    The sample they use is PCR - not a test. They have never isolated COVID-19, so the results cannot be correct.

    My relations are a large undertaker family, and I can assure you that all death certs have COVID-19 on them, and that the death statistics we are being given are incorrect. An average of 100 people die per day in Ireland. Death rates on this time the last year are lower and hospitals are empty, as my relations are in and out of them regularly. Something doesn't add up.

    Check on RIP.ie.

    RIP is used at the discretion of the family, so not accurate.

    Not much different in age to you and I'd love to give my mum a hug too. But unfortunately, it's the 19th anniversary of her death next week. Just be glad that you will hopefully get to, very soon!

    isn't the relaxation of restrictions depended as much on the pandemic public health system as well as the public compliance?

    From what I've seen online, forget what paper, it is about double the death rate this year for March compared to last year.

    So a lot of extra deaths, more than just declared.

    That's inline with across Europe. Approximately double death rate, Italy was more than thought.

    So 223 deaths are being added today. Is that correct? 185 probables.

    Because that bring deaths over 1,000 so far.

    That would be a very big number then. Is it for the whole duration?

    I'm guessing it was people with who there was no chance to test before they passed away. And yes, the figure refers to the entire Covid-19 pandemic period starting in early March.

    So what are you saying? The figures are not truthful? What possible reason could there be for this?

    No, its my own estimation. Looking at their figures for last few days there's a steady downward trend.

    They had a day were they only 1,063 2 weeks ago and other days lower as well so it's very perturbed.

    Nobody seems to know... Would be nice and handy if our CMO could clarify, seeing as that's why he's addressing the public. :confused:

    As of Tuesday midnight the number of cases among healthcare workers was 4545 so the increased testing has shown how prevalent it is in that sector.

    They are putting their lives on the line going to work.

    I think it also shows the benefit of the targeting of the testing.In fairness we are far more advanced than a lot of countries in our testing of the care settings and also in reporting in compliance with ECDC standards.

    Lads where has this 1,000 number of deaths come from ? Did the CMO say this during his briefing or is it someone else saying it ? RTÉ Ray Kennedy said there was 37 deaths today and the thread says 829.

    True, although they haven't reported more than 4,000 cases on a single day in the last 7 days, whereas before they were regularly. I am hopeful.

    (with increased testing too but still relatively low, currently at 7k per million, up from 5k (I think, open to correction) about a week ago.)
