@RobOHanrahan Including wastewater surveillance report up to week 22 (5th Jun). The normalised sars-cov-2 levels are falling. There's a 1 to 2 week lag in hospitalisations, so doesn't seem cases are rising. Could it be waning vs severe infection or variant with higher CHR? @WimGMeijer

Sharp rise is likely indicative of widespread virus in the community, not being picked up by testing. Previous recent figures indicate half of Covid cases in hospital are 'incidental' infections; someone being admitted for a different reason and subsequently testing positive.

Sharp rise in the overall number of people in hospital with #Covid19 in Ireland in the last week. 453 people in hospital with the virus here this morning, up from 256 the same day last week, a rise of 77%. ICU figures remain relatively stable. @VirginMediaNews

@andrewflood Is any of this showing up in the wastewater surveillance system? Some good reports now on normalised sars-cov-2 levels @WimGMeijer @Mark_Coughlan To mitigate risk, it's important for my family to know as elderly parent about to be discharged and receiving joint family care.

Lots of indicators suggesting we are now starting 6th #Covid19Ireland wave including here the increase in PCR swab positivity over the last week which also saw an increase every day in 3 day positive swab numbers over same 3 days the previous week. /1

Can anyone explain? 1. The rise in Ireland's case rate fatality. 2. Why are we now a mirror copy of the UK, same peaks and troughs. We made a big deal of falling CFRs why are we now ignoring as they rise? @CcoHse

Weekly hospitalisations in 75-84 y/o, highest ever in entire pandemic, peaked 29th March 2022. It was a local peak for other groups, especially high in the 55+ and 0-4's. Good to know if: Due to covid or "with" covid + other respiratory illness, both via lifting mask mandates?

@andrewflood I wonder what's happening with large recent increases in case fatality rate in Ireland & UK - OWID. Could this be BA4, BA5 - with 7 fold drop in neutralising antibodies vs BA1? Not really keeping up with recent developments, could be other explanations, interested in views.

Interestingly vaccination seems to offer a much higher level of protection than prior infection when it comes to the emerging BA.4 / BA.5 waves. So good news for 95% if adults in Ireland & get a move on for that other 5%
Alex Sigal@sigallab

The situation was better in the vaccinated breakthrough cases. Not only was the fold-drop less, but also the original BA.1 elicited immunity was more. This combined to a 5-fold higher BA.4/BA.5 neutralization capacity in vaccinated (green) versus unvaccinated (purple):

@andrewflood There's been a lot of improvements to the wastewater surveillance report. @WimGMeijer @Mark_Coughlan Unfortunately, to me, it looks like levels of sars-cov-2 are higher than ever up to week 14. Wonder why levels aren't falling more given the huge # of prior ¤ infections?

Interesting #Covid19Ireland seroprevalence study showing by early 2022 almost every adult (98.5%) in Ireland had antibodies based off testing blood donations. This was mostly (80%) thanks to vaccination with about 20% infected /1

@statsepi Wastewater surveillance, bugbear of mine, used to be published weekly, now only w10, w5 & wk 49 last year. Data not available 3 of our most dangerous weeks & overall not granular, img 1. Img 2, levels lower than pre Nov, clearly not true. 3/Hugh variation in other regions.

@statsepi What about surveillance? We need an ONS style sampling system to calculate sars-cov-2 infection prevalence. We also need to do some work on our wastewater surveillance to make it timely & fit for purpose; hasn't that already been funded, maybe privatise, seriously lacking?
