Shared living conditions . High density , bigger hospital capacity , more care homes , public transport , more working in cramped factories
Much higher count of frontline staff and carers . Etc etc

In Longford during the week:

Dozens of people are to be prosecuted under the State's Covid-19 legislation after gardai broke up a house party in Longford town last night where at least 70 revellers were in attendance.

The incident, which occurred at a residence in the Palace Crescent area of Longford, took place at around 9:30pm.

Covid-19 latest: More new cases in Longford as transmission of disease remains extremely high

A garda spokesperson said officers arrived at the property after receiving 'countless' telephone calls from concerned local residents.

Upon arrival, officers found several cars, jeeps and other vehicles parked along the footpath.

I had a look at the area on StreetView, looks like an absolute utter kip, what normal area has 4 perfectly good houses destroyed and bordered up by the animals that live there...

I doubt many people are envious of people who buy a Ryanair ticket and travel to Tenerife during a pandemic.

Look, it may not be your cup of tea, or mine - but this statement is clearly wrong. Its pretty evident a lot of people are..

Like saying crime isn't bad once you take Dublin out.

Such a contrarian, you know exactly what the poster is trying to say. Things are improving and not too bad in loads of counties, this is a positive thing.

Of course it is but it would have been better a few weeks ago without Monaghan. Or the time Donegal threw the trend astray. Galway had a spell distorting the trend too.
Every day there is some county that's adrift of the field.

We're improving but a comment like that was nonsensical .

Am I the only one starting to not care about the numbers? We’re stuck in level 5 til at least mid April anyway.

Dublin consistently poor too even taking into account the population there. Cork has gone from one of the worst to one of the best in 6 weeks, I’m not surprised, compliance has always seemed high to me down here .

I think we should all be caring regardless of what level we are in. The less cases means less deaths in the weeks ahead.

Here's a screenshot I took from O'Connell Street webcam on a Saturday afternoon at 1.30pm last April.

I suspect it would be busier on a Saturday afternoon these days but haven't actually checked.

So why are deaths so high?

A full quarter of "today's" deaths were held over from last year. This is a regular occurrence when there is bad news for NPHET, such as hospitalisations and intensive care cases declining.

Hospitalisations also decreased yesterday didn't they. And why did evil NPHET notify of just 23 deaths then. These puppeteers just wanted us to have a nice Friday I guess :rolleyes: Hospitalisations (and deaths) have been decreasing consistently for weeks and the notified deaths fluctuate clearly quite randomly, chips fall where they may , so can you stop with the stupid childish insinuations. You're attaching significance to absolutely nothing and making up stories in your head.

And you need a negative test to fly now. I don't get the hate for people travelling. Is it a fear of them spreading the virus or a jealousy thing.

Answer to the $100 question: It's fear of them spreading the virus.

It's a weird insinuation that we're all jealous of those that are going on holiday, when we could all be doing the same thing if we were so inclined.

Well let's just say I'm 100 times more annoyed with the people having house parties than the people going on a holiday. I would love to go on holiday but I know I can't and have to tough out these restrictions for another few months anyway.

What’s the mobility data like for Carlow Tony?

spookwoman

For the testing i've included the daily inputs and also the csv that is updated daily on the hub with the variance for each day included.

You can go on holiday. ****ing loads of people have been doing it. Endangering other countries with the variant that is common here, and bringing **** knows back with them.

Kids having house parties will slow us down. People going on holiday right now endangers everything. It's a ****ing obscenity.

You can fly to Croatia for example for less than 100 quid right now, which as far as I'm aware, has quite relaxed restrictions at the moment. And could probably stay in a dirt cheap hotel begging for tourists in their decimated industry. So, jealousy? Vast majority of Irish people have no reason not to be able to go abroad other than they either don't want to or are afraid of the social/legal implications. So the money is not the issue and with hundreds of thousands out of employment time off is not the issue either.

Warranted or not ( I personally think it's an overreaction seeing as you must test negative to re-enter), the bitterness clearly stems from a fear of those returning spreading the virus and a hatred towards people who could apparently be so oblivious/uncaring about the situation while 'the rest of us' stay at home..

You're putting me in a potentially dangerous situation here, fits.
I'll be lynched if I start grading counties on their pandemic behavior. Though I came close to posting a graph of which counties went to the pub most often in December, so I'm up for a bit of danger.

The data is a little patchy for Carlow, but all in all you're quite a bit below average.
Must try harder C -

If you think there's a conspiracy, head over to the relevant forum. No need for such commentary here

I’m not surprised tbh. Been in town a few times and it’s quite busy. Carlow one of highest counties for cases at present too.

I once woke up on the floor in a party in Carlow with zero idea how I'd gotten there.
I started in Dublin.

A large proportion of the population of Carlow are students I think. At least it used to be like that.

Two weeks since I crunched the numbers and gives a better idea of the progress each county are making.

People are done with this. There was a very easy sell of everyone stick with it and we'll have more options come March but they've totally blown it.

Literally everyone knows 100 cases a day is unachievable given what goes on in this country, with the cute hoorism and lesser than that cohorts. They've lost the room, there's despair everywhere now and everyone is ignored except the zero covid right on every body live forever types, of course goaded by the opposition. It's distressing.

Treatment of children particularly despicable, and the unions should have no voice here after how they've handled the special needs kids. I've no words for them.

The problem here was indoor socialising, nothing else. Not a walk on a beach 50k from your house. Everything outdoors should be open ffs, for starters
