    They must be taking a while to decide what number to release today and what cases to hold back on.

    Yeah exactly. I’d say low number today, some announcement about further measures later etc then tomorrow ....
    Bam ! Big number.

    Everyone then goes, ‘wow They were so right so have done x’
    ‘What fine leaders we have’

    While no one cares to notice the data published is two days old.

    News now over, good time to release them if they are tripple figures.

    Funny how he always gets abuse for just republishing HSPC and HSE data on this thread.

    Amazing how that has now been twisted in misleading data. Fairplay to you. Very perculiar mindset.

    that's not why people are arguing with him.

    Surge planning for COVID is done through the maintenance departments at hospitals (of which a relative of mine leads), using sub-contractors. I can name companies who have provided equipment and framework over PM if you wish, it would be inappropriate to do so here.

    No need to name them, I'm well aware of the consultants brought in and the process involved in hospital bed planning. Sláintecare has changed the face of all that you may know in relation to bed planning. I'd suggest having a word with your relative, as your view on things are a bit dated.

    79% are under 45 years of age
    35 are confirmed to be associated with outbreaks or are close contacts of a confirmed case
    12 cases have been identified as community transmission
    26 are in Kildare, 13 in Dublin and the rest of the 17 cases are in Donegal, Galway, Kerry, Laois, Longford, Meath, Monaghan, Offaly, Westmeath and Wicklow

    Great that their are no deaths again.

    We should be see the real results of sick people in the hospital in 3-4 weeks. A few weeks ago we had approx 16 a day. Now that's x10.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,454 ✭✭✭mloc123

    so we *could* be looking at them announce 250.. or more tomorrow after the new updates


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,134 ✭✭✭caveat emptor


    20% are community transmission.

    That’s 1 in 5 people have no idea how they got it.

    Don’t think so. The demographic of people getting infected is different and many won’t require hospital treatment

    Where are the 18 in the mushroom factory? They were known about yesterday evening but not in yesterday’s figures and not in today’s.

    Interestingly Tipp not mentioned there despite there being known new cases. For tomorrow so

    I'm not going to argue over a hospital you don't work in, you either believe me or you don't. You said I piss you off, which in and of itself should be ignore-worthy

    I said the constant down playing is pissing me off, not you.

    Are you attacking me here saying I am not working in a hospital? What are you saying?
    If so why should anybody believe your claim of coming from a family of hospital workers?
    I have never been rude to you, don't be rude to me.
    Yes, I don't like the way you are trying to use facts and figures freely available to bolster your, often overly positive opinion.
    This was not an issue for me when we had few cases in the last few months, but I am disappointed in the lack of realism lately.
    I support many sides of this debate, including your posts usually, but I disagree with your opinion today.
    We are both entitled to our opinions and, it is up to other posters here to decide which of us is speaking from a basis of fact, generally known and available on gov.ie, and which is speaking from experience, gained from over 40 years in the Irish health service.
