    A couple of high profile cases

    First Charles and now Boris.

    wonder if they'll use the anti malaria drug on them?

    You don't here anything about the people who recover. Only the worst case scenarios.

    I indirectly know of three people who came back Italy with it - two had mild symptoms one none but all three tested positive, they are now fit and well = the media always likes the worse case stories what ever happens. Charles had a really busy schedule prior to being diagnosed with lots of close contact with people from a variety of countries so no surprises there, apparently he has upset a lot of people by going to Balmoral where there wasn't a problem - Boris looks to be a case of not doing what he was preaching, they showed some footage from Parliament and there wasn't much distance being kept.

    Its a very odd and very evil virus.Hardly touches one person yet kills another..even those who have no underlying health issues.
    Over a thousand deaths in our country now with god knows how many more to follow..and just look around at other country's death toll as well.

    Heartbreaking

    I know people who swear they had this at Christmas time, now that it’s just been brought to light. They weren’t even able to lift their head of the pillow and fortunately recovered. Who knows how long this has been going on..

    will be interesting to see what happens when tests become readily available. I think as many as 25-30% of the population has already been exposed and contracted it. I guess that's actually good news.

    Luckily it seems to have little or no affect on children. very, very few deaths or even serious illness
