    Is anyone actually worried about this stuff. Unless you're elderly and/or have a weakened immune system, you'll be grand.


    Stop talking sense, we love a crisis in this country :D

    You’ll never guess where I am.

    There’s around twelve people here in different states.

    And We’re nit allowed use phones im having a sneaky smoke in a porch

    It’ll break eventually and I hate feeding the hysterics and doom mongers here but this is more ****ed than you’d believe and yes it’s being suppressed in the media and got threatened repeatedly to stay offline and say nothing.
    This is ****ed up strap yourselves in lads

    I don't believe that if they suspected you had the Corona virus. They'd allow you to disobey H+S laws by smoking in a porch.

    Everyone will know it by the 9 o'clock news. If they name the school you could have head the balls down trying to burn it to the ground over night.

    That kid went to school last week. There will be more cases, possibly. It could well be that the virus does not have the same tenacity and aggression as it has in China. It also may be a mutation etc. We don't know yet.

    The last thing the HSE needs is people assuming Glasnevin is ground zero or anything like it.
    Initially I was like don't be silly.....then again I read Iran burned down a bloody hospital due to coronavirus!

    The name should be released when at a sensible timeframe when parents etc have been contacted and the people involved given clear instructions with regards what to do, support etc

    Hope the poster gets well soon.

    Just to confirm the poster is being tested for COVID 19, has been tested?

    Actually quite unique insight potentially if true. Would the patient be allowed take pics or have cigs?

    Whatever though hopefully swift recovery.

    Whatever about cigarettes what right would the hospital have to telling someone not to use their phone?

    That's not cool. If he put it in a private message. He prob didn't want identifiable pictures posted on boards.

    In bed hooked up to a drip, finger pulse oximeter, oxygen via nasal prongs, no obvious nicotine staining on fingers.

    and nipped out for a cigarette !

    It’s in Glasnevin I believe.

    Or maybe you have loved ones who are in those 2 broad categories and don’t want to infect them.

    You've obviously not been to the Celtic Whiskey Store / Wine in the Green in Dawson street have you? Spanish absinthe available there at 70 and 85%.

    I wouldn't go near Spanish absinthe, my one brush with it finished with me getting sick in a bath...............while I was sitting in it waist deep in water.

    I'd rather find out at the earliest opportunity. If I hadn't bothered reading emails from the school a public announcement would solve that.

    The priority has to be the greater good...…….not the hurty feelings of whingers

    Without the school being named, (responsible) parents who haven't been contacted will monitor and assess their kids conditions and escalate if any are showing illness without being panicked by location.

    With the school named, anyone who's been near the school will be turning up at hospital as any single sneeze or cough will be assumed to be the virus.

    Its not rocket science why they don't want to release the name.

    I have to say I know the HSE is a farce and that but the way they've handled this only 2 days into our outbreak is bleak and doesn't bode well going forward. "low risk" ffs.

    Agreed. Their backs are already to the wall and they are doing their very best to allay fears. It might not be the correct strategy however. Alot of us can see right through it and we would instead appreciate some transparency. Feels like they are treating us like children.

    Yup that makes no sense at all

    Probably posted already but 40 minutes ago is a huge number of pages on this. The positive diagnosis was on a Dublin teenager who returned from a school trip skiing in Italy.

    I've come.to the same conclusion myself. Also, the only 12 bed wards I've seen in the many hospitals I've worked in are the ICU and those aren't ICU beds.
