COVID-19 — Coronavirus

So, the symptoms so far are, fever, dry cough and runny nose. Is that really all we're going on, because thousands will have those symptoms in March. Just what do you do?

I thought a runny nose meant you are OK ?

But on the flip side you'd have them at home all day.

I actually like my kids, so would be happy enough with that ;-)

Oh right yeah. It wiped out half of South America. It was eradicated in the 60’s though thanks to vaccines.

That’s what I was getting at, without a vaccine anyone who hasn’t had the virus is open to infection, from those who maybe immune but incubate the virus.
I don’t know, a few whiskeys and my mind starts asking theses things!

Fair play then pal.

Come on Gelson, you should realise by now that you are only 'allowed' to contribute to this thread if you agree that it is going to be apocalytic.

Good advice. If people stop coming on here saying it's just like normal flu and they don't know what the fuss is about, it would be most helpful.

26000 tested - presumably mostly of people who are aware of some risk - and 25700 not infected.

korea have been testing 10k a day for weeks.

apparently we ramping up to 10k a day now.

Unless they are providing facts and evidence to back up the claims rather than blind hope and opinion.

Yep. I’d love nothing more than this turning out to be a nothing burger as the markets would go back to normal and I could earn some money again so any and all fact based hope would be greatly welcomed.

Hear, hear.

It’s the odd bit for me that a fair few on here seem to think a person with a progressive autoimmune disease is *hoping* this becomes a Spanish Flu like outbreak.
