Corona Virus

[Prada47]

Hello

Just a couple of question in regards to this Virus. and if we could lets discuss without Politics or Poor comments !!

1 ) is this Virus a type of Flu with Flu like symptoms ??

2 ) Has anyone any idea of the treatment ? Is it treated like Flu with Over the Counter Medication

Just 2 questions which I feel sure quite a few of us with Chronic Heart Conditions would like answers to

The NHS has this information

nhs.uk/conditions/coronavir...

Lots and lots of hand washing is the best protection along with avoiding touching your eyes, nose, mouth or face with unwashed hands

We may have to stop shaking hands and greeting people with an embrace and kiss....not difficult if you are British 😉

Very similar to the other link with the additional advice to cook meat and eggs well. Bang goes my egg and soldiers!!

Do the WHO not know that eggy soldiers and tea are the mainstay of maintaining our morale and stiff upper lip that is required

I am imaging Dad's Army and Corporal Jones shouting

' don't panic!'

Keep calm and carry on 😳🤧

Eggsactly! I do get some from a friends local hens on allotment so may have to risk it for now.

Imagine if TEA became contaminated with something. I'm guessing China tea may have fallen from grace already?

I have the added complication of no spleen and therefore a compromised immune system, so I’m being extra careful - lots of hand washing, bottles of sanitiser all over the place, wipes for my keyboard, phone etc at work. Colleagues all know about my health risks so most are careful around me and thankfully it’s a small office.

Keeping my fingers crossed we don’t get a big outbreak in the UK.
