77 more people have died from Covid-19 in Ireland | JOE.ieBREAKING: 77 more deaths from Covid-19 have been confirmed So all of our models, based on inaccurate data, must be wrong that we’ve already seen it peak? Either that or the confusion behind the reporting of deaths, by the HSE, is so bad that no one has a clue who died when.

Census of mortality begins in nursing homesA census of mortality in Ireland's nursing homes has begun as part of measures to assess and deal with the scale of Covid-19 in long-term residential care. Maybe WHO will have the decency to change Corvid19 to CorvidMidApril20. God knows FG could use it. Remember when all it took was a Churchill quote to collectively lose yer shit and forget about the actual virus? We won’t. The only way testing of residents and staff is going to happen is if RTE stands over government to insure they do. Ask how many tests were carried out at the daily briefing along with the number of positive tests. Just test everyone in Dublin so that this can end, it's obvious to see that ignorant Dubs are the reason we are all in isolation, you just can't isolate stupid ffs
