COVID-19 — Coronavirus

[kaz7]

I must admit I am thinking twice about where I go and what I do...My lady is more in the at risk category than I am, hence I panicked a little when I remembered all the Italian folk I had been sat in the midst of.

We are supposed to be off to the Balkans for a couple in the middle of April. If neither of us gets it before then and its looking safer there than here at that time I think we will stop there all May as I had another week in Zadar for the first week of June. Cheap Airbnb somewhere of the beaten track for a few weeks.

I dont think many realise that some of us will gradually become in effect imprisoned due to the danger of getting it. You will be gambling with your life simply going to the shop. They reckon it will peak in May here so I am thinking if we do get to April and sod off it would be stupid to jump on a plane back into the midst of it.

Once we get to spring it should die down a bit the experts reckon,i wouldn't go in a plane even then,germs spread like mad usually on them

Is there a case in wythenshawe or not ?

Sorry if I caused confusion yes looks like there is the MEN article said updated today but later articles are all saying there is

Thats my biggest concern about the trip. I am going to keep an eye on its progress in Croatia as there is already decent weather there and if it seems to be pretty safe I might risk it. If I could I would bugger off now before it gets too prevalent.

My gut feeling could be wrong and it be as bad over there as here.

think how many people go for a piss on a plane and touch the door on the way out, after they have washed their hands! It only takes one who doesn’t to leave it on the handle!

I cannot help feeling our government is more concerned about the economy than the people.

Anyone else think that more radical action should have been taken much earlier?

Mrs who works at Wythenshawe hospital just messaged me to say just had a confirmed case

Will be on the news later probably

Nuke Wythenshawe.

what do you suggest that could have stopped/contained it?

 

[Blue Hefner]

Nuke Wythenshawe.

That would be a solution to many things, not just Corona. As long as the nuking stays in Wythenshawe and doesn't creep into Brooklands*....

*Brooklands neighbors Wythenshawe, for our non-South Side friends....

If its as bad as they are say and it might infect 80% of us then its bloody serious and lock downs bans on large gatherings...travel restrictions should have been done at least a week ago. whatever it takes?

Come on, 80 people (reported) out of 70 million have it! Let's not go to ground just yet.
