Re: The Madness of Football & Its Consequences.
Some time ago my brother made a statement to the fact that you can no longer manage without a smart phone, can't even wipe your **** if you do not have one.
Poetic words maybe.
Last night speaking with my niece in London, she is a radiographer in the Middlesex hospital and her husband is head of the department.
According to her there is a dire shortage of equipment for testing and a shortage of masks for the medical staff to wear when conducting tests.
She tells me there is no need to wear one as the virus is not caused by sneezing or coughing.
It is a contact virus, it enters the body through open orifices such as nose or mouth, so a mask will prevent it if it is on your hands and you touch your mouth or nose.
But she told me that those who had contracted it were feeling fine within a day or so once the fever goes.
Out Minister of Internal Affairs, Home Office, has contracted it after a trip to USA. But after day one also says he feels fine now the fever is gone but will self isolate for the 14 day period required.
Latest figures world wide, Confirmed cases 128,343
Total recovered 68,324
On recovery path 55,720
Deaths 4270
Countries effected 116


Happy daze John in Oz.

Re: The Madness of Football & Its Consequences.
This is seems to short a period and only applies to those that survive?
