Covid-19, Covid-ID and Covid-IV

We really are fcuked!

When did these new versions appear?

Beasty · 27-03-2020 07:23PM

Just on the back of a request from a user. We have no room to include the daily HSE/Government update time in this thread title. However I can put up a closed sticky with the info if there is a demand.

Is it due at 8.45 tonight? Does anyone have a link to where it can be seen and where they announce the times?

Thanks

But surely as someone who should be an expert on not getting it, notwithstanding that he engages with many people, it just looks like a failure.

That's like saying a firefighter shouldn't go near a fire.

Agree, for all 3 high profile people to catch it together and early is a failure. You would not trust their leadership.

Yeah that's what I'm saying.
I was trying to give George Lee the benefit of the doubt but as you say it's Covid 19

Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro on Thursday exempted churches from coronavirus lockdowns by classifying religious activity as an essential service.

Going to church worked so well in South Korea...

The firefighter analogy might apply to heroic healthcare workers but not a guy like that.

He's not tending to patients. All he has to do is step back a metre and he can't do that.

we have 10 deaths today. No matter what we do now, this will double every two to three days for the next 14 to 15 days.

This will be 200-300 deaths a day!

What can even be done anymore? All thats left now is the essentials. We fùcked around too long.

This isnt America where we can have the Gardai just start shooting at people for refusing to listen/obey so this is it.

If people can't be bothered to check back a few pages (even a few posts sometimes) I highly doubt they'll bother to check another thread

Vallance hasn`t tested positive for the virus, not yet anyway.

Fergal Bowers mentioning further restrictions.

Its difficult to say what these could be. Id imagine itl be around flights etc. Its hard to see what else they could be.

There's no cure so the only help a hospital can offer you is assistance in breathing, if your symptoms are mild you won't need that.
The body can take a long time to fight off a virus like this, there have been reports of as long as 5 weeks.
It's not something to worry about if it lasts a long time, only if breathing becomes difficult.

Thanks for this, hard not to worry

what % of people that end up in ICU recover do we know?

Jogging is fine, going for a walk is fine....
Being outside in general is fine.... just avoid large groups, crowds. Its pretty easy to do considering the circumstances.

Especially if you might have hypertension etc. Its a risk factor for CV. Exercise is one of the activities seen as key in reducing it. Thereby the knock on effect being you might reduce your risk at developing severe CV.

It might be around specific clusters and ICU beds as they have called these areas of concern.

Thats a bit harsh. I have seen a very noticeable difference in people these days. Definitely efforts being made across the board.

We also have to remember there will be a time delay for effects to be seen. Its only been a week and a half really and you wont see impact on numbers for a while yet.

I think it may be something like 75%, based on a few different stats from this week.
