Re: Coronavirus
In an unrelated incident, I have a mate who has just returned from a gig in northern Italy. I asked him if he’s going to self-isolate due to Corvid-19. His reply?
Am I f***. I feel fine. I’ve got two good-paying jobs coming up in the next two week - who’s gonna pay me to sit indoors for a fortnight? No-one. So I’m going to work.
And there’s the problem. London is massively reliant on the so-called gig economy, people who are “self-employed” which means they don’t get holiday or sick pay. They’re usually immigrant and low-paid. If they get sick are they going to stop working? No they’re not. If C-19 hits London hard then it’s gonna spread like wildfire. Hold on to your hats, kids.

Re: Coronavirus
On average 5 people were killed on the roads every day in Britain last year (2019) so should we all stay indoors till cars are banned ?

The Chinese are hardly ever going to admit even if it is . From what I’ve read, if you catch this virus you’ll soon know your arse from your elbow

Re: Coronavirus
I had a meeting tomorrow and I’ve just had a call to advise it’s been cancelled as the company has formulated a plan to not let any visitors on to its sites in this country.
I see in the press Nike and Sony have all shut their London and Sunderland offices and Apple a Belfast store I guess for deep clean by people in hazmat suits. This doesn’t happen when people have the flu does it? Yet the flu kills upto 650k per year and this one a few thousand yet everything goes into overdrive for it.
Still think this is nothing to be worried about?

Re: Coronavirus
Can't believe all the goings on about this. Australia has sold out of toilet paper, as people are stockpiling. Someone pulled a knife in a supermarket in parramatta yesterday over toilet paper. Get a grip people.
I'm off to singapore this weekend. The great thing about this is that businesses are not flying anyone at the moment, so my business class upgrade using air miles has been granted, happy days.

Re: Coronavirus
Flu kills 650k people per year yet nothing happens from the authorities. This one kills a few people and cities are put on lockdown, machines cleaning streets, people in HAZMAT SUITS, treating people, cleaning buildings and you think it’s a simple flu? I tell you what, you’re the simple one for believing it.

We've covered this, its more deadly than flu (FACT) as it will kill 1-2% of those infected where as flu kills 0.1%Thor wrote: ↑Thu Mar 05, 2020 5:44 amFlu kills 650k people per year yet nothing happens from the authorities.
