    I look forward to the episode of Claire Byrne Live where she and Luke O’Neill have to explain ADE to the Irish public (with oversized foam virus models), and what’s been done to their immunity. That one I’d watch.

    New covid cases
    7th January 21926
    6th January 23817
    5th January 17656
    4th January 21302
    3rd January 36057

    Cases in the past 5 reports. 120758

    3rd January 804 in hospital and 93 in ICU
    7th January 936 in hospital and 84 in ICU

    So, with 120758 ‘new cases’ there has been an increase in hospitalisations of 132 = 0.1% of cases
    and with 120758 ‘new cases’ there has been a decrease of 11 in ICU. Less than 0% of cases.

    Work out the early closing reasoning from that.

      The percentage hospitalised is irrelevant if the total number is high. If everyone in the country had Covid-19 at the same time and 3000 of those were hospitalised with 300 in ICU that would be a huge problem regardless of what percentage of cases that represents.
