Image: Shutterstock/Mikhail_Kayl Image: Shutterstock/Mikhail_Kayl THE NATIONAL PUBLIC Health Emergency Team is meeting today to make its recommendation to Government about easing Level 5 restrictions.
The recommendation will potentially set out what people are able to do in the weeks leading up to Christmas, ahead of the Government’s decision this week on whether or not it will re-open things like pubs and restaurants across the country after 1 December. It’s been reported this week that some ministers believe restaurants should be allowed to open for indoor dining during December and that pubs should also be allowed to reopen.
However, some public health experts believe that it would not be safe to re-open restaurants next month, given the potential to the virus to spread in congregated indoor settings. But what do you think? Today we’re asking: Would you be comfortable going to a restaurant for a meal in December?Yes No I'm not sure/No opinion #Open journalism No news is bad news Support The Journal Your contributions will help us continue to deliver the stories that are important to you
Yes? Epidemic ended in May. Has a survival rate of 99.86% and 99.95% if you're under 70, same as flu so why wouldn't I be?
100% YES
its time a piece of logic entered the fray ,in place of fear, complying with social guide lines will reduce risk of virus.The virus can be contacted in many easier ways than Dining out
100% yes abd I’ll be booking at least 2 every week of Xmas ,
Yes
I’d be comfortable going out for a meal at any time. Open up the country and get the masks off the children in schools.
Yes. I actually thought the restaurants should have stayed open as they had made tremendous efforts to implement appropriate covid measures. So yes yes yes
Very
Don't need a poll for this. The Snowflake Curtain Twitchers can stay at home if they want. The rest of us want to live life, not in fear in this 99.9% Asymptomatic Casedemic. Rather die happy, than couped up in some random incompetent Lockdown.
Not sure worth the hassle.
I'd go today
Open up the country. 130million will be at high risk of hunger world wide, deaths of despair far exceed deaths from a virus that there is 99.97% recovery rate from, this is not about our health and safety. The government work for us, we the people, we say open up!
💯 be comfortable going into a pub aswell if only they could open, people are on top of one another in supermarkets yet you can't go into a pub ..
No
Still no mention on your site about the school in Cork that's to be closed down due to covid cases spiraling out of control in the school 🤔 doesn't suit your narrative I guess You really are a rancid bunch
It's time for a serious conversation around the legitimacy of using 'cases' as any sort of credible metric!!
I wonder if people who say no to this question shop in large supermarkets ? Whoever is still scared of the virus should stay at home if it makes them feel safer, The rest should be able to live their lives in a responsible manner
It depends on the company. If I'd have to sit with normie friends discussing how wonderful Tony Holohan and Leo are then I'd be VERY UNCOMFORTABLE
No
100%
Comfortable Mate I’m gonna get in and give the staff a dig out making the food I’ll clean the place up aswel. I’ll bring my own cutlery and condiments if needs be. So yes I will be comfortable thanks for reading, go back to work.
💯
Nope, not until we have the vaccine. I don't even know how people can afford to eat out on the lead-up to Christmas. Must be nice having plenty of money to go out and not a care in the world about others.
No
Wow... are people currently comfortable going into Lidl, Tesco or Supervalu, with others reaching in passed you to get their ‘essential’ chocolate biscuits. I’m sure we will only relish the prospect of proper controlled distance as we eat a meal and support local restaurants. 👍🏻
Cant go 4 a pint or a meal but i can go to a shop with a couple of hundred people in it + thousands before most likely touching the same products,makes sense alright 🙊🙊🙊🙊
Depends on the furniture
Not a problem
If you own a restaurant, would you be comfortable going out of business at Christmas?
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. And I can't wait to go out for a meal in December.
Dear Covidiots, Stay at home, if you are scared. Let others live their normal lives. Thanks, All sane people.
100% yes, epidemic was over in May
No
The govt really need to get their act together,the virus is eliminated from large parts of the country yet those lunatics in Nephet want everything to remain shut indefinitely.Go to a restaurant if you want to or remain locked in your home if you want to but its individual choice
Of course I would. The chances of me catching it are miniscule and then times that by the chances of dying from it make that number even far smaller.
Ha! No.
No, but that's just how I feel & science is based on data, not feelings.
No
