Coronavirus thread - 19/10/2020 - The Day Ireland Died

Not necessarily, keep hospital admissions down hopefully.

Winter and 5km. Not good. Not good at all.

Meant to say it isn’t, in relation to dealing with infectious diseases.

It’s definitely trending upwards, though I think the average in Dublin is pretty stable.

Jesus . What a knob

Fair enough.

What do you mean by the average is stable?

I’d say the 7 day average in Dublin isn’t much higher than it was last week.

(That’s just from eyeballing the figures, I’ve not got the calculator out)

The virus is laughing at us lads.

Don’t panic lads we’ll have to do at least in Week 4 first so the Govt can save face, should be plenty of time to stock up on beer then

Kids teams can train. Non contact but losing that under level 5 is a real loss to them.

Not much point comparing case numbers from April considering we’re doing 3 times the testing.

I haven’t seen a source for those type of figures for Dublin. Today would have bumped up this 7 day average

First, what’s the rate of false positives does anyone know? I overheard someone yabbering today that said the testing is not up to standard and half the positives are actually negatives. Is this anyway correct?

Also, what’s the PUP now? If they go level 5 the Mrs is closed again, tho she might as well be closed now with numbers and the recent political spat with gov/nphet… People are locking themselves away.

This virus has developed an intense sense of humor

Donal Og will have more of a chance of seeing blue balls than yellow ones this Winter.

But. But. But.

The rate per 100,000 must be off the chain in Cork. Wonder when Mickey Martin will work up the gumption to lock them down.

It’s gonna be a Cunt when you need to home school him and his siblings.

Basketball cancelled today due to Level 3 :slightly_frowning_face:
