Yes.... to all the above.


I will go looking for it.
Is your wife OK? Did you once mention that she has an illness?

My wife will always struggle with health and the virus will not be good for her. Thank you for asking.

I hope you and family are strong to get through this round of challenges.

Off to church, catch all later.

Regards Tony

Yes he caught it from his patients, got ill and died. Nothing terribly suspicious about that.
China never said he died of the virus. They said he just died.

This is quite different from another of their prominent physicians who got the disease. They announced he had it, showed video of him in the hospital, and announced he died of the disease.

Chinese folk who criticize their government in any way seem to just disappear. This is the standard scenario.

Re
Seeing it already: getting more nods and hellos then usual walking down the street and on the bike trail, even though there are a lot fewer people out and about.

I'm trying to feed into it too: every time I buy something now, I thank the cashier for coming into work today, and I make sure they see me spray my hands with hand sanitizer before I hand them my cash.

Really classy !!! " do unto others as you would have them do unto you".

Well the Tories have had a run of bad'uns, but would one really want Corbyn in charge? :oops:


Seems younger people can become critical with this disease

a Dallas area story says:

quote
Of the new cases: two women in their 20s, one man in 30s, one man and one woman in 40s, two women in 50s, one man in 60s, one woman in 70s. Eight are from the city of Dallas. One case is related to international travel.

The individuals in their 20s and 30s are in critical condition, and they have no underlying health conditions.

Quite. Even though there are specific vulnerable groups of people, it still can claim the lives of others.

And a news report today has a 34 year old who died after catching the virus at Disneyword. Now he was a cancer survivor and had childhood bronchitis and a number of other things... but ... catching it at Disney is scary indeed

With thousands of college people at Florida beaches for Spring break there is a risk of spreading over an adolescent mind set that believes 'it can't happen to me'.

I think I might have caught it.
I noticed a few days ago that I had a mild dry cough and headache. Then I began feeling mildly nauseous.
Today I felt dog tired, headache, muscle soreness and fatigue.
Late afternoon I decided to have a power nap, and woke up at 10 pm, thinking it was tomorrow. Slightly disoriented, still have a dull headache, and slight shortness of breath.

It feels just like flu, but milder.
I couldn’t get tested if I wanted to, I don’t fit the criteria. Fortunately, I don’t want to. It’s pointless. I’m in lockdown anyway.

I did travel on a regional train service a few times last week, and on my local bus, so I guess it’s possible.

If it is c19, I can imagine hundreds of thousands of people as sick as me (not very), who would not report it, or even care too much.

I’m going back to bed for a few days. Goodnight.

Right now if I get hang-nail I start panicking and start taking Sudafed.

I didn't vote because it is missing an important position.

It is serious for those who have compromised health situations but I am not worried.
and/or "It's the Chinese fault" :D
Are you not worried about the health others you may spread it to?

I don't doubt it's real, a danger and not a hoax. However, I'm appalled at the frenzy the news media have been fueling. They are reporting with the glee of a cartoon villain twirling his mustache. There was no reason for the greed people were exhibiting in supermarkets over toilet paper, produce, chicken. Got two weeks' worth of toilet paper for when you're quarantined? But by the time you are quarantined you've run out of that supply? Can't get anymore because now you are quarantined and the next wave of greedy horders cleaned out the stores while you're finishing your last roll? "How's splashing toilet bowl water all up in your stuff working out for you, Karen?"

This is hitting home right now as one of my wife's cousins (age 60) is on life-support and is not doing well at all.

Also, the New England Journal of Medicine has reported that droplets from a cough or sneeze with this virus can linger in the air for up to two hours, which makes sense since this is spreading so rapidly.

Well I hope you get better if it is such. :(

lol.
I honestly don’t give a ****.
Although I would be annoyed if I die before the fake alien invasion.
That will be entertaining.

The fake invasion thing is probably going to happen. How else will the entire World get consolidated under one government and one currency?
