Pubs won’t be opening now

Date is set now, they will open in areas that don't have local restrictions

I said a few weeks back, and I'll say again - there's no sugar coating the numbers.

Yes there was a backlog of about 166 cases, and yes hospital, icu and deaths are very low.

But if it's young people catching the virus and therefore not dying, how long til they pass it to their older loved ones, who are far more high risk?

Backlog and all that aside, cases are starting to steadily rise and the more the number rises, the more likely we'll start to see our health services overwhelmed again in the coming months.

I've just had an operation cancelled due to covid-19, be rescheduled for next month, and I'm starting to seriously worry it'll be cancelled yet again

Extremely concerning numbers. It's only a month ago people were saying if we keep it below 30 cases a day we are doing well. Hit over ten times that today. Very worrying for winter months. Social distancing more important than ever now.

This is the official report released by the HSE on the 07/09/2020.

On page 11 it states that 1677 of the total number of deaths (of a total of 1777) were from people who had underlying clinical conditions.
The total number of deaths in Ireland from Coronavirus up-to 05/09/2020 from people who had no underlying clinical conditions was 100.
The median age of death (years) is 84.

What is your thoughts on that???

So do you think all people with any underlying conditions should be left out of the death figures?

Why?

That is still a tiny portion of our population

It's a tiny portion, and an even tinier portion who currently have the disease (even if there are a large number without symptoms) however if the daily numbers continue to rise, there are going to be issues with the health system down the line.
It's as simple as that.

Still 547 cases across the last 3 days. Average of 182.

Pedro Sanchez definitely won't have another national lockdown in Spain. So why are our government and NPHET not ruling out a second lockdown here? Given that the recent rise in the number of infections is caused by an increase in testing, the situation hasn't got any worse.

Do we know where in Dublin the cases are occurring?

The pub reopening date today fails all the common sense tests for me given the direction of the numbers. I don't know what the government are doing.

I can't understand it either.

Maybe they have to be seen politically to be "willing" to get pubs open - knowing full well that it may not actually happen as planned.

182 in Dublin ? Jesus there’s more in dublin in one day then we were getting in the whole country recently. Outside of population of which Dublin has the most you’d wonder what other factor there is.

Localised lockdowns are the obvious method that this state intends to implement if required.

We had our summer fun, Dublin. Likely we'll be in lockdown.

Looking at the rates per 100K, a lot of countries are in the same boat but the demographic profile is very different to March. Now it's largely in the younger cohort , which judging by the hospital numbers at present, are mild cases.

Well the cases aren't occuring in the Pubs! It's not the Pubs which have been closed for the past 6 month's fault either!

It's hard for cases to occur in pubs if they aren't open.

Denny61 · 08-09-2020 05:48PM

If we had opened the wet pubs long ago..it would have spread out the people wanting to go to a pub ..Lesss then in each premises...up to now the rural folks were heading in to the towns and thus creating a situation where social distancing was compromised..now we see the full effect of that decision

Dates have been set three times before and if the publicans on the radio are representative of publicans in general there seem to be a belief it when it happens attitude.

Being confident and actually presenting the vaccine for regulatory approval
is two vastly different propositions. Hope it pans out but its one of those ill believe it when I see it things tbh.

There is this which is promising

The companies said the vaccine was well tolerated with mild to moderate fever in fewer than 20% of the participants. The companies are continuing to analyze data from the Phase 1 trials in the U.S. and Germany, they said in a statement

The highest case number in awhile announced the day that pub reopening is also announced. I'm skeptical to say the least.

Similarish cases per 100,000 for Kildare, Limerick and Dublin.

Huge number for Louth :eek:

Why should the rest of the country suffer because Dublin is experiencing a surge. Open pubs in all other counties except Dublin

Okay, we'll leave it for a few weeks and see where we are then.

What I state to be facts there are exactly that: cases are up and are hospital admissions. If you don't want to acknowledge basic reality there isn't much point debating.

Are you transposing what happened in March onto what may happen now?

Hospital admissions are rising but we need to factor in the severity of the illness now vs earlier in the year.

You may be right but looking around Europe at some of the areas where cases are exploding it’s clear that they’re not translating into ICU numbers in the same way they did in March/April.

Wasn't there a video "exposing" this "truth" doing the rounds on WhatsApp yesterday?

I'm glad I left all WhatsApp groups in early March. They make Facebook look like a gathering at Harvard or Princeton

It's weaker?

From what i've read, COVID-19 is also often asymptomatic in people with underlying conditions and may cause no complications at all. Yet it is still listed as the cause of death even though the patient had no COVID-19 symptoms.

Today's rolling week total cases 1060 it was back in May we last had over 1000's cases for a rolling week.
