we should have a WWays sweepstake for the first one to catch it, Gonzo can do names out the pot like usual

Worthy10 must be a favourite with his travelling, and whoever it was who went to the canaries recently, maybe Fan5 for passing it off as a cold

I'm in anyway

Superb idea.

Escobarp ain’t getting it up there, CV can’t break an irn bru immune system.
I travel a bit but I’m gonna be doing the ‘Chinese handshake’ from now on.

I reckon cheese lives in an underground bunker with Miami’s and royal whites name on the wall so he’ll be reet.

Im betting on someone who frequents on a public transport to work.

I’m in. Gonzo get it sorted lad.

For the record - I've never once, said anything like that.

I can probably get one saying coronahangover. Would that win?

Which is tough considering people aren't meant to rock up at their GP practices...issue was discussed on the radio about people asked to self isolate and how (when this thing is more common) they could prove it to an employer - suggestion that NHS111 would provide a record confirming person was asked to isolate.

Irn bru extra and copious amounts of fried food should see it off. Health kick has been abandoned im stocking up on calories now ahead of the food shortages. 

pizza crunch and chips for lunch 

deep fried steak pie chips and curry sauce for my tea 
that’ll show this fucking virus who’s boss  

 

and if cv doesn’t get me the heart attack will 💪🏽

Captainmed must be fairly high on the list. 

Anytime soon all the old codgers are going to appear en masse at garden centres. Must put my work related visits on the high risk level.

Perhaps a jacket with "I've already got it" emblazoned across it would create a safe zone around me.

Nobody has said it to my knowledge. Someone paraphrasing and making stuff up doesn't mean it was said.

My point has always been and remains that this is a novel virus - caused by a virus that also causes the common cold - but one we've no immunity to. Its not good news at all, but far from the severity of such a virus with this infection and a SARS like mortality rate. The mortality rate is officially 3.4% BUT virtually every epidemiologist believes it to be well under that given the number of mild undetected cases.

Its bad for the economy, our lifestyles and everything else. And some probably many people will sadly die from contracting it BUT perspective still needed that ultimately its not something that will wipe out entire populations - Spanish Flu targeted younger healthier people for example - that was seriously awful compared to a virus that generally, younger healthier people will shake off. Or compared to Ebola or Sars were they this infectious that kill up to 20% of people infected.

I believe the comment from memory was this is just a common cold like virus or something to that effect. 
We have three medical “experts” on here. Kent who is but sticks to the facts. Peelyfeet who appears to come to life on the subject which is good and appears knowledgeable. And fanny5. Of the 3 I’m sure it was fanny5 by process of elimination who made the comment. He will undoubtedly be along when he’s finished with his stint preparing the England side for the upcoming 6 nations and briefing guardiola on tactical adjustments for the weekend.  
 

anyway I reckon I’ve got it.  Had a fever a couple of days ago and have had a cough/chesty feel for a couple days as well and feel a bit under the weather. 
 

for the record I am not self isolating
