Meanwhile…
Had both Covid jabs but had heart inflammation after the 2nd one. Not just a tightness of the chest but thought I was having a full on heart attack ending up in hospital. Extremely fit & healthy then then broken overnight so you can poke that booster right up your arse.

This afternoon.
FIGHT!
From top: Croke Park; Stephen Donnelly
“What we had is agreement on a 50% capacity, so about 40,000 people be they vaccinated or unvaccinated. Sixty thousand people fully vaccinated in my view is probably a lower risk than 40,000 people.
“Remember 90% of the adult population is already vaccinated. So if you had an adult population in Croke Park regardless the vast, vast majority in there are fully vaccinated anyway.
“I was talking to Minister Jack Chambers about it and they spend a lot of time working with the sports organisations on whether or not the events themselves are causing outbreaks.
“Interestingly the events are very well run and there isn’t a lot of data suggesting there are super spreader events from the stadiums.
“When you talk to the local testing teams what they find is back in the counties [involved] they begin to see outbreaks because people are going to watch the match in pubs or in people’s houses.”

Irish Rail plan to route the Maynooth DART by Croke Park (see above and link below) but not stop there.
I am trying to get word out that if individuals simply put in a two liner email to DARTmaynooth@IrishRail.ie by this Thursday October 15, it could really help to get a DART station at Croke Park on track!
