Irish govt to be fair have tried both options 1 and 2.
Ah I don’t think it would be that high but it would be bad yeah.
The alternative is stay in maybe Phase 2 forever.
These figures have since been rubbished and that headcase Ferguson is a figure of ridicule.

As you said, this is where we are.
When do we expect work to begin on the wall around the midlands lads?
Working remotely as they say
It simply cannot take off again like February - March unless people went back to the same behavior they had then, no social distancing and no awareness of the threat. What you are seeing now is clusters where social distancing is being ignored for a variety of reasons. There will always be idiots but by and large people are now aware of how this spreads and how to avoid infection. In terms of ICU and deaths the key there is to focus on protecting those that are likely to end up in ICU or dead if they get it.
A trench would be more apt.
cclose the fucking airports,

2 week lockdown for the BUFFALOS and the Flour bags according to the paper of record
The State’s public health team has recommended new regional restrictions in Kildare, Laois and Offaly for two weeks following a large increase in Covid-19 19 cases in the counties.
Cafes restaurants and pubs will close as well as cinemas theatres and museums. There will be no sporting events or matches. Gyms will also have to close.
Senior sources has confirmed to the Irish Times that the National Public Health Emergency Team (NPHET) have recommended that from midnight tonight people in those areas will only be allowed travel within their own county unless it is for work or medical appointments, or for family reasons. There will also be an exemption for those who need to travel for farming reasons. Indoor gatherings will be restricted to six people.
put a fork in Ireland, its done
How will this effect Sunday’s Group 1 Action at The Curragh?
Doesn’t COVID only have to be present at time of death for it to be recorded as a COVID death?
No mention of a nationwide shut down of meat factories yet?
Gone
All sporting events have been banned but, non-contact outdoor sports and training may continue subject to maximum of 15 people. Training for professional athletes involved in contact sport can continue.
Genuine answer, I don’t know. I certainly wouldn’t put it past certain people in our government to do it, gently massage the figures. There seems to be an acceptance that you can tell a white lie or two in relation to this illness. Neil Ferguson is an extreme example but if even include the original mask advice. “We need them so tell people not to wear them cos they won’t help”. Now we have to wear them everywhere.
However, given that the HSE is involved, it will always be impossible to rule out barely believable levels of incompetence as the reasons for the inconsistency in the figures.
I don’t buy that there’s anybody messing with figures in any way, what’s being reported is what they have,
Too many people in various Govt departments and levels of HSE would need to be complicit, It’s a handy line to run out about the bank holidays and all that but it ain’t happening IMO
