I am all for recommending social distancing (and stronger quarantine measures for those confirmed to still be infectious) however this kind of petty authoritarianism is both insanely stupid and darkly foreboding:
Hopefully many of these fines end up being successfully challenged in court but what an enormous waste of time and resources due to poor judgement by over-zealous police officers.

Models show that if China had been honest about the outbreak iand imposed quarantine three weeks earlier there have been an approximately 95% reduction in cases.

America is on course to be the worst affected of all countries. And you’re going on about China. I think you need to readjust your gaze.
Steal all the fuckin PPE you want. It’s not going to stop it burning a massive hole in the population.

And yes the commander clown in chiefs fault. Directly.

Good luck with that.

Remember, dime personally brought it home from his ill-advised trip to Singapore. He’s directly responsible for bringing it to Ireland.
