:covid_19: đŸ˜· đŸ„ Corona Virus the thread for all your fears ❓

I was going to sort of semi disagree with but then I read this which sort of suggests that doing this sort of thing sort of works


The cynic in me is wondering whether the laid back response in the UK is because all those Hedge Fund backers the Tories have got caught short by this outbreak.
Almost as though they are desperate to cling to normality so that it goes away and their Brexit fortunes aren’t fvcked over.

Seems we have fvcktards here as well.
A schooler head teacher came back from a holiday in Milan told nobody, went to work at school for 2 days before she became one of our 27 victims.
Of those 27, over 2,000 people who came into contact with them are now in mandatory self isolation.

High chance of probability this started in Wuhan, you only have to read that and see the pictures to know surely something like this was going to happen, hopefully they’ll put a total ban on wet markets as this must be so embarrassing for the regime. Backward.

Yes, I returned to dear old West Derby last week. Interesting return flight, a tale of virtually deserted airports, Bangkok especially although Abu Dhabi wasn’t far behind. On arrival at Abu Dhabi we were all told to wait in our seats, the doors opened and two guys in full chemical warfare gear walked up the plane spraying something, and another one checking temperatures. Landed in Manchester and there was absolutely nothing, although it was really quiet, from touchdown to walking to the car park took just 30 minutes. Straight through immigration and not a customs officer to be seen. Which was nice!

I just had to use this belter again.

Well, provided we’re both still kicking in these corona virus times, might be up for a liquid lunch in your local :smiley:

Well that was fun, just been into Tesco, - they had no toilet paper at all.

Reluctantly I headed for the checkout and asked if they had any. A firm NO was the answer.

Walking back to those toilets with my jeans around my ankles was a walk I never want to do again. :rage: :rage:

Now a pandemic.

I got some wise arse crack about not believing social media when I posted the story out of Italy by a Doctor.
Well here it is MSM’d.

Note the young also get Interstitial Pneumonia & need intubating

Its far too late for any precautions as such, its out, that is it.
I hope they nail to the mast the nation where this started if they can prove where it originated.

Get a bidet.

Keep washing your hands in the sink, like.

Unfortunately, that particular branch of Tesco have neglected to fit bidets in the gents bogs. They must be the only branch without them, fuck my luck. :rage: :smile:

I’ll be sure to tell the Mrs that it’s too late for precautions if she ever gets home (currently in the 14th hour of her shift). Dick.

Well its here, unless we lock down whole cities what can we do?
Why has your wife working a massive shift in which I presume a hospital got to with containing the virus?
Hospital is the last stage of said containment, we could have either shut the Country down or carry on, you off to Norwich Saturday?
How many carriers will be at Carrow Road? What happens when footballers catch it?
Wind your neck in.

Well, if it’s our players they’ll only pass it to the opposition.

We need to slow the spread down which means taking precautions. Like hand washing. Like limiting travel. Like social distancing. As I have said. Schools should be shut. Events cancelled etc. Hospitals are preparing. They know it’s coming. There are only 4000 odd ICU beds in the entire country. We are going to be fucked in the arse by this. Anyone saying it’s just like flu is in for a shock. Anyone not taking precautions (and that starts with our shite Government) is being negligent.
It’s not you or me who will be fucked. But my parents are approaching their 80’s and have health issues. Yours?

Let’s play Fantasy COVID-19 shall we?

You’ve got COVID-19 and you have the choice of staying in your house with your wife, young children and let’s say a couple of 80+ year old relatives that are staying with you, or you can stay with a mate down the road who also is infected.

Do you put lives at risk because, I don’t know, it’s too late to take precautions or do you, I don’t know, take a precaution and reduce the risk?

You’re missing my point, its here and unless people who are in danger of catching don’t self contain what do you think is going to happen? If its community spread washing you fucking hands won’t make a difference.
The only way to slow it down is a lock down and even then people will break it, we go batshit crazy for shitroll over Marge on facebook saying something what do you think if emergency powers came in?
Precautions?
What precautions, we don’t even know what it is, how its spread, where it came from and what kills it in the body.
Worried? Of course I am but that doesn’t change what I said does it?
Not a jot, you still going to Norwich?
