Here are some very positive new charts about Ireland’s COVID progress presented by Prof Philip Nolan at Thursday’s COVID briefing. The number of deaths in Ireland speaks for itself. It is clearly on a downward trend.

#COVID19ireland #COVID #COVID19 #CoronavirusIreland Even more confirmation of a downward trend in Irish COVID-19 deaths. The five-day moving average of the daily growth rate in deaths is close to zero. The picture itself says more than words can.

The Chief medical Officer Dr Tony Holohan produced a new graph this evening which told a different story about the number of daily #COVID-19 deaths in Ireland. This is it. #COVID19 #COVIDIRELAND. He explained that what NPHET reports to us on a daily basis is the number of deaths "notified" to them on that day rather than the numbers who actually died on that day. It can take a few days or even longer before any death is actually notified to them.
