I mean you do the big Irish thing in your avatar and you don't know the name of the current Taoiseach (ok to be fair he's current only in the role till a new coalition govt is formed)

You're making as much sense as the numpties who go to watch Celtic and start chanting 'up the RA'.

I cited from a newspaper that quoted the official death rates for the Republic of Ireland, I am not Irish and oddly I don't think you have to be Irish to do that. Unlike you, I seem to know the name of the current Taoiseach which is probably why you missed the relevance of indicating the data comes from Varadkur.

A day after the Justice Department intervened on behalf of a local church in a lawsuit over a ban on drive-in services in Greenville, Miss., due to city COVID-19 social distancing restrictions, the mayor now says such religious gatherings are allowed.

“Today, given the definitive guidance from the governor, in the city of Greenville we will allow drive-in and parking lot services in the city – so long as families stay in their cars with windows up,” Greenville Mayor Errick Simmons said in a press conference Wednesday streamed over Facebook Live.

He said that during a call with mayors from around the state, Gov. Tate Reeves had told the local leaders that drive-in services “are safe” when congregants follow social distancing guidelines and remain in their separate cars with their windows up.

"The City of Greenville fined congregants $500 per person for attending these parking lot services – while permitting citizens to attend nearby drive-in restaurants, even with their windows open,” Attorney General Bill Barr said Tuesday, echoing concerns of critics of the ban who said it singled out religious institutions unfairly.

I don't know the names of 90% or more of the national leaders on the planet. What's your point?

Crazy stuff. Who wrote this lunacy? A krokodil addict, no doubt.

And that's a good example on how conspiracy theories cannot grasp the most basic, elemental real world facts [:D]

In november 2013, the Chinese relaxed the one-child policy. Why? because the population pyramid is starting to look like the west's pyramid aka ageing populations. In other words, just like in the west, they need more babies now [;)]

Never let the truth get in the way of a good story. Throw in some aliens though. Now if you're talking about a sordid plan like here and here [:D]

... and yet... eugenics are truly a quintessential anglo-saxon thing, my friend. Looks like we are dealing with psychological projection here eh hehe

Zovs, the only truth I know is they ruthlessly fought (and defeated, hopefully) Covid-19, saving their own people in the process. Not too bad. End of story.

my point is I cited official figures from the Republic of Ireland (& that apply purely in the Republic). Now since they have a substantial degree of wider testing and contact tracing they probably are more accurate than those reported by many states - in effect they are capturing a lot more of the 'ill but not hospitalised' than say England.

You bang on about this is wrong on a global scale.

I agree, its the data from one small country and I mentioned that Varadkur is both the leader and a practising doctor. My mistake was to assume that someone who does a big thing about being 'Irish' in their avatar would know something about the place.

I hadn't realised your connection was some fantasy from the mid-seventeenth century. Makes me worry you are similar to some rather odd Americans who used to turn up where I worked in Caithness a few years back. Part of that was a serious academic centre researching the clearances and they would want evidence that granny had been evicted from the ancestral croft by English soldiers at bayonet point or had been at Culloden etc. Usually it turned out, they had no links, perhaps one ancestor had moved to the Americas from Lowland Scotland.

So as with Statler, apologies I made the mistake of assuming you knew what you were talking about ...[;)]
