Maybe they should have tried to fix the health service.
Just read through the whole journal article announcing tonights cases and deaths and there is no details about the deaths bar that there were 4. Seems to be the same every night. Comes out eventually but not really highlighted. Goes into minute detail on the cases.
Im specifically asking you as youâre a reasonable alternative voice to most here. I donât want the usual âcod, journal is shiteâ type answers.
I canât think of any reason bar theyâre really old and this wonât frighten people enough but Iâm hoping itâs something else.
Met a chap yesterday who picked COVID19 up on holidays back in late March.
He looks fine ( middle aged maybe late 40âs & trim etc ) but says it was at least 10 weeks before he felt he was over it. Still says energy levels are poor compared to what they were but he is out & about doing his daily business.
Personally I donât believe at this stage the death rate is going to be excessive unless it runs through nursing homes.
The cases are still the worry as if we have say 900 daily confirmed cases you can imagine how many others have come in contact with the positive tests.
Sooner or later ( hopefully not ) hospitals could become overrun with this. Staff being infected then is a serious issue.
HSE & Government need to come up with a proper plan other than lockdown after lockdown because theyâre not going to wash with the public going forward indefinitely.

Are you asking me the reason? I donât know the reason.
I can give you an opinion
I donât read the journal.
If it is a numbers based article, there are two possible reasons to not disclose specifics
- At such low numbers, 4, the mean, median etc wouldnt be impacted significantly unless they were major outliers, so they wouldnât go in to it
- At such low numbers, would it be advisable to give such details in a public newspaper? If they gave ages and location at 4 deaths in the journal etc, it may be possible to trace if there was a death close by and you put 2+2 together and got 5 etc.
Thereâs two possible reasons in my humble opinion.
As I said. I donât read the journal so donât know their tone or how they reported on this previously
Didnât think it possible but Harris is becoming even more bloody annoying

Harris would want to cop the fuck on and throw his phone into the sea (providing itâs within 5km of where he lives)

Simon Harris is the Eoin McLove of Irish politics.
That day when there was about 10 cases just before the announcement to go to Level 5, I was annoyed that there were no details given, even in the Irish Times.
Just wait till they get inside the locker room Valerie

Hard to argue with that. What do you think about that thing I was on about with the deaths? If theyâre really doing it as it doesnât suit their narrative I think thatâs a mistake as not being fully up front isnât working any more
I donât think death rates in single figures with a median age of 80 is going to put the shits up anyone anymore.
A good deal of people see this for what it is, a method of sticking a plaster on a 12â wound when 25 stitches are required.
I canât see those being the reasons maybe they are though. They always give the ages of road deaths for eg
