how serious is the coronavirus?
Its a death threat !
i get it im dead simple
im lucky in some ways that i live an isolated life and live in a small village
but going to the gps surgery & co.op 3 times a week fills me with dread because if it does appear locally you know the contaminated will ignore the signs and wonder around spreading the bug ,,cus its only a cold
i haven't been to italy ect,
its the same with people who refuse to give their children the measles
injections because some di ck said it caused autism ,,
never mind about the autoimmune whom your a death threat too or pregnant woman whose babies are at risk,
im all right jack attitude...
and it is fine until that child gets measles and then they expect the nhs to pay ,care and heal said child .
i digress
i have 2 visitors a week a cleaner and a carer who both come once a week and know this time of year that if their sniffing a bad cold to stay away
the boys come every 2 week but any sort of bad colds or flu they stay away,a few weeks ago the youngest had to come here with a bad cold and basically spent it in isolation in the bed room,
it will be a month or more before i could let them near me if corona appears
so im doing everything i can medications are delivered to the door by the chemist
the food cupboard and freezer have 6 weeks of meals /food as standard
in case my lungs are having a wobble and cant get out,so im well prepared for a run oh and ive a stack of newspapers just incase
milk is the worst
coffee with uht milk !!!
i may have to learn to drink it black
i seen a few concerns over my situation
and im thankful of your thoughts
good afternoon pop pickers,still breathing
UTF !

Dublin while I’ve made a few points on here about media driven panic behaviour from the general public etc, I absolutely appreciate that for someone such as yourself, the Coronavirus is a major concern and my heart goes out to everyone with underlying health issues. Hoping you stay safe

Public hysteria for you. Probably why we've not been told that aliens exist. Imagine the fallout from that.

It is a serious concern
But every winter so is the flu bugs
I have 3 injections
Flu, bronchitis and one they give to oaps
As even a mild dose will be a serious illness with the possibility of death or lungs completely gone and living on oxygen for a few years,,,,
The biggest worry with this is there's no cure or jab yet
Next year if it does not mutate it'll be nothing but a mild winter bug like the vomiting bug ( also a killer for me)
Bloody hell the list gets bigger 🤔
I have to say most the panic is being driven by social media rather than the press,
Some of the humour is dark but funny🙄

Years ago we use to laugh at how the yanks reacted to stuff
Head to hills, with more guns then the army 🤔
I now think we are worse
Years of kids playing zombie games 🤦♂️
Did you miss the one about aliens
It came out in the 70s
Main colony is on one of Saturn's moons
Next to titan? and early warning / advanced base on the
Dark side of the moon,
When we get to star trek type space ships that can travel
They will keep us contained, they won't let us loose out there 👽👾🤖

OP.
Just back from Linfield v Carrick game an my mates dad is well past 70 and many old guys attend.
Am 55 with asthma lol.....
Mate I sat with is 57 and plays three times a week....so age is an odd thing....and his dad swims and goes to gym 4 times a week.
Blaming the old for brexit, bigotry and now the virus is lazy, imo.
And as years pass fast, we are all old too soon lmao.

Unfortunate being so young
Before the invention of inter Web
Conspiracy was so much more fun, hoping your local village library would contain the secretly written books or access to old newspapers,
Anybody remember the micro file machines 😲
Tons of information placed on film cards 6 inch square??
Then back magnified to the screen
This was the mass information future 😎🔮

Dublin, one tip on the milk - get yourself a supply of powdered milk. It lasts for ages and tastes a whole lot better than UHT. I used to travel a lot for work and powdered milk was a real godsend. Stay safe and UTF.

I have some for baking, must give it a go.
On day trips with the kids I use to take coffee cream powder that was good
Must get some in for emergencies,
I guess you use it like the sachets of 2in1 or 3in1 nescafe
Thanks DD

Yep, keep on going, dubs. It’s better than the alternative.
Keep safe.
