I can't remember the last time I saw someone without a mask in a shop. Mask wearing is not a problem.

I was in a shop for 3 mins today and forgot to put my mask on. Sorry.

Oh ban them from the pubs too, or maybe they can have a mineral and a pack of king crisps

Nobody is ruining lives, setbacks a plenty yes, such is covid.

The whole country are not wearing masks. Most yes. Compliance should be higher though. I’m just back from shopping and saw quite evidently... the whole country are NOT wearing masks. Restriction of allowing non mask wearers into most public controllable environments should and needs to be rigorously enforced... ie. Shops / shopping centers.

Lives have certainly been ruined.

It's over a month now since I last saw someone not wearing a mask in a shop.

Yes, alienate them even more. That'll sort it.

Interesting age stratified comparison of fatality between covid and flu.

At most ages it's a little bit more serious.

They innovated a new youth friendly font. It's now glow in he dark so you can find your can if you are in a field. Same piss in the can though :pac:

Actually you might want to, if trying to make the analogy, which as you said probably sounded good in your head.

This is based solely on reported cases in Ireland in September

Flu is more serious for under 5's. Close creches and pre schools during winter. Keep old people away from their grand children in case the grandparents give them flu.

1200 kids are hospitalised from flu each year in Ireland.

Most people fall in one of two columns. Polarization, denialism, and anti-science vs reality.

Except the emerging studies are showing even those with no symptoms (under age of 40) have gone on to develop long term issues with heart, respiratory system, fatigue etc. Might not kill you, but certainly makes your quality of life degrade.

Few odd cases as it happens with nearly every disease. Nothing even remotely scary.

It's about a half hour since I was in a shop and saw someone not wearing a mask.

Just because you may not have seen it, doesn't mean it isn't happening. Majority are.

Most people are mostly on the right column, but not holding dogmatically to every statement on that side does not automatically place you on the left. Anyone here in March who suggested the real ifr might be less than 1% was lumped in with the denialists. Everything is not a black and white answer

I fear to even imagine how gullible you are to the government's nonsensical bull**** if you truly believe they are doing this for "physical health."

If that was truly their number one priority, they'd do a proper Chinese-style lockdown, all rights be damned and get rid of the virus. China has no more domestic cases and life is completely back to normal there.

Now tell me what stopped them from doing that, and explain how whatever it was that stopped them supersedes the "protect life at all costs" narrative you think this government is pushing?

The schools are open full swing spreading around the virus. I guess "physical health" doesn't necessitate them closing? Angry parents more important than "physical health" ?

I agree.. government measures were too limp wristed but in terms of enforcment...

Id like to see garda patrols augmented by the army quite frankly... a van with three gardai and a couple of army might just focus minds..

Of course. I read the question as suggesting it wasn’t serious, but it could be read as suggesting the death rates are lower because of measures taken which is of course true. Uncontrolled you would expect the deaths in most areas to trend towards 0.3-0.5% of the population

Cork's 14 day incidence rate (per 100k) is now 71.47 with today's included.

Lockdown thresholds for reference:

6th August: Laois (69.7), Offaly (80.8), Kildare (82.2)
16th September: Dublin 114.2
24th September: Donegal 148.2

I am hoping cases start to decrease

Right.

But now imagine your mother and millions (guess) of others around the globe acquired a prolonged illness at roughly the same time.

We don't have the first clue about the world's seroprevalence, but I think it's safe to assume that there's still plenty of scope for this big problem to become much bigger.

Yeah but aren't we sometimes imagining too much?

Thank you. Just read the press release. It’s very encouraging, 99% reduction in viral load for the patients with highest viral load.

That's a pathetic retort at best. Will you really defend those drunken, fornicating louts? Gathering like that in the middle of a pandemic. Spreading a killer virus to God knows who? It's a national disgrace I think, I've had enough
