Things I have learned in the last few weeks: if a babygrow doesn't have a zip it is a waste of time, sure buttons look simple but in an emergency clasps refuse to clasp! And those cute-looking two- or three-piece outfits, save them for your most bitter of enemies #babythings

Our new Brainstorm article showing COVID-19 is much more severe than the seasonal flu is now online, with @ger_the_sea Rebecca Dempsey and @aparnellstats
Just a bad flu? How Irish death notices debunk that Covid-19 myth. By @ger_the_sea Rebecca Dempsey @aparnellstats @MaynoothUni & @PadraigMacC @UL rte.ie/brainstorm/2020/0928/…
The number of death notices for June posted to RIP.ie is back to being close to the average June. However, some counties, eg. Carlow, Offaly, Leitrim, that did not have a particularly high number of death notices in April or May have highest ever June (see below)
Counties like Cork, Limerick, Dublin and Kildare are all low for June after having a relatively high number of death notices in April.
