    Fit lads, footballers Delmi, so I wouldn’t have thought too much concern about the individual. The massive problem though is who else has he been in contact with, must be mind boggling the questioning. Can’t imagine be asked to wrack your brains to recall everyone you’ve been in contact with over the last week or so, mind boggling.

    Like I said, I'm not panicking. I'm living completely normally and will continue to do so until told otherwise but the refusal by some people to acknowledge that the steps that are being taken internationally in reaction to this outbreak mark is out as something different and potentially more worrying really confuses me
    And what will our worry achieve?

I just picture Italian people out and about on decent mild evenings greeting each other warmly while we’re a sort of wave and ‘all right mate’. Traditional British stand offishness may have been a bit of an advantage this last month or two.
    Yes, that's a good point about the "touchy-feely" aspect. If we don't get a sudden exponential increase in cases soon, then it will be interesting to hear what the medical guys have to say about it. Not that I want to see an exponential increase, far from it!

    I've read a lot about Britain being something like 13 days behind Italy. All countries are going to have had similar stats to Italy at some point, so I don't necessarily buy that Britain will turn into Italy with regard the virus. It might, but it's not the guarantee that some seem to be suggesting.

    I don't follow that logic about being 13 days behind Italy either. The countries bordering Italy have had nothing like the infections they have suffered and it's only this week the country has been on lockdown.

    Had an Asda home delivery earlier:

    Did you have the email?
    Yes, the nuts I ordered are out of stock.
    I have never seen anything like this, we are running out of everything.
    People really are panic buying?
    Yeah, it's incredible. This past week or so has been busier than at any time over Christmas.

    I think Italy will be seen as a slightly special case when all is said and done. A lot of Wuhans neighbouring provinces and China’s neighbours all had different responses and results,

    I’m in Vitoria-Gasteiz, which is getting something like 30/40/50 new infections a day. We were up to 200 yesterday. Schools closed now. Limited gatherings.

    The minister of health in Spain has said that worst case the epidemic will be gone by July.

    I’m teaching in a private language school. We should probably shut for a few weeks but private enterprise are in it for the money. Staff health is secondary. We’ll only close when someone comes down with something.

    I’ll be quitting after this thing is done.

    Re: Coronavirus update

    What people are forgetting is over the last few months in the far away land of China we Europeans and the rest of the world thought hmmm sad but their problem. Too far away to affect us. Stop eating bats and whatever.
    Then reasons unbeknown Italy and Iran had the virus develop after China, took them by surprise and it spread, really spread. To the point of both countries medical services are now on the brink. In this time through well publicised media the other surrounding nations have had time to observe and make judgements however it is spreading. Yes we are weeks behind but it will catch up.
    Cobra meeting tomorrow to go into delay phase. Don’t panic but, get what you need supply wise and batten down the hatches.
    The videos I’ve seen from Italy and Iran (people on the ground videos) are bloody scary so I think let’s not be complacent about it.

    Re: Coronavirus update

    Interesting read with some good graphs. It backdates the cases the authorities knew about at the time with the actual numbers, along with some other stuff. One big conclusion is


    Countries that are prepared will see a fatality rate of ~0.5% (South Korea) to 0.9% (rest of China).
    Countries that are overwhelmed will have a fatality rate between ~3%-5%

    10 UK deaths (earlier today), 2 of them overseas.

    How many people have died in the UK from the ordinary Flu over the same time scale? I bet it's more than 10.

    I thought Asda only delivered to people with online accounts, not those who transacted exclusively in cash and gold doubloons.

    The Fake News Media and their partner, the Democrat Party, is doing everything within its semi-considerable power (it used to be greater!) to inflame the CoronaVirus situation, far beyond what the facts would warrant. Surgeon General, “The risk is low to the average American.”

    People love a drama, and the past two weeks the media, politicians, etc. have been acting like the big drama queens they are. Next they'll be painting red crosses on our doors and have bin men come road calling for the dead - then again they'll probably leave them in the gutter for being put in the wrong colour coffin..
