    Did actually watch the exchange between the two of them yesterday?

    What you are saying happened didn't actually happen.

    Sorry, but, it's as clear as day that you are wrong.

    I know what I've watched. And I know what I've seen happened.

    Do you really believe that saying: "Sorry, but, it's as clear as day that you are wrong", makes me wrong?

    But I believe that you strongly want to believe it.

    You could say suspiciously low number of new cases compared to deaths .

    Explain?

    Does anyone know who she is?

    Don’t know if this was answered (probably was multiple times but I ain’t going through 30 pages to find out) but the ‘journalist’ attacking Holohan yesterday was Jemima Burke, who, going by Twitter is related to Josiah Burke, seemingly a disciple of GO’D and Jim Corr.

    137 cases is a big drop

    French had ill team members too, as did the US, lots of athletes were sick apparently

    Wuhan was 20c at that time, not the winter olympics weather typical of flu like ilness
    The Irish defence force sent boxers,shooters and a football team with Mick McCarty if I remember. Maybe we could ask them?

    Gonna make a guess and say that the nursing home tests are done as of yesterday

    Think we still need to see number of cases from the changing of criteria which may take a few weeks

    Why take away from a really positive day. Do you not like seeing a drop in cases. Regardless of criteria - we are heading in the right direction


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,150 ✭✭✭✭Eod100


    I still don't know how Prof Nolan is doing his models when testing criteria has only opened up a few days ago. Won't it take a while to see if there;s been any increase in case numbers as a result? And to accurately measure infection rate in community?

    If both are largely concentrated in residential and nursing home settings now, it would explain the fatality ratio.

    The irony.

    Of course I think a drop in cases is positive. What a daft assertion. I posted Gavan Reilly's tweet saying it was a positive trend. I'd just be cautious before new test results come in to draw a full picture.

    Corona is dying. We are turning the corner.

    And we're killing it, through our efforts.

    RIP to all those who've died since it began.

    Is the severity of the disease whaning a little? We had fairly high cases all along but the ICU numbers seem to be consistently high? A lot of the new cases must be relatively mild? I hope

    Corona is dying. We are turning the corner.

    Here's hoping.

    Im glad to see the number of new cases continuing to fall, it looks like by the time we Open Monday week the virus will have been well and truly crushed. It's a pity we wont be able to fly away but tbh I think were better off giving the foriegn holidays a miss unless its to visit a relative later in the year.

    That's very positive

    Be interesting to see how the expanded criteria affects new cases


  • Moderators, Home & Garden Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 18,885 Mod ✭✭✭✭DOCARCH


    I see UK figures are out. +5,614 new cases/+539 additional deaths.

    Down a little on yesterday but still high/not much downward trend in the daily figures.

    Look, you're wrong. I'm sorry, but you are. What you say happened, didn't actually happen.

    And we were all watching it here yesterday, we all saw what happened - and your interpretation doesn't tally with what happened.

    RIP, the 29 people who died


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,892 ✭✭✭Redo91


    I watched it she was NOT screaming ,
    She was asking the question and as it was being dodge she keep restating her point in the question ,

    As is normal with the new love of the Nation Mr Tony Hoolan used his now famous "its something I'm not aware of " which he started using often during cervix cancer scandal

    What the hell were you watching? He clearly answered her and then she kept talking over him thereafter. She was basically a raving lunatic.

    BREAKING: sadly a further 29 people with #COVID19 have died. 137 new cases confirmed too. 1,403 people have now so far lost their lives, while there are 22,385 confirmed cases in this country.

    Did they subtract the recovered figure from total cases?

    This is a great reduction to be seeing, hopefully it keeps going that way
