Have we come across this ? 'Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is a viral disease of cats caused by certain strains of a virus called the feline coronavirus"

Apparently they treat cats with the new drug they are using to treat covid-19

So if someone thinks they have symptons of the virus what is the present procedure advised?

Let’s say we do go in to lockdown.

How does it work with getting your provisions from a shop.

How is it decided who goes to the shop and when etc

It won't be that ordered. There'll be gardai outside each supermarket and everyone will stand a safe distance apart in a queue in the car park until they're ushered in.

Thanks I was diagnosed with an incurable cancer and last Halloween I had my last treatment. My birthday falls 2 days before the first anniversary of my treatment ending and I was hoping to be able to celebrate it in some way. My cancer will come back and I hope not while this virus is still doing the rounds.

Sorry!
The comment by the other poster pathetic. Hope thing's work out for you!

I find it really hard to believe that Trump tested negative.

It’s not even alcos and drunks.

You can guarantee most of them are entitled pricks who don’t like being told by the gubberment what they can and can’t do.

‘If I want a pint I’ll go have a pint’ etc.

No self respecting drinker would go near those pubs anyway.

This is a good visual of how a virus spreads in the community and what measure work

I wonder are these the three cases in the 'Northwest'? I wouldn't normally describe Cavan that way but I don't know what other category you'd put it in...

It is classed as the northwest. Its high time we knew exactly where these cases are.

Sorry to hear that. I do apologise for what I said, didnt mean for it to cause upset. Just annoyed myself about people on social media out celebrating ect when there are people in hospitals with this disease. Shouldnt have allowed that to come across in what I was saying

Apology accepted and if my birthday was in the next 2-4 months I would not have posted what I did. I want something to look forward to later in the year. I am seeing my Haemotologist on Thursday week for my first post treatment checkup and I hope its good news.

No I have a compromised immune system thanks to my incurable cancer and if I catch Covid I will be in ICU.

Wishing you a happy birthday, and all the best for the future.

THE DON.

The good news is, he has been so bad at taking the necessary measures, he's still likely to get it and it'll probably kill him!

Call your doctor, else HSE/HSELive online else 112/999 as a last measure - but the doc is the first port of call

Singapore is a truly exceptional case, they have digitized data on virtually everything.

Contact your GP by phone to notify them and self isolate immediately.

Don't go to A & E......await instructions from your GP,

CDC and WHO need to be re-evaluated in terms of their supposed authoritative competence. They are almost a a liability.

CDC officials have said while it's clear asymptomatic spread does happen, it doesn’t appear to be the driver of the outbreak. CDC website says asymptomatic transmission "is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads."

But Dr. Ciesek asks: “Why are they so sure of this?"

There was also 75000 in Old Trafford and 60000 in Anfield this week, no complaints over that

There were a lot more Irish in Cheltenham over a 4 day festival than at Anfield or Old Trafford.

Football cancelled games from Thursday. But British horseracing wouldn't cancel it's Thursday and Friday races.

Cheltenham went ahead because of money and a privileged clique. It will be difficult to close pubs, though it will be done, as they are a powerful lobby.

Much easier to close schools.

Doesn't matter, I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

If he has it that's it, but if he's hiding it he is infecting others. Expect a quarantine in the White House soon "as a precaution", and Pence will take the reins, and suffer the fallout too. Why he doesn't just resign now (Pence I mean), is beyond me.

And as for the nodding donkeys behind Trump at pressers, Scarleh for ya.

Those clips this evening ruined it for the pubs.

Call you local GP or Southdoc or has the HSE and/or Dept of Health an emergency 24 hour free phone contact?

Who knows. He took the test at the same time his doctor tweeted he didn't need one which seems odd. Anyway it isn't something I would wish on anyone. The US is likely in a lot of trouble though.

Was this the same doctor who says he tested negative? I am pretty sure he has moved on from doctor that allowed him to write his own medical report at least.

Temple Bar right now. Shut the bloody pubs.
