I saw that statistic and it doesn't surprise me at all. People here tend to do what daddy government tells them. It wasn't always like that. When I was growing up, most people's principal occupation was ducking and diving. I was brought up to believe that everything the government says is a lie so I took no notice of covid and carried on as I always had. The only real difference it made to my life was that I could no longer hop on a bus to Dublin and meet up with friends. That said, most of my friends took the shot and many of them are now six feet under or heading that way.
