This graph shows that that were 20 deaths yesterday. Is Dr Holohan sure that all have been reported. Or could this be changed to 60 next week when all reports are in?
I didn't see the briefing yesterday but find these reports confusing.
So the deaths are decreasing over the last 10 days.
Eireog, I think you've missed my point. Dr Holohan said that it can be a few days or even longer before a death is notified to them. So the figures on this graph representing the last week are liable to rise. It seems premature to me to plot these recent figures on the graph and to conclude that the figures peaked over a week ago.
I don't see any evidence for this in the figures provided but maybe I missed something?
While it can take up to a month to report a death, the vast majority of deaths are reported within 7 days.
Therefore the data up to 11 April as reported yesterday, is essentially complete.
The death rate in Ireland is not falling. Headline from the Indo:
With the blanket testing now going on in the care homes we should expect a jump in the confirmed numbers. A care home I'm in contact with came back to me saying they have 3 cases identified since Sunday
