    Hse report is out for today (and yesterday)

    Now 47 in hospital, 7 in ICU. Heading into weekend so likely the number will climb. Beaumont which was empty of covid at one stage now he 13 patients. While it’s not climbing as fast, it’s certainly ticking up.

    Just looking at it the past 5 days, discharges are happening but not being taken from the total. I don’t know was it Monday or Tuesday but 6 were discharged with 2 admissions, figure went up by 2 instead of down by 4....

    Averaging 100 cases a day seems to be increasing the hospital figures by 1 a day. It went from 14 to 47 in a month, while the ICU figure stayed relatively stable. Not great, not terrible.
    If those 100 cases a day stay mainly in the under 45 age range, it would be sustainable.

    Confirmed unfortunately.

    I tend to ignore that graph of suspected cases.

    Today's numbers at 47 seem to largely be attributed to the 9 cases confirmed in hosptials.

    Its a common theme recently whereby the hosptial cases seem to be reflected in the admissions for a few days and then discharged. Then replaced by the latest hosptial cases.

    It's more or less in the middle between the pulmonary artery and the aorta. You do know it's only present in a foetus?

    My point was that in other countries the lockdown was far stricter and micro-managed. It is a fantasy to think we were unique in the level of micromanagement applied or control over our daily lives..
    We are talking about the whole pandemic as that is relevant to the state's attitude.
    In other countries they would have kept places shut or open, the rules here seem weird because they were trying to show flexibility and gives pubs a chance.
    The substantial meal concept has been on the books for decades in other licencing legislation, it was just repurposed.

    In Florida this was one set of measues:
    In the initial June 26 order, businesses that derived more than 50 percent of their revenue from alcohol sales were not allowed to sell alcohol on-site, meaning any bar attempting to reopen with a food license would have to effectively operate as full restaurant. But less than a week later, on July 1, Beshears issued an amendment to that order: Now, bars that were also licensed to operate as restaurants could stay open, regardless of the 50 percent mandate.

    And why would we have to compare our response to Florida? Why do we have to pick and follow countries with more draconian responses?
    Not to mention that we are not really close (yet) to their level of stuff that makes covid worse like older population or obesity rates?

    I was quite excited by the bradykinin storm discovery.
    If verified it would mean:

    1) They can avoid severe cases by damping down the bradykinin response vit D and (ironically zinc helps with that and hydrochloroqine in low doses with zinc will help dampen the bradykinin response)

    2) It explains long term covid, the recovery time from the damage the storm has done (but mostly reversible)

    3) The death rate has gone from 20% in jan to 3% in march to 1% now and with treatments targeted to preventing a strong immune response both cytokine and bradykinin i am quite sure the mortality will drop by another order of 10.

    Must say Im really optimistic that we have this bug almost beaten.

    And mostly with cheap stuff which was mentioned quite early enough yet mercilessly ridiculed and bashed.
    Who would think that vitamind D, zinc and hydroxychloroquine really work...

    I’m not dealing with ‘may be’... I’m dealing in the reality of what has happened, IS happening and what we are facing. :) I also don’t want to put anybody else’s house in order. I’m doing my bit... what everybody else does is up to them, but seeing as this is the covid forum I reserve the right to debate, discuss, criticize or praise, in line with the topic ! :)

    You give a toss enough to post on the subject and get all immature and emotive.

    I’m not sure if your mammy made you go to school but the difference between sitting in a car, waiting for somebody and observing public life out of the window and stalking people is quite sizable... but seeing as its you, not surprising.

    The lack of self awareness in your post is quite amusing. :D:D

    As I said, I dont give a toss what you do.

    You should probably write a complaint into rte and tell them they aren't allowed to show anything negative.

    What about the positive story of the two girls that spent a night clinging to a lobster pot? Being found after the night they had, was that not a positive story?

    RTE live for misery - the whole covid crisis they have very rarely ever showed any good news stories - shameful of them
    Even with what we know in this thread regarding the cases rollover they never mention it - was it not an RTE reporter using a 3 day average claiming how bad the number of cases were when nobody else uses a 3 day average?

    I do not know, let us say it is complicated. Life is a struggle. We all do have enough of our own problems and sometimes we tend to focus on uniportant things to put our own troubles on back burner. Like, would you not rather sit and enjoy your coffee thinking about what a beautiful day it is than getting worked up about some hypothetical "what if"? I do not know perhaps they do not have anyone vulnerable in their house and you worried yourself needlesly. Could be that these younguns are out so often that they have enouch of vitamin D that covid has no chance? Possibilities are endless. I mean we can live in comfort or peace and then we can live in fear of everything. It is up to us and nobody else.

    Well they didn't plan on doing that. It was a calm evening when they went out. How you think they were idiots in conditions they had no control over.

    That would be pointless exercise.
    Time and again they showed that in fact they aren't allowed to show anything positive.
