    He should have said it's a very concerning crossroads he's at not we. 23 extra ICU beds 9mts into the pandemic. Your fired.

    He has been very poor. Maybe its becuase his lack of health background. Don't trust the man.

    yeah and it was fun times in Lombardy during all that with people terrified to leave the house

    Keep them coming, you're doing great.

    I assume it will wait until the cabinet meeting tomorrow

    Sharp rise in newly opened side accounts where people feel they can say off the wall things they dont want to see connected to their main accounts?

    Definitely

    I'm sure Leo will fill us all in at some stage prior to that.

    Anyone else feel like you'd need to be unemployed to keep up with the pace of this thread? :)

    I'm not sure if I somehow WANTED to have 83 close contacts I could manage it!

    Online training has been handy this week. Next week it will be back to intermittent burst and an evening catch-up

    I like your optimism, but NPHET can and will raise the Level alert, I predict a full lockdown before Christmas, if not nationwide then in Dublin....
    NPHET can't unilaterally raise the alert level, they're not in charge.
    It wasn't too much for the Israeli government.
    Like I say, not unless we see body bags in trucks. I don't know why Israel struggled so badly the second time around, but they're at a very different place to us. For us to get to where Israel are now, we'd have seen cases go from 500/day to 2,500/day over the course of 11 weeks.

    Possible of course, but not likely.

    This is sedate and leisurely. I believe the posting record on one of the versions of this was 21s between posts and something like 50 hours to hit 10K posts!

    I expect it was probably a wedding or some other form of event where someone was able to produce a list of everyone who attended.
    Someone who just went to the pub twice a day with different sets of people wouldn't be able to name all the names.

    Have plans on Saturday to go out for my first pub pints since March. A perfect time for new restrictions to be implemented!:rolleyes:

    Staying in a hotel in Dublin (coming from Wicklow) and will be adhering to the booked tables/substantial meals etc....assume we'll be ok??

    Should be. Even if it's level 3, hotels are allowed to continue serving meals to residents.

    I don't think we can assume anything at the moment. Ok for what?... being 'allowed' to go, not catching the virus?

    The way the circumstances change all the time, who knows?

    Probably alright with traveling In .. but hotel might not honour the booking . I know with kildare lockdown some hotels cancelled bookings for those traveling from kildare.

    Yea fingers crossed. Have a table booked to watch the rugby in a foodie pub, but would have to be level 4 before that would be kibosh-ed I think!

    Opened up too soon, cases building since July, Benni distracted by other things and rolling over on some restrictions and apparently an "undisciplined" public.

    If Dublin did go to level 3 by Saturday there are increased restrictions for pubs and restaurants according to the road map, I have not seen anywhere what these would be yet though.

    at 5% case growth per day we could go from 200 cases per day to about 3,000 cases per day in less than 8 weeks.

    I'm not saying that's going to happen, but it's our current trajectory

    There isn't a whole pile of difference between level 2 and 3, it starts to get serious after that.

    I don't think it's been defined. We may hear more tomorrow when/if they announce it.

    Cause they don't even know themselves. Its still to be decided what they'd be

    Probably depends on the wording, if it's hotels for essential stays only. Think they'd be hard pushed to cancel all those bookings for Dublin in an already stretched hospitality market though! But as you say, they did it in Kildare!!
