70 cases that have been identified and notified. It just seems a lot to me in one site (even if there are 5,000 builders there).Very quick to jump in and call this a disgrace or terrible with little or no knowledge or understanding of the situation there!
That site hasn't closed its deemed essential.70 cases that have been identified and notified. It just seems a lot to me in one site (even if there are 5,000 builders there).
Construction only reopened in the last week or two or three?
But, maybe they’ve legitimate reasons for the outbreak.
Just like my neighbours extensionThat site hasn't closed its deemed essential.
Eh no, not like your neighbours extension. Your neighbours extension isn't going to create hundreds of jobs and generate millions in tax revenue for the people of Ireland... or do you live beside a big factory in Leixlip?Just like my neighbours extension
The figure has been revised upwards to 85 and Intel will not be updating the figure any further.
Intel says it is ‘not providing an update’ on number of Covid-19 infections after outbreak
Intel says it will not be providing an update on how many workers on its construction site in Co Kildare have now tested positive for Covid-19 “at this time”.www.independent.ie
All meat factories all indoor though. Transmission rates are considerably lower outdoors.

You haven't seen that site have you?

How can that be?
So you have just continued to make incorrect assumption after incorrect assumption on this story.No, not the one in County Kildare. I’ve been to the one in Santa Clara (California) though.
Alas, I left my microelectronics career in the last century in favour of software engineering.
So you have just continued to make incorrect assumption after incorrect assumption on this story.
To go back to my original question, how can the infection rate on an outdoor site be so high?
85 cases reported out of 5,000 builders.
@Leo has pointed out that this rate is equivalent to outbreaks in meat factories. However, the latter are indoor.
Is Intel applying a Moore’s Law to Covid transmission?
So you have just continued to make incorrect assumption after incorrect assumption on this story.
Perhaps because the vast majority of work at the moment is indoors?
What assumptions have I made?
