It's fake news.
People who already wrecked their health by eating McDonalds and smoking shouldn't be counted.

Pointless.

You're forgetting to wash your hands after washing your hands.

Do have no control over the comings and goings in your household?

22 clusters in nursing homes according to

https://www.rte.ie/news/coronavirus/2020/0330/1127300-coronavirus-analysis-ireland-cases/

can anyone advise why the high number in nursing homes relative to the population. there are about 460 nursing homes in ireland.

is it possible that 5% of the population generally have got it or had it but most people just never noticed or felt like they had a mild cold???

Unless you have a fumehood or bunsen burner, you can’t keep things aseptic. If you thoroughly clean your hands entering the house, normal house cleanliness should be just fine.

I would add to that, wipe down your shopping before putting it away and then wash your hands one final time, then life as normal.

Yeh it would seem like thats the case, probably around 5% of the population does already have it, tests on random hospital patients in Belgium showed a figure around that size. But dormitory shared living spaces will always be breeding grounds, look at prisons as another example, so many breakouts there, so that probably further exaggerates it

Stats based on random testing of hospital patients can't be extrapolated to the general population.

Thanks Wakka, that makes sense, i appreciate that input.

Another reduction in deaths and cases in Lombardy, looks like it really is flattening.

Didn't someone say here the other day they knew one of the people who had died and that they were a nurse

Why are you doing all that? Once in your home should be no need for that sort of thing. Once home I only wash hands as normal (I.e. after toilet, preparing raw meat or if actually dirty).

caveat emptor · 31-03-2020 03:49PM

So we have a three body problem.

paddy C
HSE
irish times

HSE say no deaths
https://twitter.com/HSELive/status/1244942663142563841?s=20
Irish Times have report on one last Friday.
https://www.irishtimes.com/news/health/coronavirus-healthcare-worker-in-republic-dies-after-contracting-virus-1.4213892
Paddy C (aka devil) said there were four.

1, 2 or all 3 are lying / misinformed.
HSE wording seems suspect.
I wouldn't think a newspaper would getting something so inflammatory wrong.

Who knows.

World-wide COVID-19 deaths/resolved = 32582/197148 = 16.53%.

Lovely charts and graphs as usual.
guardian.co.uk, based on John Hopkins University 30th March

Usual caveats,
confirmed < > infected
confirmed totally inconsistent metric across countries and time
confirmed deaths from COVID-19 <> total deaths attributable to COVID-19

But the one i would say people are going to get caught out on, is your products you buy in shop were shelf stacked most likely that day.

If the shelf stacker has been coughing, sneezing, wiping their snout with there hands and then stacking its on your packaging.

Before anything enters my house, every thing is wiped down and cleaned in the garden and transferred into a know clean bag from the house.

My clothes are deposited in a box in the porch before i go in to shower.

Latest Lombardy Figures

New Deaths 381, down from 458 yesterday.
New Cases 1047, down from 1154 yesterday

Curve is seemingly flattening there.

Why not..? It was patients who had come into hospital for reasons unrelated to COVID, car crash, heart attack, etc.
