COVID-19 — Coronavirus

[denislawsbackheel]

I never said summer will stop it, did I.
I said that the Coronavirus doesn't do well to survive in ambient temperatures above 25 degrees. That's from the CDC.

currently 32 degrees in Singapore, where it is rife...

Not to deviate further, but after taking a dump we Italians first wipe with toilet paper and then wash in the bidet.

Dirty bastards.

130 cases and no deaths?

We British use toilet paper and then a wire brush and dettol.

But it's an American source, so apparently not to be trusted.

They are a strange country full of made up tripe! But that is a university article, at least.

So I was incorrect in people being able to get it from >12ft away from each other (it was on that Dr’s video last week about it being aerosol transmitted) - but it does say it is still primarily transmitted respiratorily from ~6 feet.

Read that, he never mentions the summer (yes the CDC do) he isn't involved in actual cases but is theorising and as it says

"Chiu stresses that we do not yet have definitive data on how long the new coronavirus can survive on surfaces, but based on data from other coronaviruses such as SARS, it may be for up to two days at room temperatures."


Nothing there goes against what myself or @SWP's back have said.

The 25°c and summer stuff is utterly unknown as was the original point.

Followed by a quick dusting of Ajax, to soften the skin.

“The principal mode of transmission is still thought to be respiratory droplets, which may travel up to six feet from someone who is sneezing or coughing.”

So exactly what he was saying then.

hay fever season soon!

Unless it's Barry Manilow. See that **** with a tissue and you run, run like the wind my friend.
