Is he for real? Self appointed media rep for the HSE? If the family want to go public, then fair enough.

Trump basically telling everyone get back to work, no longer will we allow the solution be worse than the problem. I see the expert Doctor Fauci is no where to be seen in this update. This is clearly going against everything he suggested.

No sign of Mike Pence either? Trump is going all in on the malaria drug to act as a vaccine for the virus

If you click report on Twitter you can pick personal information as the reason. I muted him because it was annoying me how despicable he is, he'd probably stop posting if we didn't give him attention

What's essential in people's mind, apart from food and meds.

For example most people I know don't have a landline, just a mobile. Some even in Dublin don't have broadband.

So if your mobile dies, you can't buy a new one if the likes of these shops are considered non essential you can't call for a doctor etc and your hardly going to go up to your neighbors to make a call.

Yes there is Tesco mobile but in my experience their coverage is ****e.

That's it. Who decides what's essential or not.

Vape shops would be essential because of people using vaping to give up smoking. If vape shops are closed but petrol shops are open, those people might go back to cigarettes. That's one example.

The fact that he is trying to somehow make it seem right is unbelievable.
It's a gross invasion of privacy

Trump talking about hydroxychloroquine being rapidly approved by the FDA. Unless it happened in the past few minutes, this a (another) lie!

two friends of mine are taking that decision themselves tomorrow.
One has forced his manager to allow him WFH as he can do so no problem, the other works in a retail chain and is petrified as they are doing virtually nothing to keep the staff safe.

Mary Lou is correct - if a workplace cannot guarantee as much as they can the safety of their employees in the wrokplace, they should arrange WFH or close.

Each employer has a duty of care to their staff. I wonder if this is going to throw up some cases especially if staff contract the virus from a coworker and end up having long term issues due to it. (I work from home anyway but have heard of stories of ppl being forced to go into the office etc)

That's not how evolution or mutation works. If it mutates to be less fatal then so be it but it's interest doesn't come in to it . It's not a sentient organism and can't decide to become less lethal to it's host.

He needs to cop on talking about this drug! It's a chemical found in fish tank cleaner and people are drinking it thinking it will cure them.

A simple cough, sneeze, or passing through a virus-loaded exhalation can infect you.

I sort of get why the gov't promoted the 15-minute "rule", but surely they should have predicted that some people would misinterpret it?

Not sure. Sadly I think we can expect case numbers to really take off here. We are just sitting ducks for cases coming from the UK. Cheltenham probably didn't help either. And many people are not respecting social distancing. It wouldn't surprise me to see us registering 500 new cases a day at some stage next. Hopefully that will represent the peak.

Are the numbers released not from midnight the previous night anyway. They don’t release updated figures throughout the day

More obsessing about up-to-date figures.
Surely a daily overall figure to glance at is enough, such as with this site:
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/
Information like this is fine to glance at, but not pored over. Leave that to the experts, and check official information about trends maybe once a week. Obsessing over details just feeds into paranoia, and gets depressing, but also tends give wrong ideas about what is actually happening.

People just won’t get the community testing thing. Everyone is going to get infected the more people we know are infected the better.
To simplify:

High number of positives = good- sign of good testing
High number of deaths = bad- sign of poor testing and bad planning.

The ideal is to have a high infection rate and a low death rate.
