There has been no obvious peak in Poland
I'd say there has and that the main difference is that Poland has a much larger population than Ireland and the curve is much flatter (for whatever reason) if you scale the Irish numbers to Poland that would be a week or so of over 300 deaths a day (and the highest single day total in Poland has been 40).
Unless Poland gets to a rate of 25 or more deaths for three days in any five day period (a ratio I just made up) or unless the hospitalization rate increases back over 2200 for a week then Poland is past the peak.
Does Ireland publicize hospitalization numbers? It seems like a useful number to keep track of but if all hospitals are treating coronavirus patients then it might be awkward to collect....
