So if someone thinks they have symptons of the virus what is the present procedure advised?

Call your doctor, else HSE/HSELive online else 112/999 as a last measure - but the doc is the first port of call

Singapore is a truly exceptional case, they have digitized data on virtually everything.

Contact your GP by phone to notify them and self isolate immediately.

Don't go to A & E......await instructions from your GP,

CDC and WHO need to be re-evaluated in terms of their supposed authoritative competence. They are almost a a liability.

CDC officials have said while it's clear asymptomatic spread does happen, it doesn’t appear to be the driver of the outbreak. CDC website says asymptomatic transmission "is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads."

But Dr. Ciesek asks: “Why are they so sure of this?"

There was also 75000 in Old Trafford and 60000 in Anfield this week, no complaints over that

There were a lot more Irish in Cheltenham over a 4 day festival than at Anfield or Old Trafford.

Football cancelled games from Thursday. But British horseracing wouldn't cancel it's Thursday and Friday races.

Cheltenham went ahead because of money and a privileged clique. It will be difficult to close pubs, though it will be done, as they are a powerful lobby.

Much easier to close schools.

Even viruses want nothing to do with him.

Doesn't matter, I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

If he has it that's it, but if he's hiding it he is infecting others. Expect a quarantine in the White House soon "as a precaution", and Pence will take the reins, and suffer the fallout too. Why he doesn't just resign now (Pence I mean), is beyond me.

And as for the nodding donkeys behind Trump at pressers, Scarleh for ya.

Those clips this evening ruined it for the pubs.

Call you local GP or Southdoc or has the HSE and/or Dept of Health an emergency 24 hour free phone contact?

Who knows. He took the test at the same time his doctor tweeted he didn't need one which seems odd. Anyway it isn't something I would wish on anyone. The US is likely in a lot of trouble though.

Was this the same doctor who says he tested negative? I am pretty sure he has moved on from doctor that allowed him to write his own medical report at least.

Temple Bar right now. Shut the bloody pubs.

WHO can only be as good as the data provided to them by individual countries. They have been warning of asymptomatic spread for some time, quoting about 10% if I recollect correctly.

Their budget has been reduced in recent years.

But haven't there been cases in Meath that have been described as 'East'? I haven't heard 'North East' used in this context yet.

Still, you don't see anyone fleeing the oppression of Singers, looking for asylum.

It won't be that ordered. There'll be gardai outside each supermarket and everyone will stand a safe distance apart in a queue in the car park until they're ushered in.

what a naive thinking, gardai cant handle underage kids let alone adults, and what about people that work in supermakets, some staff getting hysteric and dont want to work, theres tons of factories bakeries etc that have 100s people that are needed and most work in close quarters, if you think half is needed and law will sort it out your delirious, few stated here they are at risk i get that and imagine they do take precautions, elderly would be second priority but rest will ride it out, UK will be good example to have not skewed statisctics on this - as causing disruption and hysteria on something that cant be seen nor tested properly, 3-4 or 10 months wont make it go away.

instead of focusing on stupid pubs and restaurants gov should empty their pockets equipment doesnt cost much neither double pay for workers, some say no space yet we have plenty of offices arenas that could be turned into proper quaratine zones for those critical, as fending of for few weeks and ten rinsing and repeating sounds insane then odd person getting infected at this stage.

So by that logic, we can expect 1,500 imported cases from Cheltenham.

Marvellous.

We have a family dinner planned for Monday. 8 people. Two of them over 60.

Would you go?

Of course not.

Maybe remind the older would-be attendees that when we run short of ventilators the first group likely to be excluded from access to them is the over 60s.

The Anfield match was worse than Cheltenham. At least Cheltenham has some chance for separation of attendees, the away fans at Anfield came from Madrid and crammed into stands side by side.

If it doesn't work do an image search for Cheltenham and see how incorrect your above statement is regarding separation

This post is doing the rounds in Cork. I don't know is it national or local or true!

Red Cross has advised that there are some people who’re going to old people houses saying they belong to Red Cross offering to do the test for the virus and or they charge them for the test or they just Rob them. Red Cross is not doing any test at home. Pls try To share this msg so that we can stop such a desplicable people!!! Time to Slap these ppl. Look out for your Elderly Neighbours
