But obviously the number of Covid patients in them doesn't suit your narrative. Hence the smart arse answer.

There is another possible explanation - maybe I just don't know

Any word on the beer situation yet?

What's the hospital situation?

17 in hospital with 2 in ICU.

You could have looked that up easily, so obviously have a point to make.......

Thanks for numbers. I certainly didn't know.

Cases are only one part of the story. It is good to know the full picture - Cases, Hospitalised and ICU.

We need to track this very carefully and not get bogged down on one particular element.

Yes, I do. It is not enough to post up case numbers without the context of hospital numbers.

Was in Liffey Valley today and it was an absolute disgrace . People milling around everywhere , the food hall was packed and no control whatsoever on numbers
People hovering waiting for tables to be free and sitting down before staff could wipe them . No one paying any attention to how many packed into the food hall

One of the best Positivity rates in a long time though still a high number of positive tests.

Hospitalizations are increasing so hopefully that shuts up the 'anti mask, Harmless cold, flat earther' brigade for some time

Very similar but good to see that less than 1 person per 100 tested is showing positive.

Another example of reinfection

25 year old with no underlying conditions, tested positive, recovered in about a month and had 2 negative tests. Reinfected with a different viral genome, but this time req'd hospitalisation and oxygen.

https://twitter.com/VirusesImmunity/status/1299342270177726464?s=20

That's pretty bad news but entirely probable. Wonder how herd immunity is going to pan out. spoiler:

it won't.

China is never going to tell the west anything to the west about this virus. They've lied by omission throughout the crisis. We should be looking at what they are doing and ask why are they doing it?

It's not like they are super humanitarian towards their population. They've driven tanks over, put them in concentration camps, starved millions of people, drowned hundreds of thousands when a dodgy dam collapsed.

Anyway we can agree they are not the kindest. If it was worth sacrificing a large chink of the non productive population they would have done it by now. It's costing their economy billions but they obviously know it's the only option with this thing that originated there. They know more about this than they are letting on and I'm basing on their reaction to it.

So a few backlog cases will be added into today's case number. Good to see positivity rate drop.

If it is not in the constitution, then it is not unconstitutional.

Quote the Supreme Court Judgement that specifies how wearing a mask has any bearing on any matter whatsoever.

It is nonsense. Clearly you must have an alternative constitution to the rest of the nation.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bodily_integrity#Ireland

In the Republic of Ireland, bodily integrity has been recognised by the courts as an unenumerated right, protected by the general guarantee of "personal rights" contained within Article 40 of the Irish constitution. In Ryan v Attorney General it was pronounced that "you have the right not to have your body or personhood interfered with.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unenumerated_rights

Unenumerated rights are legal rights inferred from other rights that are implied by existing laws, such as in written constitutions, but are not themselves expressly coded or "enumerated" among the explicit writ of the law.

Are the rumours I'm hearing about a possible nationwide lockdown returning true?

All your views appear to be right wing.

Serious discussion?

Risk assessment for ploughing championship attended by over 100,000 each day last year.

You mentioned the ploughing championship where 100s of thousands attend, when we only ever had 200 spectators at a football match in the last 5 months, which was then removed.

Do you think the old and vulnerable are talking about the ploughing championship?

That's why I think you are right wing.

This discussion is over and has been for a while.

You really are narrow minded go back and read the post and try and understand the biggish words. You claimed in error sporting events do not contribute much from an economic standpoint - that is wrong they do. That is not to advocate them taking place currently but a recognition of a serious loss of local revenue. That is undeniable.
Are old people talking of it yes they are there is life outside the cities and lamenting the cancellation of an event you enjoy adds further to mental problems - you do realise there are serious mental health issues in the wake of Covid and people think back with sadness to the good old times even if they were only last year.
To make a ludicrous statement that I am right wing as I support Chelsea shows your ignorance. Living in West London as a 7 year old boy one is more likely to have Peter Osgood as a hero rather than Edward Heath.
To deny science and risk assessment have a huge role to play in understanding and combating this pandemic is quite frankly childish and incorrect. Have you ever been involved in an assessment or a HAZOP you should they are enlightening.
