    Who paid for that?

    And they didn't stay at home to put the thing up.

    Have they started a single briefing on time? Don't care if it's only 5 minutes late. It is not that bloody hard to pick a time and go sit at the desk for said time. Had weeks of practice.

    Christ!

    They had a briefing earlier. They need to have a break. God forbid they discommode you by a few minutes.

    The UK is looking quite unwell and closing in on 10,000 fatalities.

    Their problems are going end up extending ours :(

    One of their CMOs had cited about 3’weeks ago that 20,000 deaths from covid would be very good outcome as their flu fatalities are about 8,000 annually.

    They added in figures for retirement homes that had not been added before now and not from the previous 24 hours, the real figure is 114.

    496 new deaths in Belgium: including 171 deaths in elderly care centers in Flanders between 18th and 31st of March

    i've a bad feeling the numbers today will not be good, hence the need for leo and co. and the late press conference.

    hope i'm wrong.

    The US now has only 800 fewer total deaths than Italy, so will probably overtake them tomorrow.

    Youngest death 32 years old. Jaysus. RIP to all who have died so far. Awful stuff

    Again, you don't know all the people. So you can't know. You've met many gaelgeoirs. Not all the gaelgeoirs.
    Some of the old style ones were prize assholes but I don't know if that is still prevalent. Recently found myself using it in public in the gym of all places. Actually quite refreshing!

    Wishing you all a lovely Easter Weekend


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,786 ✭✭✭wakka12


    Almost 1000 cases in Ireland in the last 48 hours, that is so many. I cant believe how many people think restrictions should already be lifted

    I'm clearly referencing the last few weeks of late briefings after releasing a time. It's ridiculous that they are late pretty much everday. It's simple punctuality.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,234 ✭✭✭✭normanoffside


    Median age of all deaths 82
    Mean age 70

    Why does this matter? I wish I had so little to be worrying about.

    7.3% increase. 157 in ICU.

    youngest death so far is 32. a number of other deaths of people in their thirties.

    I find the numbers useful as a trend indicator but do what you will with them. ICU and deaths are real and ICU levels are OK.

    They are. I know first hand as my wife has been working there, which makes today's extension all the more bizarre.

    There isn’t anything ‘up’
    Just people want 100s in both columns to make it ‘believable’

    Baffling really

    Punctuality goes out the window in a crisis. Can you imagine how many times Holohan has to take another important call as he is on his way in?

    Very very few gaelgoirs dont understand or speak English. I would say the number is close to 0 at this point or they are very old.
    I live in west Galway.
