Coronavirus - Dig In, It's going to be a while yet

Problem is the nursing home clusters. The curve might flatten out but the death rate could go up for a good while yet.

11% of what?

The difference between Ireland and Denmark seems to be the number of recovered. Denmark has 1,193 listed as recovered and Ireland 5. I would say that 5 number is highly suspect and isn’t being updated.

Such comparisons are meaningless I’m afraid

Julio_Geordio · April 3, 2020, 5:20pm

I’d say they aren’t realising that number so they aren’t updating the tracker

anon7035031 · April 3, 2020, 5:21pm

Growth rate in new cases over yesterday. Seems to be fairly stable in Ireland around 11-15%.

What’s your thoughts on Russia and Africa?

anon60384913 · April 3, 2020, 5:21pm

I thought given we are both in lock down you could compare.

Julio_Geordio · April 3, 2020, 5:23pm

If you knew all the variables you could, but there are too many and we don’t know what we are looking for. So these imaginary timelines are pointless

Fulvio_From_Aughnacloy · April 3, 2020, 5:24pm

Forget about end dates and comparisons.

This is the long haul and you need to deal with it and adhere to the guidelines.

Can’t believe anything from Russia, cases in Africa seems very low, maybe they aren’t doing much testing.

Dziekanowski · April 3, 2020, 5:26pm

Can somebody please provide a reputable source/sources where up to date numbers of tests conducted per country is provided?

This information seems quite difficult to get a hold of.

anon60384913 · April 3, 2020, 5:27pm

You’ve no qualifications to say that fulvio. People are guessing. There has to be light at The end of the tunnel.

Copper_pipe · April 3, 2020, 5:28pm

We need to stay at home and after that we can’t do anymore.

Fulvio_From_Aughnacloy · April 3, 2020, 5:30pm

I’m not engaging in guesswork. It’s clear as day this is the long haul. Get used to it.

anon60384913 · April 3, 2020, 5:31pm

It’s a guess either way. I think things will be much better in 4-6 weeks. I hope all is well for your family back in Italy.

feck_it · April 3, 2020, 5:33pm

If it takes hold in Africa it could get very bad there.

carryharry · April 3, 2020, 5:35pm

Look at the deaths in Spain, Italy & France and see what the light on the way into the tunnel looks like.

You seem very concerned about getting up & going for a Fella part time working as a stable boy.
You seem very selfish here tbh, mad to get back out & about making a dollar.

anon7035031 · April 3, 2020, 5:36pm

Yes, and India. It’s baffling that India has fewer cases and deaths than Ireland. Must be all the quinine.
