Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

Does the Irish lockdown include courts?

Haven't heard, but I don't think it can - anything that can be put off will be, but there will be at least some serious crimes (and covid-19 issues) that will require some firm of hearing.

So Italy has 900 deaths in 1 day despite 2 weeks of lockdowns?

Definitive proof that China has been fiddling their books / telling half truths.

Tony Houlihan excellent again. Hope to God this works to somehow curb this.

ICU occupation has gone up by 5 times in a very short time.

Even the extra capacity being made available will not cope if this rate continues. That is the main driver behind tonight.

I would even take Brian Moore and the Big Match re runs
Anybody remember the Baseball ground in January

Just looked on Amazon, I bought this in 2009. £65 new now !

Saw earlier that Spain had thrown out 9000 Chinese testing kits as they were only accurate 30% of the time.

Well d'uh! Wouldn't be surprised if the number of deaths they've reported is about 10% of the actual number.

With regards to the situation here in Ireland.The country has been put on lockdown, for two weeks from midnight tonight.Community transmitions here are now at 51%.It's now out of control in the USA, while there is still people dying by the hundreds in Italy.I don't know how this will pan out, will my friends and family still be alive at the end of this.But i do know this is a grave situation, and i fear it's going to get a hell of a lot worse, before it gets better.

Worrying times indeed for us all.I think today was the day, where it finally hit home to me that this country, is in serious trouble.But i think the whole world is in trouble really.These are scary times, but i wish everyone here all the best, and hopefully the vast majority of us, will come through this period still alive, and with our family and friends still alive and well.Im pretty scared tbh, but we're all in the same boat here.

We'll beat it lad.

This time next year we'll all be moaning about Siggurdsson hiding on the pitch doing his best Neville finger pointing impression.

Very small data size so will need a much expanded trial but plasma has historically been successful in previous viruses such as the Spanish flu so cross fingers it will again

High streets might be dead, but the industrial estates, buildings sites etc are still operating as normal. I feel it’s gotta be all or nothing with this or we are well and truly screwed.
