There is no Dublin lockdown coming.

Only recommendation they look like brining in is changing 6 from 3 households to 6 from 2.

Absolutely no appetite in government for anything else

Of the cases notified today;

• 103 are men / 91 are women

• 61% are under 45 years of age

• 43% are confirmed to be associated with outbreaks or are close contacts of a confirmed case

• 37 cases have been identified as community transmission

• 107 in Dublin, 12 in Waterford, 11 in Limerick, 8 in Wicklow, 7 in Meath, 7 in Kildare, 6 in Laois, 6 in Westmeath, and the remaining 32 cases are located in Cavan, Clare, Donegal, Galway, Kilkenny, Leitrim, Longford, Louth, Mayo, Monaghan, Offaly, Roscommon, Tipperary and Wexford

That's not good. That's 37 people bringing it back into their house. It's fairly impossible to avoid in a house. Although the percentage is consistent as number gets bigger the number of community transmission gets bigger too.

So what about (sorry!!) all those who posted in various Covid threads saying that pubs in NI were already open?

Why in Rathkeal can you just turn up on the day for a test without the need for an appointment yet everywhere else you do?

Will they burn it down again ?Of course it wont be reported in pravda if they do.

Not surprising. There's a big shopping centre in Ballymena high.

What you had in December was probably alot worse, everyone was sick and proper sick from that Flu that was going around

School classes were closed in my area, every kid was proper sick

I'm alot more worried of catching whatever Flu that was than Covid tbh

Lost 6kg with that flu, couldn't train for 2 weeks, fever for day's, coughing for 2 weeks, while most people my age who get Covid don't even have symptoms, give me that over what I had in December :pac:

I've seen a few "it's just a bad flu" posts.

First time I've seen a "the flu is actually worse" post.

Well done lad, really crossing the Rubicon there.

It would be outrageous to lock down Limerick city and the whole county due to the irresponsible behaviour of one particular group in that county. The dogs on the streets know what's happening in Rathkeale but our spineless media are not reporting it. If they need to lock down anywhere, then they just need to lock down Rathkeale, as that will stop the increase in numbers for the county. It is amazing that there is an expectation from us to do the right thing during the pandemic, but when it comes to our ethnic minority, that expectation apparently does not apply.

Fairly substantial sample size although remember that these findings are representative of people aged 18-34 years who had to be hospitalised, not all young people with #COVID19.

However, it's a reminder that severe outcomes can and do occur in young people.
Obesity is appearing to be a massive risk factor in all adult age groups.

So we're getting no new restrictions for Dublin although cases have been doubling every 14 days, and we've yet to see the effects of opening schools and colleges.

This could get out of hand very quickly.

Back in very early March my daughter was admitted to hospital, she is 12 & has a severe underlying health condition. She had oxygen stats in the 70's & tachycardia, the temperature, cough etc. I asked them to test her & they said no as she had not being skiing in Italy. She struggled for 3 weeks with oxygen levels & then got pneumonia. Thankfully she is doing well now but not before several contacts did test positive, including one person who started in a nursing home before she realised. So it can & does affect children.
Separately a friend of mine has developed a heart issue a few months after Covid.

So your daughter wasn't actually reported as positive for covid?

Nope. I got a temperature which last about 5 days also.

Wow

The Govt. are really fooking this up. So Kildare, Laois an Offaly locked down but not Dublin.

Really it means that if Dublin don't face restrictions then they will fail to impose them anywhere else in the future. Why would people listen.

That's mental that they didn't despite the context, really can't believe that.

It begs the question as to why they resisted testing people when it was spreading wildly in the country and lends credence to the possibility that it has infected far more people than official numbers suggests.

Why would people listen in general? For example, banning people standing outside and watching a match as well as keeping pubs closed but allowing weddings of up to 50 people, is one ridiculous aspect of the current restrictions. Lockdown won't be followed and it would have to be a very extreme surge in ICU numbers in order to justify it.

I did not meet their criteria for testing but I stayed the hell away from my mother who has cancer, on oxygen 24/7

Well people might listen because Dublin could end up in a bad state before too long.
