Cora has suspiciously good handwriting for an 8 year old.

I take it we are in the peak, this will be a rough week

Tony has said the model that the Irish Times article is based on is essentially a load of shit.

“All models are wrong, but some are useful”

Fuck no. Fingers crossed, pal

36 is a very bad figure, we’re over 50% of the British deaths per capita now.

Sorry to hear this Padjo

Fake news, no way that’s an 8 year olds handwriting, let alone someone from Tipp

It is an inevitable by product of the increase in cases and ICUs though sadly.

I think the zoo’s overrated anyway

First cousin of the Auld lads passed away in NY yesterday from it. 83 years young with underlying conditions. RIP.

RIP mate. Sympathies to you and your family.

Tank · April 7, 2020, 5:23pm

My condolences Mick

Paris to ban outdoor exercise tomorrow.
Should do wonders for their domestic violence numbers.

Think it might be daylight only. Their weather looks like it’s getting very nice so they must be concerned about flouting of the quarantine.

Lazarus · April 7, 2020, 5:39pm

@Tim_Riggins as the most informed poster throughout this crisis how do you read todays figures?

anon60384913 · April 7, 2020, 5:47pm

Paris has huge social issues. I wouldn’t like to live there at the moment.

carryharry · April 7, 2020, 5:48pm

2 more weeks, 2 more weeks…

caulifloweredneanderthal · April 7, 2020, 5:52pm

Until it peaks?

Tim_Riggins · April 7, 2020, 5:53pm

I would think they’re pretty inevitable given the number of infections we’ve had, the number of ICU admissions and the nursing home clusters. I had said a couple of weeks ago that I’d see us having under 1,000 deaths for this wave and ie be pretty hopeful of that still…
