    Can you explain what is happening in Northern Italy's ICUs please?

    This is an article published in The Lancet online (one of the top medical journals) yesterday. It comes from Italy medical professionals
    and gives a complete overview of their situation and what they know so far. It's sobering.

    I've posted this already but will again to try calm the inevitable hysteria:

    There should be a large jump in today's briefing but before people go crazy - it is due to an acceleration in getting test results back.
    It was taking nearly a day before but since yesterday they are getting results back in 4 hours.

    So today's new cases figure will essentially be for 2 days and not 1

    Just saw the citizenship ceremony on TV. I'm fuming. I thought we were supposed to be keeping our distance and avoiding contact. This the government doing this. FFS!

    You're not allowed say that. Did you not get the memo ffs. Racists and facists are everywhere. Citizenship ceremonies must go ahead virus or no virus !!!!

    It's very wrong as well, because just because people have been tested and confirmed negative, doesn't mean they won't later test positive.

    Dangerous misinformation leads to complacency and God knows we have enough of that. Just hope for the best but prepare for the worst, it's happening and we'll come out of it stronger if we're clever and careful.

    I think its important for our mental health to remain optimistic.
    We cant dismiss a positive article and twist them into misinformation.
    We are taking drastic measures as a nation.
    Reading on Spain and Italy unfortunately they have old populations.
    Lets hope the fact Ireland dont have the same population age progile stands to Ireland and prevents ICU beds becoming overwhelmed.

    In a months time, we'd be delighted with only 39. If people don't start heeding advice this will be to triple figures per day very fast.

    Give up the fags too

    Edit... just reading that was a while ago... stand down.

    It was two weeks ago, Rte should take it down as a revolving news story
