  1. The health board will tell us 290 have tested positive and 249 have recovered. That is good to know. But it would also be nice if the was to tell us out of the 249 that have recovered, did all of them recover at home? Or at least give us a % of how many had to be hospitalized.

    1. Yes, agree – it would be nice. If we’re anything even close/similar to the national numbers, it’s very few – a fraction of much less than 1% of those infected across all age/health groups ever require hospitalization or even Rx meds – just the typical/normal, over-the-counter flu meds like Tylenol, etc. Obviously that number ascendingly increases and those circumstances change for the older and/or health-compromised groups. Still, even the term “recovered” is a bit of a misnomer, as many of younger age and good health don’t even know they have/had it or recognize it for what it is/was until/unless revealed through a subsequent test for antibodies. Suffice to conclude that something more than 290 have/had it and more than 249 – a higher percentage than 86% of the total infected, whatever those actual numbers are – have recovered.

      1. You probably don’t even go out. You hide behind your phone think you know everything. Comments you make are hideous to this virus. We are children parents grandchildren grandparents people we/I take care of are afraid of U people not protecting yourself for others.
