The big question?.
Is Spain the problem or is it the idiot's which go there and don't give a crap about anyone else.all you do us have a look at a football terrace for the answer.
How many positive cases waltzed out of Croke Park last weekend.

Being here at the moment I can say the Spanish are strict on the rules, masks must be worn and distancing is still taking place with proof of vaccination required.

We are in a non tourist area so can’t say what the likes of Salou or Benidorm are like for non compliance or crowds but the flight on Monday from Belfast to Barcelona only had about 30 people on board

A few weeks ago we were in Calpe which is a bit touristy. After about 11 a.m. there were police tapes across all entrances to the beach and if people were leaving the security people allowed more on to replace them but directed where they could go. As said above, the Spanish are taking this very seriously. By law you don't have to wear masks outside now unless you are going to be within 1.5 meters of someone, but nearly everywhere we have been people are still wearing masks. We feel so safe here.

My take on all this Covid related matters is this….. at the moment approximately 90% if all Southern Ireland people are vaccinated.
Now…. Either the vaccine works, or it doesn’t. We have been told that it is very effective and works extremely well. So.. we either start living again, or we don’t.
I choose to live.

No-one wearing masks in shops in Holland feels a bit weird when we have been used to it for so long.

If two vaccines isn’t stopping it , you haven’t much hope with a mask

Two different things,
Vaccins won't stop you from getting it, but will help to prevent it from killing you.
Masks and Hygiene have been doing the same thing for nearly two years now.
Both together, give the better option.

Jason, look at it like this, how long has the flue been around, we of an age or infirmed get a Flue jab before winter to keep it from killing us. And we are glad to live with it, This new vaccine will be just added to the mix.🤔
The difference, probably everyone is going to have to get a winter jab such is life today ☹
