Finland, Australia, Vietnam to name a few.

Fans at the Ireland Finland game yesterday.

Cases currently on the rise in Vietnam, who had experience of previous diseases and the govt acted remarkable fast. The Irish govt did none of the bolded parts, which would have helped immensely. So they stopped it from getting in, nothing to do with the actions of own citizens.

"Vietnam enacted measures other countries would take months to move on, bringing in travel restrictions, closely monitoring and eventually closing the border with China and increasing health checks at borders and other vulnerable places.

Schools were closed for the Lunar New Year holiday at the end of January and remained closed until mid-May. A vast and labour intensive contact tracing operation got under way.

"This is a country that has dealt with a lot of outbreaks in the past," says Prof Thwaites, from Sars in 2003 to avian influenza in 2010 and large outbreaks of measles and dengue."

Australia has gone full stasi, with a pregnant woman being dragged out of her house to be arrested for putting up an anti-lockdown facebook post. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-54007824

Finland has had a sharp rise over the past month. From low 20s in September to over 300 in the last week or so.

Maybe add in Dublin hospitals as Dublin has been at level 3 the longest.

It's just a total I have sorry. Not sure where I'd get it broken down by hospital.

We should have seen it as a sign really.

In the 6 weeks or so from beginning of March to mid April, hospitalisations went from 18 to 881.

In the 6 weeks or so from beginning of Sept to mid October, hospitalisations went from 35 to 238.

Passport office lower level staff back in the office. 150+ of them over 3 floors. All the big wigs still at home. Two employees on Reddit saying it is unsafe and there are too many people in the office in unsafe conditions.

Another floor due back in soon too.

Government departments not following government advice... Shock!

Similar post on reddit this afternoon regarding sport. https://www.reddit.com/r/ireland/comments/jaxj1c/follow_on_from_passport_office_league_of_ireland/

Over the summer months it seemed completely reasonable to allow organised sport, but now with the spike in cases it seems criminal to continue to allow it.

"I had a read of the scenes from the passport office and it was very similar to how players in the league of ireland are also being asked to put their own health and the health of their team mates and families at risk.

My own personal experience is that of 30 people sharing dressing rooms/meeting rooms/hotels, on a bus to games, carpools of team mates coming to training from various parts of the city and all because we are seen as elite. The only protection we have to guard against this is a temperature gun which has not flagged a single person so far.

There has been incidences where team mates have had symptoms, but were told not to highlight them because we had a game coming up. The players union have only been concerned with keeping the games and fixture list going, nothing regarding our health even though two separate teams in the league have now had to isolate because of known cases.

Some of us live with vulnerable people and our health is in no way being protected or considered. Cases are rising everywhere yet we're expected to play on.

You can't speak up on this as it would be seen as disruptive and not being a team player. As we are all on year to year contracts, any disruption would mean no contract for next year."

remember nphet said we could have upwards on 1500 cases a day by mid October

It is mid October and its "only" 1,000

uh oh

I am still hopeful it will drop by November though Im fearful of a 3rd wave at Xmas so Im celebrating Christmas Day on November 25th this year.

Indeed it's important.

We had 2km stay at home orders, had cleared the public hospitals and commandeered the private ones.

We are trying to "cater" for the virus and run a health system now.

The target has shrank considerably and is moving.

.

No one remembers that because it didn't happen.

If nothing changes, and cases and hospitalisations grow as they have been for the last few weeks, we could see 1200-1300 cases per day and 400 people in hospital by the end of October

Can you source that claim. The only 1500 cases prediction I can find was for November 7th.

It's in that pdf link you just quoted.

They publish it daily

I don't think it's a good idea to rummage through the hospital and ICU data looking for positives while the cases are rising steadily.

If you find something that looks like stabilisation, well, it probably isn't.

I can't think of a single positive reason why hospital numbers would stabilise naturally right now, but I can think of a few negative ones - for instance what if they've become stricter on who gets admitted for fear of being overwhelmed?

Or discharging them too soon.

The latest Health Service Executive figures show there are 238 patients being treated today, an increase of 24 on last night.

The number of people in intensive care units has fallen slightly to 29.

As of 8pm last night, there were also 100 suspected cases of the virus in hospitals, of which 11 were in ICUs.

How can there be 11 people in icu with suspected covid. Should they not be turned around quickly? Did they all just arrive that day? Or is it a case of anyone who arrives into hospital or icu is a suspect until they’ve been tested?

DellyBelly · 15-10-2020 05:07PM

Massive drop in the numbers in North of Ireland after 1st day of restrictions. Over a thousand yesterday and less than 800 today. Incredible
