    Is it stated whether he is is just on oxygen, or does it say he on a ventilator?

    A belief in gender identity involves a level of faith as there is nothing tangible to prove its existence which, as something divorced from the physical body, is similar to the idea of a soul. - Colette Colfer

    I'd imagine being on oxygen is not necessarily a bad thing though. A ventilator is a different thing.

    why the F are people going on about not wishing this on him


    he has it, you don't need to wish anything on him

    It implies just oxygen but doesnt specify

    Italy saw this. And now NYC are seeing it.

    There was an Italian doctor who said that 80% of patients who end up on ventilators do not survive. Too far gone. And then there’s the NYC doctor who’s saying that ventilated patients are showing symptoms of “high altitude sickness” - literally being starved of oxygen.

    So 60 percent of people will get this virus.
    85 percent of that 60 percent won't need icu or help with breathing.
    Vast majority of that 60 percent will be very old.
    The majority of that 60 percent will have mild symptoms.

    Has anyone found the seasonal flu stats for this winter in Italy yet?

    A friend of mine in Russia (usual hearsay caveat) said Moscow is stricken with "something else" with very similar symptoms.. I haven't found any links because I didn't look very hard and I don't speak Russian, so I wouldn't stand over it, but it wouldn't surprise me if some sort of cover-up/fudging came to light in the near future.

    What has the seasonal flu got to do with this? We're still arguably at the beginning of the pandemic and while we can only go on information we currently have, comparing it to the seasonal flu does absolutely nothing in determining what it'll be like at the end of the year.

    All those percentages are estimates.

    A tiger in a zoo in NYC has tested positive for coronavirus, and is also displaying symptoms such as a dry cough. 3 other lions are also displaying symptoms of the coronavirus

    Germany are not including underlying health conditions in their official death toll, which is rather dishonest.

    The Robert-Koch-Institute counts all deaths that were Covid-19 positive.
    Some cities however count only the cases of death that resulted from Covid-19, not where other factors (last stage cancer etc) were the cause. They carry out a post-mortem to establish the exact cause of death. The question is, would the patient have survived the Covid-19 infection with no other health issues, or was the infection the reason for the death?
    Every country seems to have their own way of recording Covid-19 deaths.

    Do you think the way of counting the death toll by establishing the real reason for the death is rather dishonest?
    I personally think it’s more accurate...

    Curve successfuly flattened in Norway and Austria who today reported just 73 and 58 new cases each


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,767 ✭✭✭Deeper Blue


    They had to send swabs to Germany. Of course, numbers would look good now.

    It's already been stated numerous times that those results started coming back on Friday.

    Don't let that get in the way of your misery peddling though

    Stats are being fudged. Look at the causes of death and previous ailments each patient had.See post from Hungary where they detailed causes of death.
    The seasonal flu stats for winter 16 in Italy were horrifying 25k dead.What I want to see is flu stats and covid 19 stats separated and being recorded.

    I know someone who got tested after having been in contact with a confirmed case and has been waiting 2 weeks for a result.

    some people are laughing that he got it


    considering it what he has done you can hardly blame them

    Your post appears to be comprised of assertions and false assumptions.

    That would leave them clear of it!

    2000 a day. It sounds like it will continue in tandem with everything else they plan to do.

    Whatsapp again? NEPHT/DoH/HSE or the government are the only sources you should be quoting.
