As of this morning, the HSE says that 940 people are receiving treatment for the coronavirus in hospital, a drop of 80 on yesterday's figure.
There are currently 83 patients being cared for in intensive care units.
Hope that is true?On Friday, the HSE chief said there are "positive indications" Ireland has reached the peak of the Omicron wave.
I can see people not going for the test. My niece's (age 7 & 5) were tested (close contact) and the test was traumatic for them. The tester wasn't gentle and made them both cry. Their mother has decided no more tests for them as a result.The Continental Op wrote: ↑Fri Jan 14, 2022 5:33 pm Covid-19: 17,065 new confirmed cases, 1,023 in hospital and 83 in ICU
Numbers going down but is that just testing isn't up to it and people are now relying on antigen tests and the antigen test portal has only just opened today?
What I found most disturbing was the lack of any empathy or regret on the face of that adult during and after she shoved that thing deep.isha wrote: ↑Sat Jan 15, 2022 4:25 pm There is a tweet doing the rounds which I am going to link under a spoiler with a warning, of a small child getting a test he clearly does not want and that hurts him. It is one of the most disturbing things I have seen in a while. In Bavaria - which is supposedly where the video is from though I am doubtful - it is mandatory that children in kindergarten have 3 tests per week if they want to keep attending. I don't know about others but I would barely trust a properly qualified nurse to be able to insert those nasal swabs properly must less random kindergarten teachers and even parents.
The tweet is under the spoiler - it is just too upsetting for open view.
SPOILER:
Graph showing countries like Ireland passing Omicron peak - but we sure did well in terms of cases compared to others.

I suspect you're right, my wife just went for a PCR as she has symptoms, and a kid in my daughter's "pod" tested positive.The Continental Op wrote: ↑Mon Jan 24, 2022 5:49 pm https://www.breakingnews.ie/ireland/cov ... 47848.html
Thats still a lot of cases particularly given that I believe there's a lot of Omicron apathy so I would guess those numbers are a gross underestimate.
I know several people who tested positive on a home antigen in the last week that aren't bothering to go for a PCR (and some that aren't even isolating!).The Continental Op wrote: ↑Mon Jan 24, 2022 5:49 pm Thats still a lot of cases particularly given that I believe there's a lot of Omicron apathy so I would guess those numbers are a gross underestimate.

As of 8am today, 824 Covid-19 patients are hospitalised and there 79 in ICU.
My understanding is that these are not cases of Covid-19, but positive results from testing implying infection by the virus.A further 10,414 cases of Covid-19 have been confirmed this evening by the Department of Health.
