Cork is not among the top 4 highest incidence counties which is good news.
Limerick, Offaly, Donegal and Dublin listed as the top 4.
700 cases in Limerick in the last 14 days as I referred to in my previous posts. Next highest isn't even close, something like 300 in Donegal.

and attributed to indoor gatherings.

The opposite of indoor gatherings is outdoor.

Which is something that is being vilified constantly at the moment.

You're grand. I'll pass.

That absolute clown. And organised in the city when I'm due my jab as well.

I'm another one of those scratching heads about how those locations are decided. I will drive past PUC , which I can walk to, to go into the city hall. Not a big deal, just weird that they are sending people in town out to PUC, and sending people from ballintemple into the city hall.

They really must be struggling for numbers if they are asking people who think they are a pack of misinformed fncktards to attend.

As of midnight, Thursday 3 June, we are reporting
529* confirmed cases of #COVID19.

28 in ICU. 86 in hospital.

*Daily case numbers may change due to future data review, validation and update.

Edit: - This is the highest number of daily cases reported since Thursday, May 20 when there were 524 new infections.

lawrencesummers · 04-06-2021 5:58pm

Was it 34 in ICU yesterday?

Cases have long gone out the window as being the most important statistic, it’s not a good indicator that there is an increase but to only look at cases isn’t a clear picture.

corkie · 04-06-2021 6:14pm

30 in ICU yesterday.

Outbreak in Limerick inflating the case numbers.

Didn't post Limerick info here as not relevant to thread. Posted on other thread.

Cases is only info being reported.

Ideally would be good to have daily vacation numbers.

That’s a great relief for you I’m sure . I’m trying to work out the exact date for my Pfizer jab 2 - City Hall-. Was your second dose exactly 30 days after your first ?

Over 900 cases in 2 weeks for Limerick, I would worry as it near us and maybe visiting Limerick folks

I think we are still doing well here low numbers even if we don't know for sure

I did hear CUH have lots of trolley patients not sure how many in with Covid in Covid ward

Mine was delayed from the one month to 6 weeks by GP as I was on antibiotics

It was 4 weeks from 1st dose for 2nd dose for Pfizer with my GP, the card had 2nd date on it, has your card any date?

About these new parklets... are they for customer use only, or are they for general public use?

4/6 CUH 11 ~ Mercy 16

I was about to say that covid patients, would need to be isolated so wouldn't be in corridors on trolleys.
Edit:- And that site also gives numbers in wards.

Surely for general public use.

I past the new parklet in ballincollig earlier. It really is a strange set up! Acres of open plaza with zero places to sit and then this small wooden thing squeezed into a space by the traffic!

Save them for small city streets...

I haven't noticed this but it's inevitable, really.
There was always going to be a lot of drinking on the streets this summer and we have no public toilets.

05-06-2021 11:39am

The vast majority of takeaway drinks and cans consumed on the street end up being urine on the adjacent streets.

whisky_galore · 05-06-2021 2:40pm

With a few fine days theres going to be some bang of piss off the city, the great and the good who okayed takeaway pints wont have thought what goes in must come out somewhere.

cadaliac · 05-06-2021 2:45pm

It's a conundrum really - if you provide porta-loos are you giving the green flag for on street piss ups ?
If you don't provide them - you haven't thought it through, or care about the people?

Whether they provide them or not, they (council) cannot win.

I personally think they should provide them - it's not exactly a secret that you can get take away pints in the city and there is a festival atmosphere.

People will street drink, loo or no loo. Pubs open to takeaways or closed completely.

One of the few things that'll drive them off the streets is heavy rain.
