How would aerosols get through a toilet that’s used regularly in an occupied apartment?

The aerosols obviously got through a dried up toilet U bend in a vacant apartment.

You really must be scraping the bottom of the barrell with this shyte ( excuse the pun)

I thought it was got to do with a certain type of pipe more commonly used in Asian countries that enables particle from the toilet to spread through air vents or extractor vents to other apartments? It happened with sars 1 too.

when you flush it spreads aerosol particles all over the room. That's why you're supposed to put the lid down first.

There a full scientific thread on this sort of stuff in AH.

Very informative

HSE Operations report.

31 covid paitents in hosptial. Increase of 1.

5 in ICU , 3 of whom are on ventilators. No change here.

5 cases diagnosed in hosptials today. Again like the last few days these account for the vast majority of new admissions.

There does now appear to be a trend developing of cases notified in hosptials being admitted for a night.

Very clear trend now of cases being diagnosed in hospital being admitted for a night.

Has been evident most of the week. This wasn't the case a few weeks ago but its very similar to what happened back in March when anyone and everyone was admitted

Now that I look there was actually more than 5 discharges today as St. James has gone from 0 patients to 3

I've only had a quick look and appears to have been a few. If your comparing post the numbers when your done.

Will be intersting to see if the 3 in James's follow the trend of being relased quite quickly but as we know its weekend now. Few if any get discharged until Monday.

Hub saying 2 discharges which like last night does not appear to be correct

Why don't they throw €1billion in to more ICU capacity then, what they are doing now is taking billions out of the economy in the approach they are taking with no proof it will save the pityful ICU from overload.

Where is the ICU capacity to show for the extra billions thrown at Health before this hit?
What happened the doubling of capacity we were promised at start of crisis? Already absorbed by non covid cases?

Lack of ICU capacity versus possible clusters seems more plausible to me as the reason we are out of step with rwst of Europe on this than any other explanation I have heard so far.

What do you all you make of the claims from Yale’s Harvey Risch about hydroxychloroquine?

George Lee said on the 9 o'clock news that there was 35 people in hospital tonight,Was he just making this number up I wonder?

But he didn’t realise the toilet bowl probably dried up due to the apt being vacant? There’s no way the particles would get through a bowl of water.

In all fairness that might be right. So fair play. I just wouldn't take the chance. If the virus is shed by shyte I wouldn't be caught dead in a shyte shed.

It was 35 at 2pm. Could have got it off the HPSC data which lags

"Health Minister Stephen Donnelly’s desire to criminally prosecute those found to have more than six visitors in their homes was axed following a last-minute intervention by Taoiseach Micheál Martin."

The Irish Examiner has learned that the proposal to have it as a penal provision was included in Mr Donnelly’s memo to Cabinet, but when it was debated by ministers, he himself said it was right to forego the proposal.

“He agreed with scrapping with the very proposal he was himself bringing,” one source said.

Further on

"The Attorney General Paul Gallagher is said to have been involved in the excising of the penal element."

At the end of the article:

"It is also understood Mr Martin sought for a plan to re-open pubs in the short term to be examined and developed and that was agreed."

Dear god....

This plot is interesting. Frequency of tests on the left with positives on the right hand axis.

Amazing how the trends follow. When you remove the true symptomatic cases then what do you have? False positives?

The only other explanation is an completely even spread of transmission across all test sites. Very unlikely.

Some alarming figures coming out of France this evening.

Perhaps most worrying is the fact that Macron has stated tonight that he cannot rule out returning the country to lockdown, although he wants to avoid doing so.

Both himself and Merkel are on the record as having stated at the start of August that EU countries must avoid new lockdowns at any cost. Things must be looking bleak for him to be talking up the prospect of a new lockdown.

It's Incredible the ignorance of the Constitution that certain members of the government have displayed recently, yet they swear an oath to uphold it.

Expected more from ff, you would think that it they had never been in government before.
