The Chinese flu outbreak .......wonder why there's panic ?

EddieM · 26 Jan 2020

It's being blamed on the Chinese taste for warm (read undercooked) meat. Don't know if that's true though.

Anyway yes i would be a fluffer for the right price, would you?

Nope...

But I guess it's each one to their own 'taste'

In one Chinese hospital, a patient in isolation was told he will be fed pizza and kippers.
"Will that cure me"? he asked.
"No" said the doctor, "It's the only food we can slide under the door"

Some say that Spanish flu killed more people than died in The first world war

That's true and in a few months compared with the war which was four years.

Its causes viral pneumonia of which there is no medication. Essentially if you are strong and fit you should be able to fight it off, if your an old guy, you might not be so lucky.

Antibiotocs will not work in this situation.

Silly arse.

They work, if they're worn and used properly.

Not to mention,removed,disposed off correctly etc...In some sort of medical airlock...In the real world probably a complete waste of time

Face masks only have the ability to block particles of 0.3 microns, but the coronavirus is smaller at 0.12 microns.
The mask wont stop the virus, but will tend to stop the wearer from directly touching their nose/mouth which is a common way that viruses enter the body.
