This one seems to be the best. But I would say any figures outside of the official announcements can be ignored as rumours.

But in all honesty, we have to have at least 1000 cases in the country by now.

I have that one, but it;s still at 70

Did I read here we are at 99?

We need to close our borders to the UK.

Why?

It's already on the loose in Ireland and it's only on the loose to the same extent in the UK. Other than generally preventing people travelling around closing down links to the UK won't achieve much other than piss people off.

The 70 being reported nationwide is not accurate anyway. There are 70 in Clare alone I would say.

Greek health authorities have announced further preventative measures to curb the spread of coronavirus, saying all bars, restaurants, take-aways and beauty parlours have been ordered closed as the number of confirmed cases in the country rose to 190.

You need to relax and instead of being worried about what might happen to them focus your thinking on how you may be able to help when it come.
People lived through epidemics, famine, wars and life while hard will go on.

anyone feel like US is purposely messing up the testing thing to keep numbers artificially low?

if they had a comprehensive testing regime they would easily have the highest infection rate outside china.

No need to seek an explanation in malice when plain incompetence would suffice.
