    Plague Tapes #116

    Sunday morning – it was when I felt inspried to record the music part, after watching the Velvet Underground documentary by Todd Haynes.  The real birth of rock, or punk rock, definitely not the flowers in your hair clear shakra type.  Such a great sound – in the chaos the driving rhythms,  you better run run run…Later listen out of Howlin’ Wolf complain about someboby being in his home, isn’t that what the plague is all about, this invading sickness into our lives.

    News  Andrew is here to tell us about the new super villain on the plague scene, Omicron.  Just as you thought life couldn’t get any more like a dystopian science fiction novel, along comes Omicron.  We think it’s here, 11 possible cases here, 9 in Scotland yesterday, and we kind of already know that we have stong supicions that it is already here.  The Netherlands found it on the 23rd.  We learn about how Variants come about, and there have been 1500 lineages since the original Sars Cov-2.

    Everything else contines on like before,  cases bumping along at 4,000, and 14% positivity, and ICU with 122 in there as of yesterday.  The pattern remains the same in terms of 60% of people in there being non-vaccinated. We have a one press conference -> from the HSE on Thursdays and after that we hear nothing from NPHET.

      

    Love & Rage,

    Dr. Groove

    Plague Tapes #115

    On a dark evening in November, Dr. Groove puts together some mellow tunes – and we go on a musical journey.  It ends, not so mellow and with the news. 

    News  Andrew is here to inform us about hitting capacity in testing, and how it was all so so predicatable, but that we might be at a peak.  We cannot know that with any certainty, because of the reaching capacity around testing, and with 680 people in the hosptials with Covid, and 132 in ICU, and with cases hitting 5,900 there recently, we are not in a position to tell.  Incidence is 1269 per 100,000 – which has us 10th highest in Europe.  All this and more is discussed as we try and guess our whereabouts on the curve.   

    Love & Rage,

    Dr. Groove

    Plague Tapes #114

    I think we both know that this show starts on a bit of a low – cheerful music with samples of not so bright prospects, with the I’m 49 tune from Paddy McAloon, but we pull the whole thing out of a nose dive.  The healing and fruitful pursuit of music and the act of doing a show, helped me, and I hope it helps you.

     

    News Andrew brings you up to speed with increasing cases and ICU figures whilst the leaders decided to do something, because they cannot keep doing nothing.  Welcome to the great non-exit wave.  This is the place where we hope for a slow down in the rate of increase, but we had 4,570 cases yesterday, and we are thankful that the rate of increase appears to have slowed down, to be 115% as opposed to 150% of the previous week.  Incidence is massive, with over 1000 per 100,000 and 1% of the population over the last 14 days 1% of the poplation have had Covid.  With 93% of the population vaccinated, we are seeing that being vaccinated does not mean that you won’t catch and then spread it.  We believe that it slows down, vaccination but it doesn’t stop it.  Andrew tries to predict where we are heading with this – but remember this at least ‘The worst of the pandemic is behind us’. 

    Love & Rage,

    Dr. Groove
