    Florida reported more than 11,000 cases and 93 deaths today, a new record from ~8,000, but not a single county has reported their numbers yet. These 11,000 are marked "Unassigned" and are likely historical, but still nuts to consider that they're going ahead with opening Disney in Orlando tomorrow.

    America has gone with the herd immunity strategy, in reality if not declared. It will cost several hundred thousand lives. Given the damage a continued shutdown would do they had no choice.

    I'd prefer that they all wear masks, social distancing etc but no one there really gives a **** on either side.

    A continual shutdown was not an option for America, the damage to the world economy would have 20 years to recover and the death toll from the effects of that would run in to tens of millions.

    Better there than here.

    Over 1k cases registered at meat plants and no unannounced inspections. Seems to be look to blame everyone but don't look at government departments to start with.

    The meat industry decides not the Dept.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,136 ✭✭✭✭is_that_so


    On any DB I've been on they've been covered in. Staff were exempt when it was mentioned 2 weeks ago
    Will the capacity still be the same?

    21 postive tests out of 9300, roughly 0.2% if I'm correct there

    supposedly yes due to social distancing which makes little sense on DB with every window seat available and sure your sat right infront or behind people

    inspections are by HSA and HSE, government departments. Any inspections they notified in advance

    It also makes you wonder if that plan to go 50% capacity is real or not.

    Its been at 50% since the start of phase 3 due to social distancing but like I say not sure what difference it makes when someone is sitting in front and behind on the bus. Not even a metre

    Probably some backdated cases you would imagine.

    Actual data shows 21 postive tests so theres a notification of some cases that aren't from the last 24hrs

    I see. It's the appearance of doing things that matters and presenting half a semblance of normality.

    Could the testing data on the dashboard be newer? Remember when they added to the backlog one Friday and they said they were swabs from mon/tue? Or have you noticed it following a pattern from dashboard to announcement on same day. (I know the figures are usually smaller at announcements due to tests vs new cases)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 91,399 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Is that high new cases again?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,172 ✭✭✭wadacrack


    Not a great week, definite signs of an increase in transmission

    I've been looking at this for the past week or two. It seems like there is a one day lag between the tests result and the number of cases. Just my guess based on looking at the data for the last while.

    From looking at the county figures, no new cases in cork, 9 in Dublin. Haven’t compared the rest.

    As was expected, its continually been flagged that cases would rise as we reopened. Time to get used to seeing cases at this level.

    Only now will we be seeing the impact of the later stages of phase 2 and anything from phase 3.

    But house parties seem to be the trend now

    I think they reported 27 yesterday and 21 today, while new cases were 23 and 25.

    Sounds a timing issue.

    Listened to the Pat Kenny report where they interviewed people arriving from Florida and Texas. Most pretended to be self-isolating, but of course out of 16 passengers on the flight, there was one Texan who said the thing is overblown. Welcome to Ireland, hope you enjoy touring the country!

    I thought with GAA clubs party fiasco Cork would have cases


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,767 ✭✭✭✭ACitizenErased


    Big increases in Waterford and Dublin yesterday.
