Not an easy decision.
You should read that again. By linking to it, you are admitting that the whole âOmicron is mildâ cult is based upon, at best, wholly incomplete evidence.
It proves the exact opposite of what you presumably want it to âproveâ.
NPHET will surely ease restrictions and let us go to the cinema at 9pm
What would be a rough future date when we can decide if omicron is more mild in your opinion? Nphet certainly seen to think it is and theyâre not famous for their optimism
Is the covid thing still going on lads?
HSE are updating the website (by the end of next week) to allow a positive antigen test result to be recorded. Assume this data will be added to the daily PCR case numbers at some pointâŠ
Theyâll have to supply the antigens with QR codes on them otherwise you could have multiple people uploading the same antigen test in order to get the recovery certâŠ
Is that not wide open to abuse? A positive person could provide 10 positive antigen tests and hand them off to others?
Would remind you of the likes of @glasagusban and @Tank trying to say the unvaccinated are a threat to the health service when their lifestyle choices are the big threat.
I see Kimmich was back in action last night.
Doesnât really sound all that serious as some were making out now does it?
He missed 6 games in a 21 day period.
For 14 of those days he had to isolate at home.
Looks like the chaps who jumped all over this are beginning to look silly again and that the talk that Covid had caused serious damage were utterly bogus.
Canât imagine any footballer returning to top level action in 6 weeks if they had serious lung damage.
Depends on which antigens they accept I guess. You can get tests with/without a unique QR code on them.
Dont whatever you do put coke on a test. On tonic water. Or butter. Or run it under a hot tap for a bit.
More mild than something else does not mean mild.
This doesnât seem mild to me.
In short, we should abolish the word âmildâ from this discussion because it is used by the usual bad faith propagandists for political purposes.
Missing 6 games with something you said doesnât affect young people is a lot I would have thought
Numbers steady in icu going down a bit in hospitals. Definitely looking good at the moment
Stick a fork in it
Youâd imagine itâll rise a bit next week assuming the lads are right and we hit peak. Still though itâs very encouraging. Out and about with work during the week, people seem to be cautiously optimistic that we may finally be coming to at least the beginning of the end.
They could change the close contact rulesâŠâŠ.
I think weâll be able to make some definitive pronouncements by the evening of Monday 17 January (after the weekend hospital discharges take place earlier that day). The next 9 days are crucial.
