Coronavirus

Just be aware.

Even if you don't catch the bug you're very likely going to suffer shortages of a lot of goods.

All my suppliers have their goods made in China and our planned orders due from now onwards are now going to be at least two months late.

We will run out of many ***** items in the coming couple of weeks, many companies are in the same boat.

The stock market fell by 13% this week which is the largest weekly fall since the world financial crisis in 2008.

If you're invested in a pension scheme don't check it present as it'll depress you.

China need calling out for their disgusting practices regarding the way they allow people to store live wild animals in these filthy marketplaces where wild animals, fish,poultry and people are crammed "cheek by jowl".

Every time there's a new virus or disease it seems to emanate from this region.........it's not good enough.

The Chinese need to start educating their people and treating this as seriously as they do if someone says something rude about Chairman Mao!

This virus situation is more serious than many seem to realise.

I agree with you Mickd but as I was saying last night imo the only way they will take any notice if we start restricting trade with them unless they change their awful ways. Same as other countries in that part of the world as well.

I shook hands with many folk today, expecting to have the virus confirmed soon

The show of apathy towards this thread points to why many of you old b a s t a r d s will be gasping for breath in a hospital bed in the next few weeks.

It’s coming........WAKEY,WAKEY.

Too much complacency!

Already stopped shaking hands. My wife and myself both have asthma so can’t afford the risk.

To be honest with you mate shaking hands with your wife is a bit formal......me and the wife just give each other a peck on the cheek!

More people die every year through starvation and being homeless, but the rich can't catch that so it's not as important.

Not wanting to rubbish this virus but most of us on this forum have a far greater chance of dying from prostrate cancer than we have from coronavirus.

Most who are unlucky enough to catch it will have mild systems similar to flu but only a small proportion will die. That said we do need to take reasonable steps to control it as best we can but unfortunately that will intimately be largely dependent upon the greater population taking sensible precautions and following advice. That is probably where, if anywhere, it will fall down!

I had a feeling this was coming.
