Tbf, I think Peej was trying to over-compensate for his initial covid denier phase which in turn was just him lashing out when his holiday to Lanza was threatened (the infamous "I'll do whatever it takes for next few weeks but I'm getting on that plane in July" rant).
The zero covid "ideal" was quietly shelved by Peej and indeed other commentators when it became clear it was a pipedream.
Tbf to Peej, after initial "more chance of being run over by a bus" phase and zero covid aside he managed reporting on the pandemic reasonably well.
In retrospect, Ireland's handling of the pandemic was generally very good as acknowledged by OECD report last month - I'm sure Peej will soon have a segment discussing this and admitting that in hindsight maybe "zero covid" wasn't the magic bullet he and others thought it was!"
All for another day - today is all about France Ireland in Coogan Towers. Peej will be marching down to Barrys in Douglas or South County about 6pm to ensure he gets prime spot by the TV!!
