It’s 7 more so a total of 13.

The only mention the location of one of the 7 in cork.

Any news where there others are on Planet Earth?

No I don’t think so. First and second cases were in “the east”, then family of 4 yesterday, plus 7 today.

Lets hope this time the HSE stop playing silly buggers and give location's of the 7 new cases

Paddy's day surely needs to be postponed now , there's probably a few thousand Italian fans due to arrive this weekend for all we know .

The stupid thing about everything that's happening here is it was all predicted on these threads a week ago here but yet the government officials kept going on that there's nothing to worry about .

Do you want the current incomptent lot and Simon Harris to continue their disastrous handling of this?

Don't think anyone else wants to be involved in this either. Seem to be happy to let the caretakers deal with it don't you think?

Has Louise O'Reilly (the Health spokesperson in SF) made a statement yet? She seems to have been able to spout on every outlet up to now. But silence at the minute.

I only say that because SF have positioned themselves as the best deal for all of us now.

But Mary L is in self isolation so she knows the score, and fair dues to her for putting her family first. We would all do this.

But hey Louise, any statement!

The HSE should say where these new cases are located, ballpark even.

If ye can remember, were there any sort of world events (like say china shutting down half the country) that got ye more than just the numbers?

If it was just the numbers here I'd be way less certain it's a serious problem.

I don't, to be honest. I just remember seeing articles about the death rate and being sure we were in serious bother.

I don't think anyone would be particularly alarmed at this news if it wasn't for the complete ineptitude that is currently going on in terms of stopping it from getting out of control. The thing that is scary is I just don't trust this country to handle this well and feels like we could let this become a runaway train.

Looks like it’s too late, it’s out of control. There was probably not much we could have done to stop it, but to not try is unforgivable.

Yes that is pretty obvious (I have actually mentioned it in previous posts) and no-one said wearing a mask alone is providing 100% protection.

But it doesn't make them useless by any stretch of imagination, and they greatly reduce the chances of infection.

But how as you say it still has ways to get in so how does the mask actually help. Also most who say wear masks don't mention does and it will create a false sense of security.

It will be widespread in a week or two. Panicking won't change things.

The CUH patient was treated in hospital last week and discharged, then readmitted again recently and tested positive. Not good at all, tracing becoming more difficult.

Isn't that standard for that type of scenario anyway?

He's meant to have returned from tenerife. Just going on what I'm hearing from cork, he's not the only case either.
