Nom de plume Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 (edited) With or from Covid? Underlying health conditions or serious illness? Vaccinated or not vaccinated? Ages of the deceased? Very sad but please, can we have some perspective? I view the pandemic as ‘serious’ but I want to be pragmatic & need information or data to form a reasoned opinion.

Was only 2 yesterday? haven’t seen any news to suggest their has been 2 new deaths? I've just seen the announcement about the two people who have passed away. So the good news regarding cases is very much tempered by that sad news. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they tell me (us) a 54 year old vaccinated male who competes in fell runs & has no underlying health conditions has died of Covid, I start to think ... fuck me, this shit is the real deal.

From Gov Website Death of two patients from COVID-19 – 28 March 2021 Today Two patients at Noble’s Hospital have died from COVID-19. It takes the total number of people who have lost their lives while suffering from the virus on the Island to 29. Chief Minister, Howard Quayle MHK, said: “My thoughts – and I am sure those of everyone across our Island – are with the families and loved ones at this most difficult of times.” “We must do all we can to stamp out this virus. I would reiterate my plea for everyone to stay at home as much as possible to help save lives.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure most of us have nothing but thoughts for the family and friends of those who have passed.

So the good news regarding cases is very much tempered by that sad news. At the time you posted and I replied there hadn’t been any official announcement other than the dashboard data being updated at 4pm. I did see another site go into happy clappy mode because of the low case figures particularly focusing on the reduced hospital figure/reduced ICU count. I was hoping it was perhaps an admin error, but seeing the number of deaths jump from 2 to 4 captured my attention more than any of the other figures. That’s not criticism towards yourself, I think the government should have made the announcement earlier and the dashboard shouldn’t be updated without an official announcement being published first. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same. Fairly relaxed about it here and wondering why still the restrictions. Publish detail like above and I will happily change my view and do everything I can to make others do the same. Publish it was someone who was 94 and 32 stone and I will maintain my current stance. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
