SARS CoV-2 coronavirus / Covid-19 (No tin foil hat silliness please)
- Thread starter Don't Kill Bill
- Start date
It’s all well and good Varadkar tweeting out that mass gatherings of over 100 people are banned, but like surely 90 odd people in a small pub is still pretty awful, think they need to shut down pubs full stop here in Ireland. Live cam of Temple Bar was absolutely shocking last night.
I'm not sure if it's possible but making yourself known could be a good idea, particularly if you feel that there is an evolution. Just to let them have you in their system through remote consultation.
Unfortunately, I can't as everyone has raided the chemists for thermometers!
Cheers.
I don't think they gave the power to do it, weirdly enough. Seems they need to enforce some extra powers so they can.
Fecking imbeciles in temple bar last night are probably the same ones panic buying toilet paper.
Burnham, Mayor of Greater Manchester, reflecting on his experience of being Health Secretary and the need for senior government politicians (especially those with no credibility like Matt Hancock) to step back and allow all communications to only come through official government releases and via the Chief Medical Officer and Chief Science Advisor
I agree that articles like Robert Peston’s last night aren’t particularly helpful, although their content is not surprising. There is clear briefing going on.

Stay at home. If you feel your chest tightening and are short of breath, call 111 immediately.
Ireland seems to be high at risk as well!
This is beautiful data. Thank you.Here are the deaths in Europe so far:
And here's a map of Europe showing the number of older people living with their kids.
Household infection is by far the biggest route for the spread of C19 (with up to 75-80%).
With Italy having so many older people living with young families, and Germany having so few, it was always going to hit the former harder (in terms of deaths per confirmed case).
Spain and Poland need to start isolating the 65+ very soon (if they haven't already).
Ireland seems to be high at risk as well!
In theory, yes. If they don’t clear after seven days you should contact NHS 111 online. https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/self-isolation-advice/
If those are your symptoms you should seek immediate medical assistance regardless.
Despite us also have the youngest population in Europe. Seems strange.
Doesn't the data suggests that in Ireland a lot of the high risk population live with younger people which would make isolating from the virus a lot harder? 75-80% Chinese cases are thought to have been transmitted in the home.
Nike, Urban Outfitters and Apple all closing. Wonder if other Brands will follow suit.
A lot of places are closing voluntarily at this point anyway, even Temple Bar.

On Friday I checked in with the senior's home where I volunteer with my dogs to see if it was still ok to come in. Got the all clear almost right away.
By this morning the facility's nurses made the decision to stop admitting all volunteers and family members. Chatting with the coordinator and she said "hopefully we see you before the summer."
Getting concerned this is going to get a whole lot worse.

Germany seem to be keeping the deaths down remarkably well compared to other countries.
I don't believe you are "meant" to leave the house regardless now
Best test ever..
They had to do really. The negative press they've gotten today forced it.

It will.
In Germany the executive is slowly, step for step shutting down public life in all its forms. Except are work when neccessary, basic shopping etc.
Strange feeling. Still feels unreal.
Good thing is that the majority of people orderly stocked up on food and basics (toilet paper is a bit of a problem). So that there will be no need for big long shopping trips in the coming week/s.
Still hoping we are overreacting but the gears are turning and I hope we will be ready when it hits our health system
It even has Canada!
The chest tightening and shortness of breath symptoms will have many fearing they're having a heart attack.
They are shutting the french border too.
You can bounce a coin to the moon off his cheeks.
Lineups?
Sounds harsher as it is. Except are travel to work and other exceptions. If I'm right it is that in both directions. You can drive for work to France or Germany. Including commercial/goods travel.
The comments to that Twitter thread are morbidly funny. Guess I’m going to hell too.
Don't need to they know it's a lie..
The UK's arc is worrying there. It's difficult to see because of how cramped it is around that point but it looks like most countries the arc flips from exponential to logarithmic by now whereas the UK is still exponential.
You are right it sounds harsher. It concerns France, Switzerland and Austria, people living at the border will still be able to move as long as goods but not the rest.
I was telling myself the same thing, it looks like Spain more than the rest.
You can't make that claim without first doing some sort of regression on the data.
Mortality rate is only with confirmed cases and a lot of people is carrying that virus without knowing. The H1N1 final numbers was an estimation as well with confirmed and not confirmed numbers. Also Italy is the country with the most older people in the world so thats normal with any flu a lot of them will die. Would be interesting to know how many people already died in Italy with the seasonal flu, here in the states already more than 10000 died comparing with about 50 with coronavirus.
It seems that in China it's under control but in other countries it's going terribly fast.
But even you and me for example could have that virus with no symptoms
