    Per HSE I would be counted as a COVID death, we need to get serious here and get a proper medical review as determine if COVID was the cause of death or a second issue.
    Eh, they already do that. COVID deaths, suspected deaths and data on underlying conditions. Who's going to do this "proper" review? Locals are out as they largely agree with how we've counted. We can't get an outside expert in as other countries have their own creative accounting for COVID deaths.

    If it is a backlog, it just has to stop! That figure is going to put the fear of god into some people!! Instead of having the number be around the 200/300 they produce a nice big figure on a Sunday evening to scare the bejaysus out of people!

    Cork rising sharply, that's a worry

    The testing figures last week were more like 350-400+. We're in trouble

    Cork needs to be shut down.

    Fear is what will help control it. When deaths increase certain people's perception of the virus will change

    Need to lockdown Cork now before it gets worse


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 91,847 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    72% under 45, highest number daily cases in a long long time

    But that’s just plain wrong. Do they not care about people’s well-being and mental health?

    Biggest Cork figure for quite a while

    Deep breath now. 7 day, 14 day and cases per 100K are what matter now.

    In fairness, the numbers the last three days would have been touching 400 had cases announced matched the swabs.

    Just a little while ago Donnelly said the situation in Dublin was showing signs of stabilising


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,789 ✭✭✭✭ACitizenErased


    Cork not even close to getting what Donegal got last few days per capita.
    They won’t lock down the whole county for 30-50 cases a day primarily concentrated in the city. Biggest county in the country, won’t be the same restrictions as anywhere else.

    Did you not say there was a possible back log of 180 odd cases? Or did I read it wrong

    And it quite possibly is. There hasn't been any major growth in Dublin cases in the last few days compared to other counties.

    Should start to see this week now if theres been an impact of the restrictions

    What was Cork at - 60 per 100K?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 677 ✭✭✭Pablo Escobar


    It would be ridiculous to lock down the whole county of Cork. The data by electoral area shows that Cork City south west and Cork City north east are where the problems are. Even those don’t have high enough cases yet but it’s clearly spiked. But it might need a targeted approach in the city, but locking down west cork for example which is a 2 and a half hour drive in some places would make no sense.

    Exactly. There is 2-3 LEAs driving cases.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,302 ✭✭✭✭Eod100


    Highest number of cases since 26th April, 5 months. Not ideal https://twitter.com/newschambers/status/1310262547925405698?s=19

    I think they will this week if it doesn't drop significantly

    How could that be policed though?
