    For all those complaining about PPE in Ireland, at least we got our orders in quickly, and sent the planes to pick it up quickly.

    The UK order is a complete mess:

    Honestly i disagree.Seeing as the infection rate is likey x7 times larger than previously known (as wee seen in california) this would show us the death rate to be a far lower percentage,we will have deaths but we will know whos more vulnerable and take action in them areas.

    Part of fighting this virus IS people getting back to work,taking no risks with hygene in public etc.Sitting at home will not do anyone any good,the virus will burn itself out in time.

    I really hope the public hygiene push continues with social distancing for ques and hand sanitisers in store remaining.

    No need to ever get rid of those and good habits to get into.

    Once we have a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine, the rollout of SARS-CoV-3/4/5 would not be such a task and be a second annual vaccine along with flu.
    The Professor developing the vaccine at Oxford said in an interview that the mutations see was seeing were minor. The targets of vaccine research are still part of the virus, and the virus is largely stable. This apparently behaves very differently to a flu/influenza virus.

    Plus we have over 80 different vaccine candidates, which is a lot of bullets to be firing in the hope one hits.

    If this Vaccine proves to be a success then hats off to the Brits. We badly needs this.

    Hopefuly an announcement will be made soon on easing restrictions. Can't take much more of this !!

    I think this is fair enough once they put proper process in place. A lot of takeaways have been open all along and there has been no suggestion from authorities that they are a transmission risk.

    I have also noticed a couple of restaurants near me that are opening for click/collect for the weekend in the last couple of weeks.


    I haven't had a burger & chips in weeks, gonna look up my nearest SuperMacs when they open up! If more than 2km still an essential journey I hope!

    Edit: official statement:

    https://www.supermacs.ie/supermacs-opening-stores/

    Yeh I don' think the chippers etc are a risk. Most of them have a strict policy of having two people in at a time and Perspex screens etc.

    Your supermarket much more of an issue I would think. I'd say the like of the DIY stores will be amongst the first to reopen also.

    Wtf are you talking about?

    The Brits are in full lockdown. They just did it late and suffered thousands of pointless deaths.
    Their economy is still in ribbons.

    Something interesting I found out about coconut oil. It has lauric acid and when consumed it converts to monolaurin in the body.

    Here's the interesting part, monolaurin binds to the lipid part of the virus and preventing the virus from attaching and entering host cells so makes it harder for an infection to take hold.

    I've been spooning it back.

    CFR = Case fatality rate
    NR = Not reported

    *Note the big increase in recovery figures today*

    Source: Department of Health, the Health Protection Surveillance Centre and the HSE.

    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
    49|17/04/20|597|112
    50|18/04/20|630|148
    51|19/04/20|445|48


    ~ Denotification of deaths:-
    10/04/20 – 1
    16/04/20 – 1
    21/04/20 – 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.

    Something interesting I found out about coconut oil. It has lauric acid and when consumed it converts to monolaurin in the body.

    Here's the interesting part, monolaurin binds to the lipid part of the virus and preventing the virus from attaching and entering host cells so makes it harder for an infection to take hold.

    I've been spooning it back.

    I have been horseing the vit d in everyday for two months.Have a suntan now too seeing as the weather is good.

    CFR = Case fatality rate
    NR = Not reported

    *Note the big increase in recovery figures today*

    Source: Department of Health, the Health Protection Surveillance Centre and the HSE.

    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
    49|17/04/20|597|112
    50|18/04/20|630|148
    51|19/04/20|445|48


    ~ Denotification of deaths:-
    10/04/20 – 1
    16/04/20 – 1
    21/04/20 – 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.

    How can there be proper social distancing on public transport? Especially for people that need to get multiple buses to work, daily.


    Restrict numbers getting on? I think that's the only possibility when there are relaxations of the restrictions (I'm assuming that when these relaxations come, they will be phased).


    Increased public transport might make this more feasible as well as companies getting back to business with staggered shifts for employees. Some people have called for restrictions to be kept on private transport, which might help increased buses/trams arrive at their destinations quicker.

    Wondering about that phone call to thank the Chinese by Leo Varadkar?
    Turns out one of the conditions is buying PPE and other stuff from China was the governments who did were forced to show public appreciation towards China despite paying for it.
    There is also resentment in Europe towards China over price gouging.

    The Professor developing the vaccine at Oxford said in an interview that the mutations see was seeing were minor. The targets of vaccine research are still part of the virus, and the virus is largely stable. This apparently behaves very differently to a flu/influenza virus.

    Plus we have over 80 different vaccine candidates, which is a lot of bullets to be firing in the hope one hits.

    Its in pre-print but...
    Researchers have "direct evidence" that Microbe "has acquired mutations capable of substantially changing its pathogenicity”

    The researchers assessed the viral load - meaning the amount of the virus. The most aggressive strains created up to 270 times as much viral load as the least potent type. Their findings also indicated that a "higher viral load leads to a higher cell death ratio".

    Definately needs more research, but not looking good for a vaccine.. also there are mild versions and more aggressive strains.. Italy/Spain aggressive apparently.

    The UN are talking about an additional 170mn facing famine globally.

    Parties that were bedrock support for the EU in Italy now are hostile, the anger there is raw.

    This year will see a global economic contraction, first time since the great depression.

    I support the lockdown but it is a balancing act.

    This is a century defining event.

    Thankfully they understand what needs to be done to keep the economy going now, massive stimulus.

    People should focus on the changes society will need to make instead of just hoping for the unlikely best-case scenario. It is so irresponsible to leave people on the line like this. The WHO has come out and said that there is no guarantee of immunity for this once you've had it so that realistically means that our bodies have no way of protecting themselves against it.

    I'm actually glad in a way that people are coming around to the idea that there won't be a vaccine. Research indicates that there are more than 30 known strains of this now and we have absolutely no reason to believe that we can create a vaccine for this dynamic, RNA virus which can change its form so rapidly.

    Reorganisation of society won't be easy and it won't be ideal. Oil is tanking because they know they'll have to store it indefinitely until this is over. That's the key there though. If you're living in the city or suburbs and have to drive to get where you need to go for anything except very specialist requirements, you're going to the wrong place. Neighbourhoods need to be more established and used advantageously so that we're not travelling all over the place and risking the spread of this.

    Many people have shown their abilities to adhere to the strict rules and their good morality could definitely extend to reshaping their lives for the better. The first step would be the creation of a jobs board, online ideally. Local coordinators will put up the jobs available in the area and these will be filled by local people based on their credentials. Businesses which can no longer operate can be subsumed by the community group and transformed into something which best fits the needs of the particular area.

    Not everyone is going to be able to find work for a good while so why not encourage people to voluntarily participate in helping community gardens and give them a wage through local credit union. Public spaces can be used for growing food as well as flowers. The products can be sold in a "pay what you can" type of way.

    It's not going to happen overnight but I'm currently advising the neighbourhood group in my area and they're making provision for a more sustainable local community so that even when the recession does hit, we can try and maintain some self-sufficiency. We're actually optimistic that we'll be able to look after everyone quite well in spite of job losses and recession.

    I actually can tell you that one, cause I saw someone asking a reporter about this weeks ago! It's closed, yeah. No special allowances on that one this time at least.

    While I very much agree with you on the need for more community action at local levels this part is a mix of scaremongering and hype and little enough science going on.

    You're confusing the number of "strains" with the mutations viruses like the flu come up with that makes vaccines less effective/up to date. It depends where the mutations are. And no it doesn't "change its form" rapidly or not. Cobid19 has stable areas where vaccines and immunity can be triggered, flu doesn't, or not to the same degree.

    A basic analogy would be; you come up with a weapon system that targets and kills animals that look like dogs. Now dogs have loads of individual mutations and "strains", but the system recognises "Dog". That's Covid19. Flu is where this year they look like Dogs, next year they look like Aardvarks and the system has to relearn.

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

    To be fair, the UN were saying that famines were looking inevitable before this crisis. The problem now is that wealthier nations will be so focussed on keeping themselves standing, that there will be considerably less help forthcoming for countries that are facing starvation.

    I agree this is a century defining period. By 2040 some regions of the world will have governments and societies that are unrecognisable from what was in place in 2010.

    This period will form the central core of history curricula in the latter part of this centry, like the two world wars did in the 1900s.

    I think I say this on boards about five times a day at this point, but trying to maintain a lockdown will become increasingly more difficult and will make things worse than starting to lift restrictions.
