Yep agree with that. Their media have got behind them as they needed a vaccine win after their terrible covid numbers and brexit disasters. They’ve put on the red white and blue jersey so to speak. Truth is we are doing an average job. Not as good as the best Israel, and slightly unlucky to be next door to the second best, the UK. We could do better but it’s the usual Irish “could do better” job.
Most of my English mates are in their 30's and 40's. They are all getting their first shots. Keep seeing it up on Facebook, the dirty fookers are planning their holidays and I reckon I am about a year away from getting my first shot.
In Holland? Bizarre that J&J don’t have a staff scheme. Anyone, you’re at negligible risk at your age you don’t really need it.

True but without the commission we’d be even worse off. Truth is we’re doing okay. Not amazing but okay. When you look at it in totality we’ve had a low number of (very high median age) deaths and we’re vaccinating the high risks at a mediocre rate. The only real mistake we made was over reliance on lockdowns and a lot of businesses will not recover.

Back in the UK. Mainly contractors I worked with in NL or Tel Aviv. The company told us there is no chance of preferential treatment.

McPhillips is an exceptional talent. I would have reservations about his coach. He has a reputation for burning out athletes at a young age. Hopefully he has learnt lessons over the years because he has a potential star in the making.Duff Paddy wrote: ↑Mon Mar 08, 2021 9:19 amDid very well to make a final fair play to him.

yup, if 5% of the population account for 95% of the deaths then get them vaccinated and the rest of us can take our chances ; having said that the way the HSE operates they probably haveDuff Paddy wrote: ↑Fri Mar 05, 2021 10:00 pmI disagree.

It's the first gamble on Covid that Boris has taken that has worked out though. He's already thrown the dice on sports fixtures, (remember Cheltenham) lockdowns etc. etc. and lost. It's why the UK has had 140 k deaths, at a rate 2.3 times that of Ireland.ticketlessinseattle wrote: ↑Mon Mar 08, 2021 1:10 pmin the end UK has 42% + of its population with at least one vaccine shot, EU Ireland, maybe 10% ?camroc1 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 05, 2021 8:00 pmVery much this.nardol wrote: ↑Fri Mar 05, 2021 7:58 pm EMA should make AZ jump through every single and then some for the rest of time.

He has already sued and won. You got to remember that in 2014 there was a very niche market for these bonds but a market nonetheless. Kearney possibly believed that he needed expert help to off-load them.

Central Bank proceedings would be parallel to DPP proceedings against the individuals. CB can go after people summarily - District Court only - for breaches of the CB Acts but nothing else.
Whether there's a Garda investigation is another matter. I said on here recently that we massively underfunded investment in white collar crime because trained professionals were too expensive. NAMA had more forensic accountants than the rest of the enforcement bodies had ever had ever, afaik. The ODCE has one, if memory serves.
