munster and the bottom half of Leinster?). They are not reporting cases from Northern Ireland as it is part of the UK. By the same measure France are not reporting cases which are in Belgium.I notice that the Irish Government is publishing statistics of cases for Southern Ireland separate to Northern Ireland. It sounds better that we have less cases this way.
I think that they should be included together.
Do you not think that they should be reporting cases for the island of Ireland? Then break it down in to various areas/counties.I don't think that the Irish government can be held responsible for the cases in the North?
Why? We are aware of the cases in Northern Ireland but the Irish government and the Irish Health Service is only responsible for cases in Ireland (which, for clarity, is the name of this country).Do you not think that they should be reporting cases for the island of Ireland?

Trinners and the airlines dealt with it when it was too late. The virus got in there. Even if the guberment insisted on either of these they would probably have been told where to go unless they were willing to hand over the dosh they were going to lose.In Ireland it has often been left to the private sector/institutions to take action while the government buries its head in the sand. For example Trinity College followed many US universities by first by requiring quarantne for travelers for badly affected countries, and then moving lectures online (measures also attacked by Holohan in his press conference). NHI took a proactive stance and now finds itself being told to undo measures. The airlines themselves that have stopped flights to Italy rather than a government directive as in some other EU countries. No political leadership at all and a chief medical officer acting way beyond his remit and who seems to think he should be dictating policy for all public and private institutions.
