CoVid-19 Part VII - 169 cases ROI (2 deaths) 45 in NI (as of 15 March) Read OP

So half of the COVID19 patients in the Netherlands are under the age of 50. Two 16 years olds had to be put in a coma and incubated. Not just the flu, not just an old persons disease.

Don't be listening to these dopes on this thread saying go on about your normal lives.

Told my boss I won't be going back in if the pub stays open. At this point I have to think of my parents I'm back living with. He was understanding. Not sure how the owner takes it but if they have a problem they can something where the sun don't shine.

Read this as you telling your boss you would not be coming to work as the pubs seems a better option for you

I'd imagine the shutting up shop for more than 4 weeks would be the max the country could sustain. Someone said 16 weeks. There would be mass riots, breakdown in society, banks meltdown, social welfare system . Alot of small business won't be liquid come the 30th March if the restrictions are lifted anyway.
It would make the 2008 recession look like a bad day at the exchange.

The bigger picture will have to be looked at in a few weeks time.

Even with a two week shut down a lot of small business will go to the wall, after a month its anyone’s guess what state the country will be in...
Social welfare will be in heap for sure ..

I think you should contact whoever gave it to you and offer to return it.

Failing that your GP might help.

email is probably best because they are all very busy

Don't email. It'll get missed.

Bunch of nutters in the UK government think that's a great plan to infect 60 percent or more of the population and hope the people infected have an immunity afterwards. You experimenting with lives here. UK depostism policy will not work. Only a vaccine will help.

I thought someone here said it was the UK population who were poorly educated?

If you can’t get immunity from the body successfully fighting the virus and recovering a vaccine won’t work either! They require the same response from the immune system to work!

Can someone list names of underlying illnesses - I couldn't get very much info in Google.

positivenote · 15-03-2020 03:19PM

Should we, as a family of four showing no signs of symptoms continue to get out of the house for an hours walk everyday ? Yesterday it was the pheonix Park, today maybe a beach or st Catherine’s Park.
Of course we will maintain the social distance protocol whilst outside.
Just seeking clarification
Thanks

All non essential travel needs to be stopped. But the economic channels have to remain open. If we don’t have an economy we have so much more pain coming down the tracks

After reading about a 75 year old who has just died in Hungary RIP, I'd like to share something with any 20 year olds reading this, a friend of mines mother is 95 this year, she was 75 when you were born, think about that, to you 20 years is a lifetime....
My father passed at 80 but from the state of his chest this virus would have, without any doubt, taken him at 60, again a lifetime to you, and he did more in that 20 years than ANY of you have done in your 20.

It's my opinion. Time will tell. No we won't see the full impact of this in the next 2 years, the economic impact from this will be felt for more than a decade. Neither AIDS or Swineflu had European countries shutting borders and a dramatic reduction in international travel.

I also think the timing of this combined with the background and legacy economic issues from the 2008 crash are going to amplify the effects of this immensely.

Hopefully the overall death's are far below the figures you mentioned above but there is every possibility they will be multiples higher.

We'll probably have a vaccine for this within 18 months.

HIV/AIDS still doesn't even have a cure 40 years on even today. It even took 15 years for any sort of treatment to keep people living longer.

The economic effects will likely be less drastic than the 2008-09 crash, there will be a sharp dip with a likely quicker recovery from what we experienced with the slow never ending recovery from 2008-09.

I know how recency bias works given what I read in the sports forums, every current world cup is best ever (2018 is currently, 2014 was before that), every premier league season is the best ever, people were declaring the current Liverpool side the greatest football team ever only a few weeks back, better than Brazil 1970, Milan 88-95, Barcelona 09-12 etc. Every current sportstar is the best ever, every bond movie is the best ever, people were coming out of the cinema's saying The Force Awakens was better than Empire Strikes Back.

I accept this pandemic has more a drastic effect on sports, travel, globalisation etc than previous pandemics including AIDS.

Again for me it will be interesting to see how this pandemic fares over this summer, because next summer we'll likely be on the way out of this you would hope.

btw, it's game over in Dublin city center at least. The apartments are not made for people to stay inside all day, they are not homes but temporary holding places for landlords to profit from. People must go out daily or else it's like being in a box all day. But the streets are very narrow, compared to many other European cities, so there is no way to avoid creating crowds. Cases are going to spike dramatically very soon.

My friend in the UK said things feel very relaxed over there. Everybody going around like normal. Her sister-in-law has CYSTIC FIBROSIS and went on a trip this weekend, going to bars and restaurants. I cannot believe that.

The expression "Ignorance is bliss" comes to mind. People who don't keep themselves informed about what is going on are likely to carry on as normal.

It needs to be looked at now

All the government is doing financially for small business is offering loans

Who in their right mind would borrow a cent right now

Radical solutions must be found quickly or this economy will go down the toilet

Support business now or pay tens of thousands of dole payments in a few months time

Yes get out, you'd go crazy locked in all the time. Family of 4 here too and went out for a long walk this morning. We're not going near playgrounds though.

I was thinking of this but in relation to Trump and New York

This is starting to have a knock on affect at Dublin airport now. The delayed and cancelled flights to the USA are still at their stands and blocking any arrivals from using them.

This mornings Emirates flight has been sitting at the end of the runway for over 3 hours unable to offload passengers. This is just the start of it.

I see Aer Lingius are flying out empty to Spain now to bring the Irish home.

Are farts as dangerous as a cough or a sneeze in relation to spreading the virus? If so would a lit candle help at all....

SharpshooterTom · 15-03-2020 03:26PM

Watching CNN there seems to be some optimism. The situation in northern Italy has supposedly already been stabilised according to officials. A Spanish doctor who’s been observing the situation was optimistic that things may turn out better than predicted. Dr Tony Fauci said that he doesn’t believe that things will be as bad in the US as in Europe. So some opinions but I wonder if we’re veering more towards the best case scenario than the worst.

Lets hope this virus peaks in 10-14 weeks time and that will be the worst of it and things start becoming more manageable.

European central bank don't see it this way, trade will bounce back quickly, and grouth you can download a detailed pdf about it and there out look includes lock downs ,but tourism is going to be decimated even they admitted to that.
Economics will definitely be different as will how we trade in stocks.
High yield short term trading could be a thing of the past
