As of 22nd March Dublin had by far the highest incidence of confirmed cases with a rate of 40 per 100,000. Far ahead of Westmeath with 24 and Cork with 23. Many counties in single figures. Are higher rates to be expected in cities and built-up areas?
Tonight's sad announcement of the ninth death is in the East again, where all deaths have occurred. Is this noteworthy?
Not including Northern Ireland in the above where, despite much lower numbers of confirmed cases than here, there have now been seven deaths.
With all the uncertainty over the testing regimes and reliability of the number of confirmed cases, are the numbers of deaths going to increasingly become the best indicator of infection rates? I remember seeing this mentioned on another thread.
Do we have a much bigger concentration of Covid 19 in the East and North of the island?
