Around 90 more people died today. 2500 people died in August in Ireland. Less than 10 were Covid related.

And all of these illnesses have been and are being TREATED in hospitals all over the country . Covid does not have any treatment as such and is a threat to everybody everyday .

2nd day now where the number in hosptial has stayed very stable. Increase to 50 from 48 yesterday can be seen through the hosptials that recorded cases today, 3 cases, 1 each in Mater, Tullamore and Navan

You do know more than half the cases today were from the weekend.

They still count as cases you do know that right?

Not only that, we were one of the lowest at one point! How did we mess it up so bad?

Travel?

Letting 1000s of flights in from hugely infected countries is my guess.

I dont see the point of locking down Dublin when Dublin airport is open.

What exactly are people looking for from a Dublin lockdown? I mean no travel outside of it hardly would solve the issue.

Do people want schools shut in Dublin only, depriving kids of proper education?
Do they want restaurants closed, despite next to no evidence of it being a source of spread?
Do they want household numbers reduced further - it's already at six?
Do they want more targeted areas in Dublin to be locked down instead - easier to manage? Why punish Skerries if the issue's in Tallaght?

What's the proposed plan?

The suggestion is mostly by people who can’t afford to live in Dublin and/or had to move home.

Restrict Dublin to keep virus from spreading across rest of country.

Keep schools open low risk and children have suffered enough- six months off school.

Restaurants takeaway only.

No pubs open.

Nobody in your house other your own family.

Wait until numbers drop.

Vaccine comes. Go back to normal.

Simple.

Your point is lost on me. If Covid has no treatment then over 99% of people are surviving it without treatment.

Dublin should have been locked down days ago but FFG wouldn't have the balls.

There's no need to lock down all of Dublin ffs. It's a very different and polarised city in parts.

The problem areas are obvious, North Central and West - 2 areas with wider social problems and higher rates of non compliance.

There are some people who are jizzing in their pants at the thought of a full Dublin lockdown because of some idiotic Dublin V Country grudge in their stupid narrow minded little heads.

I'm from the country BTW but living in Dublin North Central.

The other day I asked if any of you knew of any good public prediction models to mess around with.
None of you obliged, so what follows is your own fault. I made my own.

It's very rudimentary, as is my knowhow with Python. Anyways all this shows is the current trajectory of the virus on a logarithmic scale.
I chucked in the trend-lines by hand so I'm open to correction on them, but if they're off they're not off by a lot and so the general gist will remain the same - we're in trouble.

I wouldn't use this to make any sort of accurate prediction of course, but if we continue at our current rate of doubling we'll find ourselves in hot water before too long.
And of course the data here is yet to show the impact of opening schools, colleges and pubs. I'd expect the doubling time to go down, but couldn't possibly guess by how much.

What does python say about the icu trend? Compare say when we had 10, 50, 80 and 100 cases 7 day average

Yep, every day, the same post. It’s clearly designed to scare people, it gets old pretty quickly.

Great news to see the hospital admissions stabilise though.

stephenjmcd · 08-09-2020 09:58PM

So there's no ambiguity,
Covid patients in hosptial today, 50. Increase of 2.
Includes 6 in ICU, no change here.

Increase in hosptials today can be pointed to the 3 cases reported in hosptials, 1 each in Mater, Navan, Tullamore.

Relatively stable day across the hosptials

I don’t think people here fully understand how enormous the task would be to lockdown Dublin.

We have a population of well over 1M. But way more people than that enter the county every day. Huge parts of Leinster all work in Dublin. Do we let those people in to work?

What about schools? Do we close them all?

How about the airport? Do we close it and redirect all flights elsewhere?

Do we close all retail, cinemas, restaurants and keep pubs closed? Are those areas driving numbers?

What about the hospitals? Should we insist people outside Dublin stay away from those hospitals including the maternity hospitals?

Surely all the above would result in a huge amount of pup payments?

It’s easy to say lockdown Dublin. More complex when you consider how big, populated and busy it is.

I predict that zero of the suspected cases will turn into confirmed cases tomorrow. I’ll post an update then.
