No issue with numbers, perfectly normal for our population , problem is we have the worst health system and ICU capacity in Europe and the western world
Its schools but as no contact tracing we will be told its community transmission🙄 NormaFoleyTD1 CMOIreland paulreiddublin
Of course not. Actually sourcing the outbreaks is considered an academic exercise by our experts.
All those cases and how many deaths? How many deaths of perfectly healthy people? No! No answer. Ridiculous.
If you have abandoned contact tracing for 20% of the population (the 20% that are unvaccinated, unmasked, and have about 30 close contacts every day), then yeh, you are going to lose track fairly quickly.
I was asked by HSE where I thought my son (6) got it. School, maybe? No, doesn't count. After-school club? Doesn't count. Playdate? Aha! Did his friend stay overnight? No? Doesn't count. We'll put that down as 'community transmission' so. 🙄
I don’t get it sorry. I’m seriously perplexed. Did all our vaccine immunity just magically vanish one random night during November or have the vaccines been completely useless this whole time and their limitations are now finally being exposed during this cold & flu season.
I tested positive & was never asked where I thought I had got it. How do they know these numbers? 🤔
They make up the numbers to fit their agenda
That would be schools.
