    In Iran around 8% of MPs have the virus.  If the same rate infects British Parliamentarians then 52 will get the virus.

     

     

    I don't think the Brit MPs had underlying lung problems after being gassed by Brit supplied gases in the 1980's....

     

    A lot of their politicos were cannon fodder v Iraq.

    I suppose one silver lining is that Liverpool will probably win the EPL in the most underwhelming way possible. Either behind closed doors or by default.

    Tent Alexander Arnold will be gutted.

     

    He'll be erected no doubt.

    Doesn't help when there are people as thick as the stupid young woman at the gym this morning.  She walks up to the water fountain, then decided that before she fills her water bottle, it would be a good idea to cough all over the fountain, didn't even get close to trying to cover her mouth.  Unfortunately in the UK this is pretty standard behaviour.  No wonder one of the Chief Medical Officers said that the chances of us avoiding an epidemic in this country were "slim to zero"

    As someone who is on medication which impairs the immune system, I am angry that it seems there is going to be danger everywhere thanks to the ignorance of others.

     

    People going to a gym isn't "standard behaviour" 🙄

     

    So you are whining for no reason. Don't want to encounter folk like that, don't go.

    The weakest in society are the most vulnerable but then again it doesn't mean to say just because your relatively healthy your going to be ok. There is a lot of different angles from it at no point in any of our lives are we really safe from anything.  As with covid as the name suggest this is the 19th strain of it which seems to be the most contageous and deadly (probably because if you look on dettol it says it kills covid just how effective it is against the 19th strain is anyones guess.

    Though i do think there is a bit of a mass panic over it can someone explain what bog roll is going to do to prevent it i can understand the dettol wipes but not the bog roll (i appreciate the sneezing part but there are also tissues or handkerchiefs)

    The 19 is for the year it was identified not the strain.

    Lol.

     

    The World Health Organization announced on 11 February 2020 that "COVID-19" will be the official name of the disease. World Health Organization chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said "co" stands for "corona", "vi" for "virus" and "d" for "disease", while "19" was for the year, as the outbreak was first identified on 31 December 2019. Tedros said the name had been chosen to avoid references to a specific geographical location (i.e. China), animal species, or group of people in line with international recommendations for naming aimed at preventing stigmatization

     

     

    Chinese Bat Flu would have been more memorable.

    At work today and I saw the unluckiest seagull in creation.

     

    We'd taken out a shitload of feed to put in bins but had to leave a stack of six to cut in once we'd fed some.

     

    But... We took a break afore then, a mob of gulls attacked the stack and....

    they knocked the stack over in their frenzy.

     

    This poor cunto had a 25 kg bag on his back, was still alive but a bit groggy when we lifted the bags off.

     

    Put it back in the sea and it drifted off with the slight wind, I was kinda looking that way when he got to about 50 yards away and 🦅⤵️💥 , a big fuckoff Sea Eagle smashed out of nowhere, grabbed him and started flying to the wee isle a few hundred yards away, whilst being dive bombed by 30 odd other gulls.

     

    Got to the isle and a few rapid pecks and Game Over and the gulls fooked off.

     

    Never got a photo of that as you just stand and watch 😁 , the wings were huge ffs.

     

    🎩⤵️ Mr Gull, wasn't your day.

    Not far off true, but glad you answered the Q 🙄

     

    No matter, it'll be whit it'll be, and neither of us can influence the Response.
