Press conf. at 7(ish) I think.

NPHET meeting just ended now, briefing to health officials and then we'll have the outcomes.

Well I'm certain that your feelings are more important than the actual facts.

You mean to tell me that only 100 people throughout Ireland a day has had similar symptoms and warranted being tested .

If you accept 100 a day is sufficient testing. That's cool. It's your opinion.

So officially we have the containment phase, the delay phase and the mitigation phase. What comes after that?

Is there a link to watch Dept of health update/briefing? I think it’s happening around now.

if every single person in a country wore masks at all times wouldn't this have a dramatic impact on new cases. not protecting people - but massively reducing infected spreading??

If it became the law that we all had to wear gloves would it not help as well?

I really think so, but as we don’t have enough ...

what if everyone wore a handkerchief mask all day every day? disinfect them twice a day. that's gonna stop a hell of a lot of droplets.

it's cheap and every country in the world can do it.

I am on Dublin bus home. Sitting upstairs and a woman a good few rows back keeps coughing every 30-60 seconds.

Feck this.

That's shocking, 1000 is practically nothing is the overall scheme of things. Sh1t is gonna get worse very quickly here.

1,000 was the figure a few days ago. RTÉ news said it’s more like 1,700 at this stage.

is_that_so · 10-03-2020 07:20PM

10 more and 1784 tests.

10 new cases of Covid-19 have been confirmed by the Department of Health, bringing the total in the Republic of Ireland to 34.

With 16 cases also in Northern Ireland, there are now 50 cases on the island of Ireland.

Over 1,700 tests have been conducted.

Taken from RTE.

Completely ineffective. Thread count too low and loose to be a barrier to this virus.

They've carried out 1000 only.

Those kind of figures does not inspire me. I reckon there are quite of lot of people with CV19 that hasnt been tested .

I'm terribly sorry our capacity to test the nation doesn't impress you, my Lord.

Medical Scientists working extra hours and increasing their service with no extra staff isn't good enough for you.

Maybe you can offer your services.

bekker · 10-03-2020 07:23PM

10 new cases!!!!

and still the North, South, East, West crap.
