    Just heard on the news there over 22% of cases so far are community transmission. Roughly 20/25% each for travel related, local transmission, and under investigation

    So over 70 cases of unknown origin, means at least another 70 people with the virus that are unknown as well who gave it to them

    His presidency is definitely over. Even the dumbest fcuks (well not all of them) can see the conman behind the curtain.

    Having said that there's a core of people in theUS who haven't evolved much beyond the baboon and they'll stick with Trump even if he were to round them all up and send them to extermination camps.

    Fast forward to November "USA election postponed for at least 24 months due to concerns that it will increase infection. Trump to remain as president until an appropriate time is available for people to vote".

    Trump had a fight on his hands with Bernie. Biden is a home run, he's becoming more senile by the day. Bernie could go toe to toe with Trump

    The DNC would rather see Trump serve another 4 years than allow Bernie near the oval office. ****ing shame too.

    Think we need to send Bosco over to them - at least he/she self isolates and the speeches will be way more fun than the orange **** verbally sucking his own dick.

    Seems like a lot of the global elite are getting infected. Wonder if they know something we don't. None of them are dying either Perhaps it really is time to self contract.

    I think someone said the magic number to look out for with todays figure is 110 - which is about 30% of the existing overall number.

    But we all know the real untested number is significant. So 110 tested cases possibly means a couple hundred cases in reality.

    We may hit 15,000 confirmed cases by month end, but the reality could be much higher.

    15000 would be the highest per capita In the world ,

    People are thick and people think they know it all despite official advice to the contrary. Keep the likes of them far away from you and yours at this time

    Population has no influence on spread. Density yes, but per capita comparisons mean nothing.

    Oh I did believe me!..very odd walking route for dog bless him

    In Spain your allowed out to walk your dog all grand with me!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 15,505 ✭✭✭✭josip


    Our day-on-day case increase being reduced from 30% to 25% isn't exactly grounds for celebration.
    The Spanish have averaged just over 21% day-on-day case increases over the past 6 days and in that time total numbers have tripled.

    Our day on day increase %age has to come down every day or our ICUs will eventually be overrun.

    At the moment, it all depends how other countries go.

    I don't see it reaching 15,000, its the worst case scenario. Whatever the confirmed number, the real number is likely much higher.
