COVID-19 — Coronavirus

[AlgarveBlu]

Isaac Newton's seminal work on optics,motion and calculus were all done while he was in isolation from the plague raging in London in 1666.

Bluemoon expects great things @1.618034 and @hilts!

totally irrelevant did he know how to read a graph? I’ve now realised this is an essential survival skill in this new world order.

Found this interesting. OK sneezing and coughing is obvious but speaking?

I don't wear a mask but when you read that perhaps we all should. Droplets shouldn't be able to penetrate a mask and yet we were told that only health workers need them.

Just breathing normally is what the 2 metre distancing is for.

I wonder if he means overweight or overfat?

Because I weigh 20 stone but I’m not fat.

Fuck me wouldn’t like to come across you after 6 Stella

You, me and every top medic in the world has no way of ever knowing if anyone at the point of death has/had "underlying conditions". Simply impossible for any hospital to run checks on the gamut of possible "underlying causes". Chill.

You may not mean what I think you mean, but if the underlying conditions are known, and on the patient record, I'd hope any hospital would know about them before treatment. There has been concern about privacy previously but I think the hospital can cite "business reasons" to access your nationally-held medical records, and some of the GDPR have been relaxed in this emergency.

Fernando Simón, the head of Spain’s centre for health emergencies, says the situation in Spain is beginning to improve (“We’re getting there.”)

There won't be much, if any, rise in global deaths today.

I don’t understand why a hospital wouldn’t know of underlying conditions.

Likely to be Public Task under DPA 2018.

I thank him for that,everyone needs to know what they are trying to protect themselves and others from
The one step fowards two steps back was the same for me and the coughing made me vomit at the same time,it is a cough like no other i have ever had

Christ:





That bit about his case being classed as ‘mild’ rather hits home after he’s described it as the worst I’ll was he’s ever had.

I see someone on twitter (I know!) said she's been sent a recording of some fella saying that COVID-19 is caused by 5G, and that there's a massive (oops) cover up going on. Time to break out the tin foil hat, methinks.

 

[mackenzie]

I can't do anything,i can't move foward like anyone else,i worry for everyone,i am frustrated as i can't help my immediate friends and neighbours,i have joined the volunteers to call people on their own,that will make me feel better,i also feel guilty that healthy people have died and not me in my battered condition and have the post serious illness exhausted feeling,it is a weird come down

Anyway sorry people,i am offloading,maybe in the wrong place

Karen, don't worry xx Your volunteering is wonderful and you will get through this with the rest of us on BM xx

Shame the Olympics are off because Bluemoon could raise a world-beating team for the Dismal Desmond downhill event.

You know which posters I mean.

Only too well sb,only too well.
