Be interesting to see a graphic of how many people caught it in the hospital because I know there was an outbreak within the hospital recently.
There was a nasty stomach bug going around the creche lately which was brought home to us. Young one was sick enough for a couple of days and we all had a go but not too bad , but another lad in the creche ended up in UHL. Super infectious so they isolated him in the hospital by sitting him on a window sill away from everyone else.
I think he totally disagrees with you that covid can become a very serious problem and that vaccinations are crucial . Could the two of ye have a big argument about covid to give cheasty a break?
You really are getting your rocks off at all these people dying. A bit of time out in the fresh air and away from the internet would do you a power of good.
Myself and @Tierneevin1979 ? He seems to have a dispassionate, informed and objective take on the whole shebang. My only claim to fame is being consistently right about almost everything and saving countless lives by inventing ivermectin and promoting vitamin d. I suppose Iâm just a humble servant and willing conduit for those who seek truth etc.
Masks are probably of marginal benefit in a society mostly reopened and I donât really understand why people have kept banging on about them when at best they might delay infections by a couple of weeks.
The Government is not planning the reintroduction of Covid restrictions, but daily cases will hit 4,000 either today or tomorrow, the TĂĄnaiste says.
Leo Varadkar said that while there is concern over the ongoing rise in cases, that figure âdoes not mean what it meant last yearâ.
Mr Varadkar said that while he did not envisage restrictions being reintroduced, he could not rule it out.
âI canât rule it out and it will be reckless to do so. But I can say that itâs not our intention, and we donât expect to have to reimpose restrictions before Christmas,â he told RTĂâs Morning Ireland.
"The situation is fragile, but it is stable. We will see cases hit around 4,000 today or tomorrow. They are heading that way and thereâs a backlog of unreported cases, so we do expect to hit around 4,000 In the next couple of days.
"But three or 4,000 cases a day doesnât mean what it meant last year, last winter. The number in hospital last night was 46, ICU 90. Itâs been pretty stable for the past two weeks, which is reassuring.
âItâs telling us that the vaccine model is working, that infections in cases arenât turning into hospitalisations to the extent they might and thankfully arenât turning into high levels of deaths, although the deaths are happening and every death is a tragedy.â
