So if you have a VPN and set location to Italy... ?

What the hell is it with people and toilet roll >:(

Worth remembering that if your local shop is out of bog roll, copies of The Sun can be purchased for 55p/€1.10.

I'd wipe my arse with a €5 note before i'd contribute 55p/€1.10 to that Rag!

You'd be better to buy another newspaper, at least you could read it first.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

Anyone who still downplays our current situation should take 15 minutes and read this excellent report stacked full of facts and data. We are basically in a battle to have a death rate of .5%of infected as opposed to a death rate of 5%. Those are massive numbers if say 1.5m people get the  virus.

Italy has

15113 cases in total
1153 people in Intensive care with the virus
1016 dead

Yesterday almost 200 people with the virus died in Italy.

The goal in Ireland is to keep the number of cases down. Once large numbers of people need intensive care the mortality rate
is appalling.

Surely looking at Italy as a comparison is wrong? Different set of dynamics, culture, numbers, and more importantly they had the worst possible start. Each country will react differently. Hopefully we don't hit Italys rates of cases and deaths

I think every country will be very different. I am not sure if anyone has said it but Flybe going under is probably a bit of a blessing. 25% less flights. (To the 6 anyway)

It's not a blessing for all the people who have kids/rent/ mortgages to pay and get 3 weeks redundancy pay.

Not great for the 95 baggage handlers who have lost there jobs either.

There are no proofs, only opinions.

No it is right to look at it. It is an example of what will happen if we don't do a lock down early in the process - a lot of you were arguing against doing this but at last the sensible calls are being made and this is coming from all the experts looking at countries like China and Italy. Once the health service is overwhelmed people who would have otherwise been saved will instead die due to lack of treatment (respirators).
