    You are correct yes. However, the positive test number should be greater than confirmed cases based on that thinking. My point over the last few days is the opposite is true. More confirmed cases than positive tests.

    Did we not have 58 positives and 52 cases over 72 hours?

    The discrepancy could be down to the cut off point each day?

    For example the HSPC last 24hr data could be up to midday.
    The daily numbers from the HSE are up to midnight the day before.

    I thought they changed that a few months back? It used to be 11am-11am then went to the actual 24 hour figure.

    And as one thread meanders towards it's ultimate fate, a new one bursts out of the ether

    RIP XIX
