Slow news day? The real deal? End of the world? 
 

They’re saying it probably came from an animal, has Somebody been shagging monkeys again? 

I've just done a weeks isolation with all the symptoms (really bad  last weds, thurs and friday,  including nausea and vomitting, phone up for a test friday but they refused as only hospital cases being tested.Still got a runny nose today but all other symptoms gone, phoned work to tell them i'll be in tomorrow, but since then they have advised 14 days isolation. 

Another thing I can't get my head round is social isolation being advised for everyone,yet still keeping schools open.

More testing needs to be done surely.

As regards the at risk groups, fuck knows, but my dad and his missus are 100% in them.

Think the idea is that once people have had it they can then get back out into the Economy 

Your a great example of why we need to be tested, for all you know you may not have had it but it was a normal Flu 

Think they said some test is coming so you will know but it needs to come sooner rather than later

That’s the missus off work now for 15 months.....15 fkin months....thank god I work away.

Doing what ?😁

We’ve taken the decision to pull my mum out of the care home and isolate her at my sisters place.

She’s only weeks left to live anyway so we may as well let her feel like a free human being for what remains.

Plenty people seem to have the opinion that it’s just a flu and they shouldn’t have to let this impact their routine 

Hopefully the vast majority listen and observe it for everybody’s sake 

Not the case really. I’m going about my daily life but washing hands etc and will isolate if I feel ill. Doesn’t mean I’m a danger to anyone or disregarding Anything. I am going to catch it at some point. 
And I don’t think it’s. A flu and was the first on here to be really vocal about it. That said I’m not a high risk or I would be self isolating now

It’s mixed in with Maternity leave, if you can get pregnant I will get her to get you an application 

Isolate for two weeks with a cough

Go back

Get another cough

Isolate again

Start process again

 

Its madness

Ah, on second thought I withdraw my interest😃

Still think encourage risk groups to keep their head down and rest of us crack on

This is going to shut my business down

Zombies next😬

Hopefully the shuffling ones like in Dawn of the Dead (1978)

Definitely don't want the fast fuckers in the 2004 remake and if they’re like those sneaky bastards that can burrow underground in like in Resident Evil were fucked☹️

Essential reading is The Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks.

If i die from this i want to be buried, if there's a zombie up rising i want to be part of it

I believe if you have been advised to have a flu jab in the past then you are at risk. 

The yanks are really going for it
