    No there shouldn't but we'll probably see a backlog again in the next week.

    If anything just on rough numbers because I've not gone through them yet, I think and open to correction here we're a bit over on cases v swabs now.

    Hopefully tomorrow sees it level back to being quite close in swabs v cases

    I went outside yesterday and it looks like in Dublin NOBODY is wearing masks outside of supermarkets. I was the only person on the street wearing a mask.

    Genuine question.... why would you wear a mask outside?

    So that you're not spreading the virus to people you pass on the crowded sidewalk.

    Incidence rate at 248 per 100k so a decent drop on last week. Going in the right direction.

    Hopefully over the course of the week the effects of the most recent measures should start to show

    Very very unlikely to happen here in Ireland... as we do not have "sidewalks"

    Someone better than me might know that, but it looks like 400 cases across the 2 days, so average in line with what we have seen.

    They had a guy from Pfizer on CNBC. It takes a month for the vaccine to start working and you have to go twice. It's basically not a practical thing like the seasonal flu shot. It's not likely this is going to go into mass production.

    Not slang, it's a lexical item from the dominant standard English variant here. As someone who speaks 4 languages surely you'd know that!

    Paul Cullen was asking about Tony's thoughts about the peak of excess mortality from this year, April, being roughly identical to the peak of excess mortality of previous years, which tended to happen in January - the implication in the question being that because we didn't see the "traditional" peak in January of this year we had a far larger cohort in the population who were vulnerable to the disease who would have, to put it bluntly, have already died in a usual January.

    It's grist to the mill to the "sure these people were going to die anyway" argument. Tony saw where we was going and claimed to have not seen the report - didn't want to get drawn into it.

    I was taught American English in school. You guys speak some variant of British English.
