    A bit annoying if they cut from the UK presser to ours, maybe they are waiting. HSE and RTE must know plenty are keeping a keen eye on across the water.

    I think most of us would rather here ours.

    In Bergamo 900 people die on average during March. So far this March 5500 have died. I don't think anymore needs to be said about that.

    I was referring to only Irish numbers and how they are recorded, as Dr Holohan said last night

    Even though it might not be a big % increase on the day before, 424 new cases and 22 deaths seems like a lot to me for a pretty small country. India, Russia , Brazil and some other much larger countries are only reporting around 500 or so new cases daily the last couple of days

    These figures are not nice and we still have 2 weeks to the anticipated peak

    its not nearly as contagious but it hasn't gone away ye know

    In Australia they tried drugs against TB to fight this virus and it looks promising. I wander if kids are resistant to this novel coronavirus because maybe this vaccine is still fresh in them, so stronger working?

    156 ICU admissions - so 8 in one day seems manageable.

    Watching the UK presser. I’m increasingly impressed with Matt Hancock.....he seems to be one of the more grown up people I have seen in and around the cabinet in recent times

    I must say I'd disagree.Just listened to him waffling on in an answer to a question about whether their lack of testing in the early stages had cost lives.He answered about what they were proposing to do in relation to future testing rates.

    Totally dodged the question.

    I think people are putting too much emphasis on a vaccine solution. We know that is too far down the road and no guarantee how effective it is.
    What we should be concentrating on is an effective treatment plan which will save lives and reduce the seriousness of the illness.
    See below for one of many examples of studies looking at an effective treatment:

    Interesting - six more discharged, and just one more admitted.

    I would like to see number of tests each day v number of positives.

    The more you test the more positives you will get onviously.

    I won't since cigars are bad for your health. :D

    50 would have been result of a previously suggested method.

    For illustrative purposes.

    Mean: 24.07
    Median: 6
    Mode: 5, 6
    Set: 2,3,4,5,5,5,6,6,6,8,45,67,77,98

    No, only 15 people admitted to ICU have died. So most of the deaths appear to be occurring at home/nursing homes

    Even then it will take some time to mass produce a vaccine. I fear this virus will be a problem for 2 years and possibly a bit longer.


    Come on mate, you really don't know this, none of us do. Don't waste your energy in getting worked up about something that might never happen. Save your strength for the unlikely scenario that you suggest does actually occur.
