Here Endeth the ?Superflu? Sun Jan 04, 2026 19:00 | Dr Carl Heneghan and Dr Tom Jefferson
The "superflu" fizzled out like every winter bug does, but the media and NHS had everyone panicking anyway, say Carl Heneghan and Tom Jefferson. We need less drama and more data; we've all seen winters before.

Call out for support from Teresa Treacy - http://vimeo.com/29651960
Photos from Wednesday including the 150 year old ash that was cut.
Sorry must have been out when you called.
Come back for tea another time.
Have been following this story since the start and must admit being helpless if not for what I can do through the social network. Today in Ireland to see a woman in jail for protecting the future of our earth for our grand children what should we be asking? So many people doing what they can to support Teresa but how many does it need to really make a difference. I have been trying to use the least amount of electricity I can I only wish I could do without it completely. Thank you to all.
Even my dear old mother is coming along to this. Its not looking good for ESB, not at all.
I would have no problem in moving to another energy provider, but we do not have any ethical/morally minded energy providers, unless you are self sufficient. Our political masters support them all giving them grants etc. We have a lot of Airtricity wind turbines beside us & the only way we could stop ESB pylons(one cannot work without the other) coming down across our field in a diagonal line to avoid the hedges etc was to put in planning permission for a house which cost us approx E5k & they crossed a neighbours field instead, ok that sounds like not in my back yard, but neighbours did not have a house in the same field & we could not find anyway to discuss this with either Airtricity or ESB or the Co Council & my planning objection was late by one day, we were told we had 1 month but as the month had 31 days & 1 was a day late with my submission, then I was told that my submission could be attached to a valid submission which was ok with me but the 'valid objector' was bought off with a turbine of his own for which he is paid EXXk pa. I am sure there was another way that the ESB could go, openness & transparency is needed for all these planning applications down to the fine details.
Start a phone ringing (or emailing / letter writing) campaign if you cannot travel up to Dublin to protest or if you cannot go down to Offally to protect Teresa's land and trees. I rang the RTE News office the main switchboard is: 01 20831111 ask to be put through to the News Desk then ask to speak to Ray Burke he is the main editor.. you may get a young man called Rob on the line either.. I rang earlier and he had no news to hand about Teresa Treacy but the famous 'will get back to you' was quoted.. So far none of them at RTE english language service have got back to me.
I also rang Liveline Direct (the Joe Duffy Show) 01 2082984 the young woman there is called Emma and she informed me that if Joe considered the Teresa Treacy case newsworthy he would get back to me - and she pointedly asked me was I a friend of Teresa's. I answered no but do you not want people to take an interest in your news items even if they dont know the people involved? like the Carmelite nun who's statue was stolen? she could not answer that question.. she knew who I was as I have been emailing and ringing previously.. but she did not 'get back' to me either. Ring Ring Ring.. if you cant actually go out there and protest in person its only the cost of a phonecall and if their switchboards get jammed they just 'might' take notice. Also I informed Emma at RTE that I was a TV Licence payer and as such indirectly paying her wages. They also lock up people who dont pay their TV Licences in Mountjoy.
The link below was all I could find as ''latest'' news on RTE .. they are a bit out of date.. National Broadcasting Service that they are.
