    Oh yes. I forgot some people think Covid doesn't cause death.

    It can if you have symptoms.

    Have NPHET been called out on their punctuality yet?

    Late every time.

    Probability going through the tests conducted all the way back to Feb 2020 looking for more positive cases to report.

    And the only important thing to be aware of would be the cancer. Undiagnosed cancer can result in death.

    Undiagnosed covid can result in deaths - to people you come into contact with.

    'Healthy' people get tested for genetic diseases in case their offspring might have an inherited disease.

    'Healthy' people get tested for STDs even without symptoms if they have engaged in risky behaviour or starting new relationship. They could be carrying something that doesnt manifest symptoms in them but could in a future partner.

    The delay was because RTE were testing groundbreaking new technology, where they start the broadcast before the CMO reads the numbers.

    Case numbers still high but with vaccinations completed of our vulnerable do they matter anymore?

    Really feels like we’ve lost the plot as a country when healthy people start queueing up at pop up test centres to see if they are sick...

    Bit of a stupid comment. It is in areas of high transmission. Catching more cases like this early will break chains of transmission further down the line. Surely it is not that hard to grasp or fathom at this stage of the game. Or maybe it is for some...

    In 2 months we are going to be in a different sphere.

    500-1000 daily cases will mean nothing like they used to come late May

    Ah I give up.

    If you’re perfectly healthy and want a test, go ahead.

    But unless you are planning on getting tested daily, you could easily pick it up at the test centre and never know...

    So their ground breaking technology is a load of crap then, what's new. :)

    We really need to adjust as a nation that 500 cases is a good level, not a desperate level and time to run for cover.

    Absolutely.
    Enough younger people not vaccinated to overwhelm health system.

    It is but 500 cases could easily be 1,000 in 2 weeks time if we let it get out of control... Importantly we have just 75 patients in ICU and does anybody have the hospital numbers? I'd be confident that they'll be down on yesterday

    There's no indication that young people will overwhelm hospitals.

    A lot of 80 year olds don’t even have appointments yet.
