This afternoon.
Dublin city centre.
The government is considering a late May reopening for personal services including hairdressers and barbers…
…however…
A few Government sources trying to dampen down or quell reports suggesting outdoor hospitality could return on the week of May 24.
All discussions until now are looking at week starting June 1st, they say – if feasible, they’ll do it, but also waiting to hear NPHET’s input first

Those optics may be debatable, but it may also be a deliberate tactic by the Government to formalise what is already happening – better to allow pubs trade formally (and open the toilets) with no scope of allowing people gather indoors, the way they might do at a relative’s home

This evening.
Anyone?
Hic.
More dithering.
Can we please start following the science that seems to be working out fine for Texas, Florida etc. instead of whatever science NPHET are following?
that the science that says pregnant women are in danger sitting beside a person who’s been vaccinated? No thanks.
Feck all that WHEN ARE THE LIBRARIES OPENING I NEED BOOKS. Borrowbox is great for audiobooks but I can’t stand e-books I need physical books you can carry under your arm hold over your head to keep the rain off use as a fan in hot weather stand on to reach a high shelf clobber a zombie with and occasionally read.
…not to mention trapping biscuit crumbs and raising up the laptop for Zoom calls.
(Yes, me to).
Somewhere to keep your chocolate bar wrappers and use them as bookmarks…
