    Don't be so flippant, the United Kingdom didn't finish off repaying loans taken out during the war until 2006.

    After the war Ireland was more like Albania, low life expectancy, mass immigration, economy was flatlined for years, it wasn't until the 1990's that the Irish economy started to show some progress upwards, and then was up and down for the follow two decades.

    The fallout from the virus has set most countries back at least a decade in terms of their economic activity, and this is only around 100 days in!

    Except the food in present day Albania is amongst the best on the planet, quite splendid! :D

    jacks is impossible to maintain distance in. I just hope I don't have to try and hit from 2 metres out!
    I dunno TD, going by the state of pub jacks' and urinals throughout my life, it seems we've been socially distancing in Irish pubs for decades. :D

    Many worry about Artificial Intelligence. I worry far more about Organic Idiocy.

    Opening schools for even one day a week is a huge risk. Kids are said to be asymptomatic spreaders and are hardly known for social distancing, washing hands or coughing or sneezing into their elbow.

    One child could potentially infect numerous others who then bring it home.

    What is the alternative? There will be no vaccine for at least a year..so we keep kids locked inside without school for 1+ year?

    Spare a thought for these poor souls.

    CFR = Case fatality rate
    NR = Not reported

    NOTES: -
    * Daily increase numbers on these dates represent both new cases and older cases reported from Germany which results in skewed daily % increases and average case reporting % changes, numbers are broken down as:-
    Day|Date|New Irish Cases|German Cases
    42|10/04/20|480|1035
    43|11/04/20|553|286
    44|12/04/20|430|297
    45|13/04/20| 527|465
    46|14/04/20|548|284
    47|15/04/20|657|411
    48|16/04/20|629|95

    50|18/04/20|630|148
    51|19/04/20|445|48


    ~ Denotification of deaths:-
    10/04/20 – 1
    16/04/20 – 1

    ** "Recovered" rates are not reported by the Department of Health in the above link, these figures are taken from the Worldmeters and Johns Hopkins websites which use data supplied by the DoT to the ECDC under the WHO Guidelines for reporting.

    Recovered statistics are only be published as "recovered" following two successful tests of being clear of the virus under the WHO reporting guidelines, as a result it is likely the recovered data is skewed. Updated on 15/04/20 - The WHO reporting criteria has been changed recently to eliminate the 2 test requirement before reporting as recovered, now an outcome report is sent within one month of initial notification or when an outcome is known, the available health outcomes are either “recovered/healthy”, “not recovered", “death", “unknown" or “other", weather this helps create more accurate recovery numbers or skews them further is yet to be seen.

    *** Due to the above issue with reporting of recovered cases the number of active cases is also likely skewed.

    I dunno TD, going by the state of pub jacks' and urinals throughout my life, it seems we've been socially distancing in Irish pubs for decades. :D

    A single spaced outdoor queue to spacially divided toitets might be the answer. When I was in Namibia shortly before the lockdown there and here they were spraying the toilets before use, you had to get a staff member to open them for you, and were sprayed before & after use.

    Hard to believe we are catching up with Sweden in deaths per million.

    They are counting care home deaths BTW.

    Come back in three weeks and do that comparison again. Have you seen their trend for the past 10 days?

    I will go for my usual walk that’s about it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 12,270 ✭✭✭✭fullstop


    My neighbour who is a garda, whose wife is an ICU nurse, spent last night in a friends house, with all their kids, the other dad works in a hospice.

    Simon Harris keeps banging on about how the next two weeks are important, I’ve been on these threads for months, I know what’s coming, but his messaging is giving the impression that in two weeks we’ve won and that’s it. Like staying at home during a red warning until the storm just passes over and hey presto, let’s get back to it.

    I’m not confident tbh.

    I agree. Have noticed this weekend that people don't seem to give a **** about social distancing when out for a walk etc. Had a number of people nearly walk into me today, walking two and three abreast. Have been seeing neighbours having people over more and more in the past week as well.

    Hi, one thing that im curious about (i know its too soon for anyone to KNOW but would love thoughts) if you can get this virus more than once are you likely to have the same degree of illness or could you catch a more or less serious strain than you had previously. Not sure what difference it makes but im just curious. Also have alot of people now written off a vaccine being a likely option for this because of reoccurance or do we just still not know. Many thanks x


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 3,967 ✭✭✭jluv


    live quite rural. To he fair all along people seemed to be observing the guidelines. But today passed 2 lots of 2 people who do not live together walking side by side as you would on a normal day. 2 household where kids and grandchildren were at grandparents house,dont live there and grandparents were holding hands with the children. Because I hadn't noticed this all along I just found it strange today.

    The scientists are far from knowing this. Having likely suffered this virus I am really anxious to know this myself. The experts are arguing from “there is no evidence that one develops immunity from having had the virus” to “the virus apparently gives long term immunity”. There is in all probability at least Some months to a year’s immunity from having had it, given the behaviour of most other viruses and the experience from Sars1 virus there seems to be indefinite immunity. However the common coronaviruses that cause some of our common colds don’t seem to convey long term immunity. It’s pretty likely that if you!vs had it you are going to be ok for up to a year, but never guaranteed. There is no evidence that you will get it worse the second time, that myth has been pretty much busted as the earlier evaluations were incorrect.

    Thanks for that. And glad to know others are curious about this too.

    Even if a relatively small percentage of the community develop resistance to CV19 for only a year, it will mean that cases of the virus will be extremely low as the virus needs people to survive, therefore it could be mostly eliminated within a year even without a vaccine, once sufficient numbers have had it asymptomatically.....
    ....Something which won't happen under strict lockdowns.

    Re-infection looks highly unlikely. What is happening is probably due to patients not being fully recovered and a relapse occurring.

    Macron says he is considering introducing legislation in France that would make it illegal to use public transport without a mask.

    *Viable* virus has never been found in faeces to my knowledge.

    This should have been mandatory in every country in the world weeks ago.

    Norovirus? aka winter vomitting. So frequent it has it's own route.

    It's funny how a few weeks all these governments were telling everyone that masks are useless but now they re telling people use them. Imagine how many deaths could've been saved if they were not incompetent

    Not that simple.

    The reason most governments told people that masks aren't that effective was to stop people going out and buying large numbers of face masks and reducing the supply to healthcare workers.
    Even 40 days ago trying to get a facemask online was all but impossible..

    I was reading up about MERS. It emerged in 2012. Its a coronavirus. Its believed it came from bat's into camels and then into humans.

    2 things struck me:
    1) There's no vaccine for MERS. It emerged in 2012. That was 8 years ago.
    2) Infection is human to human transmission. Also infection can occur from infected camels.



    There's a few things here that worries me and in relation to this new virus.

    1) There's no vaccine for mers. Would it be doubtful a vaccine can come about for this covid19?

    2) Mers infection can come from infected camels. There has been reports of cats/tigers/dogs getting this coronavirus. Could it be possible that these animals, if infected can infect humans, especially cats and dogs because these animals are pets and part of the family for so many people. Like can dog licks from an infected animal pass it onto their owners/humans?

    3) Could covid19 eventually mutate with mers and become more letal?

    Deaths in Spain up to 1200, I assume this is some nursing home deaths being added perhaps?

    There is no vaccine for mers or SARS as it’s not required (I.e not financially viable).

    There will be one for CV19.

    MERS had no vaccine developed as it was isolated early and developing a vaccine wasnt commercially viable for any company. Not because a vaccine couldnt be made.
