its was specifically mentioned yesterday during the briefing, Glynn said that because most of cases came from a specific known source it wasn't the same as what kildare became.

Laois (Ballybrittas) and Offaly (Edenderry) had single localised clusters and were locked down - rules have been quietly changed. Kildare had 3 outbreak centres that could also have been controlled

Ours is clear too as long as you listen to the CMO & crew. The new government have not done well on communication. I agree on the mental side of things but it does look like Kildare will come out of it at the end of next week based on current numbers. That's 5 working days or 9 sleeps!

I don’t share your view of the CMO, but that’s fine diversity is good.

I really admire your optimistic outlook that’s actually refreshing- kudos

What's the average length of stay in hospital due to this? Surely has decreased recently?

Hospitalizations are building but no increase in ICU really. Maybe those hospitalised are testing positive in hospital?

Why isn't anyone dying?

People are not dying yet because it is the younger age group being infected. But once it starts spreading into the community, especially now schools have returned, it will get into nursing homes again. Hospital admissions will rise, health care staff will become infected and off we go with the increase in deaths. Simple really. Whats not to understand?????

Exactly. People can't have it both ways.

It is either deadly virus that hospitalised 15% of cases or there were way more cases than we thought and the hospitalisations were 10 times less at 1.5%

All the evidence is pointing to the latter.

Funnily enough I was saying the exact same thing since early March.

So when you state 10% need ICU care we are talking about 10% of confirmed cases. If we only confirming 10% of actual infections then reality is only 1% of people will need intensive care. I was taking the infected figures and percentages from Italy as gospel until yesterday when it became apparent there was a hell of a lot more out there than reported cases...

Someone should tell him you're meant to do a mic drop not a phone one :pac:

I guess it's safe to say there will be no possibility of any 12 Pubs Of Christmas sessions going this year.

The only country in Europe with boozers closed.

Another way to look at it is, Leo got to be the good guy, from a PR perspective, as he was the one and is the face of financially saving the pubs...

Thus, from a Publican's perspective, making Martin, Scotch Egg and NPHET look like the bad guys...

It wouldn't even cover their tv sports subscription for 6 months.

Is there a number I can call to alert the HSE to a person I know has flown into ireland from two different countries and did not quarantine. I know three individuals that they would have been in contact with.

Surely those contacts should be tested.
