    The rich will be fine. They'll have the vaccination.

    A 46-year-old Colombian man tested positive upon returning to Brazil from a trip to Spain, Austria, Germany

    Surprised he didn't go to Italy just to make sure

    I estimate there are as many as 50 cases in Ireland currently, undiagnosed as of now.

    These people could have flown in up to 14 days ago

    And we have made no effort to contain the threat from Italian travel. A simple straight message from the start would have greatly helped... welcome but please keep to yourself for the next fortnight. Do not attend school, do not go to work, stay at home and report if you feel unwell. Even still the message is it’s grand & just carry on as you will.

    All the cases here to date seem to have been found and isolated, which is good news.

    Which curve will we follow later … the optimistic one or the pessimistic one ?

    That depends on how well we can keep the lid on the infections. Doing OK so far it seems.

    In the end... only time will tell.

    Seem and seems sounds about right. We have not hitten the iceberg yet.

    I'm guessing 8 cases on that flight

    Won’t take long to empty the hold if that’s correct

    For those who know, isn't Coronavirus a multi faceted thing, I think it includes the common cold. Still no vaccine for that one yet.

    But maybe this virus can be isolated and a vaccine produced. Ever the optimist.

    No vaccination for 12-18 months though.

    The rich are as vulnerable as the rest of us now, we all have no immunity to this bloody bug.

    There were lots of ski trips to Italy during midterm, the week of 17-21 Feb so a lot of those people may have caught the virus but are not showing symptoms yet. So we could see a huge increase in Ireland in the next week or so.

    Yeah you can see the lag that occurred in China between onset and reported.

    there's some talk emerging of fibrosis of the lungs being an issue in people who have recovered. read an article about a young boy in china who had it but was asymptomatic . when they scanned his lungs they found some scarring. survivors of the virus may have lung issues going forwards.

    This.

    Apparently it leaves a honeycomb type of scarring on the lungs. I've been reading about permanent lung damage. And if you get reinfected it would only compound this..grim.

    Common cold is mainly a rhinovirus bar a few exceptions

    For a start wouldn't it be great if the Dept of Ed contacted all schools and asked if they had a ski trip to Italy over half term? One box ticked and information known.

    I do realise that would not cover individuals, friends or families who were there to ski independently, but more information is better than less now.

    Just thinking out loud. Maybe the powers that be actually DO know at this stage I dunno.
    Ah come on, schools and individuals well know not to travel, DFA has a no non essential travel notice for northern Italy
