We are now seeing lots of whooping cough in Ireland too. Small babies can and do die from it. The vaccine is safe and effective. It’s important to keep small babies safe. That should be all we need to say.

Helped a lady with a buggy around this today. Rang St James's Hospital to complain, to be told ‘we’re allowed to park there, we own the building’ and then hung up upon.
I think you’ll find that regardless of property ownership nothing gives you the right to block the pavement.

Covid is bad.

Vaccines against it are fantastic. We see so many outbreaks still happening in high risk settings, and vaccines have been the game changer.

Long covid is real, and it’s awful.

BUT these data below represent some fair old cherry picking of the science.

Presented at #PAS2024 :

Never fails to amaze me the amount of grown-ass adults on here stewing in their racist hate for successful Irish athletes

Wee Littler was the butt of joke on Have I Got News For You on BBC1 on Friday night 🤣

LOL at the idea that any of these guys care about the children and vulnerable people of Ireland. Not a peep out of them about drug dealers or the white Irish crime gangs. They just don’t like foreigners.

I never knew this. Spain doesn’t have recognised ID physicians! Absolutely wild!

Oh FFS and so it begins! I thought neurosurgery would be immune from this 💩!

Arguably the brightest and most competitive of medics compared to a 2 year degree wielding PA!

Sit the FRCS and then il accept ‘similar diagnostic and therapeutic reasoning’

Beaumont Hospital

I haven’t been house-hunting in a long time, so can someone please explain to me why this toilet seems to have a viewing gallery? 😂
