Someone i know in his 70’s used one of those phones up until last month. Still works perfectly :-)

These days a phone may be seized as it contains material evidence, back then it was seized as it could be a murder weapon!

The virus doesn't come for Putin, Putin comes for the virus.

Someone earlier posted a link to a video with over 40 ambulances waiting outside a hospital in Moscow. With one driver saying he was waiting over 15hrs to deliver a patient. Bloody heartbreaking

I always think, what if it was WWII and like London and the blitz, we had to have blackout blinds at night.
Just takes one person to open the blind or have a nighttime BBQ for a bomber to see the light and flatten the town.
One person's action affects many!

Absolutely no way would a Folkewolfe pilot have spotted someone who had opened a blind on Shepards bush

Maybe, but he would have spotted the DJ with the strobe light and the tacky 80's music at the street party!

A further 103 crew members on the USS Theodore Roosevelt aircraft carrier have tested positive for coronavirus. Brings the total to 550 from the ship so far.

One crew member has been admitted to intensive care in Guam.

It's hard to imagine a virus has the potential to knock out a state of the art aircraft carrier. Sailors on a long deployment on a sub would be feeling lucky. Probably stressed as they could become the main line of defence.
How did it not spread as much on planes? Such a long flight and close proximity to people.

The one where the captain wrote the long letter to Trump (5 pages is too much for him to read) and promptly got dismissed?

That's the one. Captain should have wrote half the first page saying Trump is the best ever president... Then end with... Get us all off the ship!

One of the deaths due to this virus, was young and no underlying conditions was on a flight from the UK. When he got back he was notified that someone on the plane 2 seats ahead of him was positive.

I understand there would be some that would have cought it. I just figured how infectious it is, how cramped planes are and how long people would be on them, that they would have caused a spike in cases is all.

Having said that he could have caught in the uk and not on the plane.

How much of a mortgage did these people get on average?

Someone paying 1200 a month who has a mortgage of I reckon say 320k plus over 30-35 years.
It’s not possible to get a mortgage of over 220k on 55k in Ireland let alone 320k.

you're only referring to people who have taken mortgages out in the past couple of years when the central bank restrictions kicked in.

plenty of people on 55K paying 1200 or more a month with older mortgages

I've just looked in on this thread from Time to time, wondering have any of yis figured it out yet? That it was a rouse to deflate an obviously over inflated world economy, are yous still wearing your mask's or what's the latest?

Are ye just referring to Dublin prices here? Plenty of people with new mortgages on 55K paying 1200 a month.

Walt Disney World in Florida has announced it is to furlough 43,000 workers indefinitely from April 19th.

The theme parks around the world were closed in the middle of March.

I spent a lot of Sunday sleeping so I'm still up and wide awake and full of energy. Good morning to you all.

Have a look at this:

The about about the MMR vaccine. Its saying it may help with the covid19. Much and the same kind of stuff as the BCG. Early days in their studies.

French President Macron to address the nation tonight and announce at least several weeks more of lock down describing the situation in France as "very serious".

tails_naf · 13-04-2020 06:20AM

Looking at the world stats per population, it seems ireland is one of the worst, if you exclude all the small countries like Andorra, etc. Of the countries with a few million population there's only really 4 or 5 countries with more cases than us. This is not down to just testing as we're way below many countries on testing per population. Any ideas why? Is it down to what's being counted, or something else?

Something I was wondering about the BCG... how are they able to use it now considering it was not available in Europe since April 2015? Is it only in Australia?

autumnbelle · 13-04-2020 07:24AM

Why is Australia doing so much better then here?
