    Wonder was it the same thing in Nursing Homes? Hiqa inspections I mean. I am not sure.

    I’m not one to speculate but a friend was a care assistant in a home and before Covid had mentioned the conditions being tough in her nursing home unless HIQA were due in on a pre announced inspection.Where they would budget For more staff and external resources that week .

    HIQA and nursing home inspections rarely appear in the same sentence!

    5 deaths reported and 69 cases

    Wonder are many or any backdated. That came out of nowhere after 6 days of zero deaths.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 769 ✭✭✭PmMeUrDogs

    Doing good, bank holiday was expected to be a peak, 4 of the deaths are later reported cases.

    Four are from may and June. The vast majority of poster labelled as sugar coating aren't actually doing that as can be seen from several posters including myself who have posted about worrying and needing to find a balance.

    63% of deaths in total from nursing homes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,143 ✭✭✭blowitupref


    Higher number of cases than I expected today. A shame we couldn't go a week without a death but 4 of the 5 deaths reported today are from April to June.

    That doesn't matter, they were still reported today.. someone's family and loved ones.. the cases of deaths are never for that exact day!!!

    Depends whether they are cluster related or new community cases.

    Average of 2 per day being admitted to hosptial and 1 every 5 days to ICU


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,226 ✭✭✭✭y0ssar1an22


    wonder is there anything they can specifically attribute this to? if pubs, may want to rethink. if workplace, the same. hopefully they have this data.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,010 ✭✭✭GooglePlus


    Ominous, particularly with an undoubted spike to come a week or two from now after bank holiday shenanigans in several coastal towns/villages. Wouldn't surprise me to see three figures soon.

    Put the wife and kids on it.

    Aye, it's a scandal that slaughterhouses have been proven clusters but have not been closed. Sure it's just cheap immigrant labour, be grand.

    And so what are you saying? They could be from this second or yesterday or a month ago. They still died from corona.
