But no, there are countless people around who don't seem to care if they get it or not - most likely asymptomatic and passing it on - who are prolonging these restriction longer for all of us. It's those who are crying about the restrictions and don't obey them are actually prolonging the very thing they want to end.

The very fact that they had to bring in these laws is because there are gobshítes who are too stupid or too selfish to follow the plan. The plan being not to spread the virus and overwhelm out limited health system to a stage where loads die, unnecessarily. You can talk all you want about your civil rights when we get this under control. The sooner we do that, the sooner people get back to work.

I'm kind of hoping the virus does cause billions of deaths as the human race has proven itself to be so easily manipulated into obsequious compliance with absurd and entirely disproportionate diktats, all propaganised for by so-called free media, that it doesnt deserve to survive.

I’m not even sure where you got 21% from. In our case the infection/death rate is 4% and that is going off a system where only vulnerable and health workers are being tested. If we had the capacity to test all people with mild symptoms our death rate would be much lower and that’s before you even factor in the 50+% of asymptomatic carriers.

Lockdown till Vaccine i reckon the only way :pac:

Some fat 100k a year HSE admin clerk will probably be ringing liveline demanding this thread be shut down, theres a few of us that are not going along with the scaremongering.

Which would indicate nearly all of the 33 were over 80. Which would indicate that there are a few/many nursing homes where it is making rack. But this isn't being reported. Why..f**k knows.

alwald wrote: » To calculate the global percentage of deaths we need the total number of cases with an outcome and the total number of deaths. Total number of cases with an outcome is 560216 which is 100% in our maths and the total number of deaths is 118984 which is X%. So (118984*100)/560216=21%. The total number of active cases is out of the equation as their outcome is still unknown so 21% is the current death rate but is subject to change.
