ALERT

SOMEONE RICH HAS THE VIRUS

She’s a career for her 84 year old mum, who’s also showing symptoms, and the daily mail sent a reporter to doorstep her!

Hey, careful. Some people have non-infectious permanent coughs for many reasons.

I cough every day, guaranteed.

I believe some of the more recent virus confirmation nos were in Navan. Have been on to my Great Aunt telling her to stay in doors and stop hanging out with her friends, but she has a social life that even 19 year old would have envied. She refuses to stop going to Bingo twice a week, and is planning on attending her Friday night poker drive. She's 91 and stays out playing poker til 4am in the morning. Hopefully all this shit will be cancelled, but anyone else have elder realatives that are basically just like "fuck it, i'm doing what i want"

It's from January 25th; yet 1000 times more informative than what we have now. At that time people in Wuhan were calling it Wuhan Pneumonia.

Except the gloves bit, apparently they can be counter-productive:

Wearing gloves can actually increase your risk of catching coronavirus

“Gloves should not be treated as an alternative to good hygiene,” said Dr. Simran Deo.

Interesting.

Interesting.

Its so hard to know! I think the general idea is that people may just wear gloves all day but then take them off/not wash them, etc. Whereas, the best defense is regular handwashing and santizing areas?
