World-first coronavirus test can detect superspreaders, infectious rate

Also CDC study suggests Covid-19 can be passed in brief interactions:

Previously, the CDC described a close contact as someone who spent 15 minutes or more within six feet of someone who was infectious. Now, the agency says it’s someone who spent a cumulative 15 minutes or more within six feet of someone who was infectious over 24 hours, even if the time isn’t consecutive, according to an agency spokesperson.

I always thought this to be the case, if you have repeated interactions with someone shedding virus, shouldn't matter if it is less than 15 minutes, if it is culminatuve. I think they need to drop this whole 'if you're 2m away from people you don't need to wear a mask' on its head, reiterate the importance of wearing mask in indoor spaces or crowded areas, 2M is simply not enough without it.

ETA: added second link and removed duplicate.

Well to be honest there is nothing in this world that can muffle or silence the hospital fart.

HSE operations report 21/10

As of 8pm, 309 confirmed cases in hospitals.
35 in ICU with 22 of those ventilated
0 ICU deaths last 24 hours
35 available beds

15 down on this morning. Any reduction is helpful in maintaining capacity

How common are muscle aches on their own as a symptom of covid?

Personally I think people should be restricted to one hour in their back gardens per day. There is just too much temptation to do old normal stuff like spark up the bbq and invite people over. People who will inevitably arrive with bags of Galahad or some other intoxicating brew. Fun + Covid19 = Death

100% agree.

There needs to be a help line similar to the welfare fraud line to report these people.

The fact is we need to be a zero covid Ireland by Christmas. If that means fining, or even locking up these Covidiots, then so be it. Social distancing has gone out the window.

These saps don't realize the longer this goes on the more the government has to borrow, it will be their generation paying for it.

They’re in “last hurrah” mode. The test of this will be in the days from now on. If there are still scenes like that, we’ve a problem.

I wonder if we’ll see the pro-virus, anti reality brigade out protesting on Saturday and whether the Gardai will actually do anything if they do?

Polar101 · 22-10-2020 01:56AM

He says he was in the city (Dublin, I assume, since he's posting about Grafton Street) at 6:30pm and it was busy. So was I, and I thought it was really quiet - except for restaurants/pubs which were full. Full as in 15 people outdoors.

I'm just saying if you record a video at what is arguably one of the busiest spots in the country, there's going to be people (and buskers). If they can record a similar video from tomorrow on, then there's some work available for the Gardai.

The Chinese have the right idea. Detention and Re-education will be the only solution when dealing with the uncooperatives going forward...

No they don’t have the right idea. They’re an authoritarian state with no concept of human rights.

If covid management though social distancing works in Ireland it will be primarily be by people voluntarily cooperating to get through it and making it work because they want to and because they care, not because they’re being threatened by an all powerful state that will force them into submission.

This is a depressing and frightening enough mess as it is, without going down that road!

What do you have to do to be sacked in the public sector or from the HSE?

And wasn't he only mocking the British track and trace system not so long ago, too?
