    Although probably not exactly a piss up. When they saw Temple bar prices was probably 8 Italians taking sips of a half pint instead of the standard 4 Italians to a half pint.

    Have you seen the prices in Milan? Temple Bar is like the canaries in comparison.

    There was an old man in Lidl earlier and he was coughing his face off. It sounded more like a “something went down the wrong way” cough than anything else, but his face was gone red and he got so bad he had to sit down on top of the waters to catch a breather. Usually I would ask if he’s alright but I just didn’t take the chance and I feel guilty about it since because everyone was avoiding him.

    That happens to me so many times. I rush meals and sometimes even drinking, and it goes down the wrong way producing a coughing fit. Happens a lot

    Ah Sh1t, I always associate his podcasts to my happy, chilled out few hours at night. Guess there’s no getting away from this now.

    How do they know the guy didn’t infect others as he walked past. The virus wasn’t waiting until they were seated. Or that the one in the middle 2m from wasn’t infected getting on too.


    Could be a draft we lose 500 skin cells per minute. End up in the air for a bit then settle down as dust.

    Sick of clueless people posting ****e like this. Should be instantly banned for posting such nonsense.

    for reference there are around 30,000 deaths per year in Ireland, so 3 times that from covid alone

    Based on what? Total horse****. Where the hell are they pulling 50-60% of the population infected out of?

    That is completely unprecedented anywhere even in the worst localised areas of infection.

    So he said he doesn't know but he's throwing numbers out there anyway that people then quote as fact. It's BS.



    Because they have no basis in reality.

    Just look at the two cruise ships and the infection rate on those. It spreads like wildfire without aggressive containment measures and isn't going to go away without a vaccine which may be over a year away.

    Doing these numbers in the euromillions, if I win I'm sitting this out in the Beacon hospital with my own ventilator.

    0.6% death rate in South Korea, 0.8% on that cruise ship where most were over 70, Italy figure based on their global figures that have only 1.4% of cases being under 19 which means they are missing loads and loads of v mild or asymptomatic cases in young people thus skewing figures. Date rate in a country forewarned will be less than 1% in all likelihood

    The South Korea figure isn't quite telling the full story. Of their 7,500 total cases, 7,200 are classified as still active so there's a fair bit to go in that before any definitive death rate can be extrapolated.

    We're not all jammed on a cruise ship full of infected staff and passengers though are we.

    We're in a sparsely populated, low density island with a tiny number of cases and we're taking early action to contain it.

    But hey let's use some hypothetical "worst case guesstimate scenario" BS numbers.

    Does anyone actually believe a word the chinese say? To go from hundreds and thousands of cases on some days to 0 is BS in my book and they are trying to look after their economy.

    Wuhan and other Chinese cities have been on lockdown since 23rd January. That's a couple of days short of 7 weeks. It's had the desired effect.

    We're not testing for community transmission here unless they end up in hospital and are picked up there. There are more infections out there than the confirmed number.

    I'm watching right now, it's truly scary. The guy is just so honest about the whole thing.
    The only approach is basically trying not to get infected

    There won't be 1% of that never mind 300%.

    139 cases after 28 days, and Microsoft was invented by Bill Gates so it must be true
