    They need to close the Airports to general public and only to be used for supply chain at this stage

    Worrying numbers today. RIP to those who died. :(

    Stay safe folks

    +1 to the airports or flights, especially from America. I think many people over there are still clueless about the seriousness of this virus. I would be very worried about Americans coming on holidays here this summer.

    Have we not banned flights from America? they were quick to ban us weeks ago when we only had a few cases, why have not banned them yet.

    Fuel, hardware, pet food for a start. I would usually spread my food purchases out to multiple small shops too.

    Fuel, I'm still getting mine from the local garage as they are cheaper than Centra and our supermarket doesn't do gas bottles. Believe the fuel depot in the next town is still open, but more costly to travel there and any savings would be lost.

    Same with the pet food, we've a small rescue and couldn't afford to buy it in the supermarket and the local pet shop who is still open as per the regs and gives us a good discount.

    Local builders providers also does essential items as per the regs.

    If your local shops for these items have closed on their own accord because of covid, assuming they suddenly haven't gone bankrupt its not really the supermarkets fault.

    Looking at the figures the last few days, anyone else think this was circulating well before the first official case here?

    Stop link dumping conspiracy videos

    Heard on Who news conference today that IMF have one trillion of a war chest for the aftermath of this covid 19. That’s not a conspiracy so major crash on way when they are talking like that.

    Do they pull the figures out of their arses? Some hospitals closed others down to a trickle and yet the media want people to believe that the health care system is overrun.

    The whole thing is a con job.No critical thinking happening..Lots of baseless stats and numbers being thrown around printed in red for effect.All stats are based off poor and questionable testing.

    Excellent Nationwide segment from 2018, the centenary of the Spanish flu, on over the last 10-15min. Amazing how shutdown etc mirrored today.

    I think they should get their **** together with shops etc. Order over phone pay with card. No cash. Everyone should have access to a card. If not they should get one. Or have a pre pay card . Arrange a time to pick up your shopping. Preferably out side in the car park.
    No one should be going into shops. No one should be handling money.
    This is currently the case with Glanbia co -op stores. And it works fine. I get my stuff. I don’t meet anyone I don’t go into a building.

    And right now that crash or major depression is probebly unavoidable and will overshadow the effects of the covid

    Why are you buying any of that in a supermarket? All available in smaller stores and no need to be so long in the supermarket. I've never spent as much in small local shops as I have in the past two weeks.

    Excellent work. The only thing I'd say is maybe the death figure for no change is a bit low. Like we are more likely to see 10-20 deaths per day rather than 5ish.

    Possible yes the person may not have felt 2 bad or thought they had a flu

    Yes devastating to hear IMF chief talking like that, let the well people go back to work and cocoon the vulnerable and elderly, we can do that and we should.

    Not really. He pointed out they should all be up to standard and following guidelines, some clearly are not. I'd see his original comments as assuming such standards were being followed. That's a HIQA purview anyway.

    Holohan definitely did take a swipe at nursing homes in the press conference. If standards are under HIQA's remit why comment at all?

    On 11 March, Holohan advised that ban on visitors was unnecessary:
    http://www.redfm.ie/news/coronavirus/department-of-health-blanket-ban-on-visitors-to-hospitals-and-nursing-homes-amid-coronavirus-unnecessary/

    On the same day, 11 March, Nursing Homes Ireland stated they believed the restrictions were responsible.

    On reflection, Holohan was wrong regarding nursing homes and the situation is now dire for the residents, the carers and families.

    I don't share the same enthusiasm for Holohan as others on here.

    Fantastic source, Coyote, thank you. We've done very well keeping things below 30%.

    Is there a graph for the number of tests carried out prior to and after Leo's big public address ?

    Anyone who did not know there be a recession around the world would have to be clueless. The only thing of hope is that people will still have confidence to buy after this other then other revessuons

    Couldn't be too long before sure we would've had cases present to hospital with breathing issues.

    2 cases were transferred from Letterkenny to Galway yesterday as Donegal is already over capacity. Dublin is also close being overran with cases and uhg are preparing for more transfers.

    I thought Debenhams would do well online, shame if they close their stores

    They were in trouble anyway before all this.

    Any retailer folding after a couple of weeks was never viable to begin with, a lot of them will be using this as an excuse to finally pull the plug.
