As I understand it, this is related to flights to/from the UK (where travel in November is supposed to only be allowed for essential purposes).
O'Leary's point was that Ryanair are still operating a small number of flights, so if your travel isn't essential, you can rebook for a later date rather than get a refund for a flight that is still being operated.
