    Getting a bit of a hammering about wait times for a test and wait times for results

    Vietnam have run tests and apparently, spraying a mask with disinfectant and microwaving it for a minute means they can be reused more. Sounds like something you'd read in the Onion but they say it totally sterilises the mask.. A homemade autoclave I guess.


    Don't try it with an N95 mask with a metal nose clip :)

    I like the idea that if Irish people abroad want to come home this late in the day that they have to be quarantined, tested and cleared at their own expense.
    You might like that....but it isn't gonna happen

    I wouldn't be overly alarmed.....if the number was, say, 160 tomorrow evening, we would be right back on track with the good weekend trend.

    There was no good weekend trend
    Just a lag in batches announced

    Dr Holohan said 215. He also said 1,012 in total. Yesterday's reported figure was 785. The figure in the thread title now reads 1,121 (changed to that by another mod). I am not sure where we are up to, but I guess recoveries may be affecting things

    https://www.gov.ie/en/news/7e0924-latest-updates-on-covid-19-coronavirus/#march-23

    Official figures say 219 today, total 1,125

    Most of the country closed down already.. whiles it’s mostly closed, close everything else for afew weeks.. no one allowed into country for foreseeable future without self isolation for two weeks.. Ireland will be clear of virus quicker than if they stay going as they are and a lot less deaths

    If you think stay going as we are and ignoring Italy’s warnings work... then look at Uk. Spain France Italy and America ... all fukt

    You only know they were tested
    Its incorrect to state they were tested outside the normal protocol or ahead of anyone before them

    A 20% death rate in an intensive care ward is likely to be relatively normal I'd have thought.

    Yup, but I think that's no different to any admission to ICU.


    I get that, but only a few months ago I would have thought I wouldn't end up in an ICU ward with asthma/COPD for at least another 25-30yrs.

    We have a really odd relationship with fast food in this country.

    People panic buying McDonald's as its closing temporarily. I've seen it all.

    Netherlands just announced new measurs

    1) No more group gatherings until June 1
    2) Local mayors can decide local rules.
    3) Fines will be administered on people who do not observe social distancing of 1.5 meters with the exception of household groups.

    Dutch health department still says there's no health risk with children playing together with other children as they advise that children do not contract or transmit the virus. Find that strange as I don't think other countries advise that.
