I had severe diarrhoea the week before last. I’d gone on a high fibre diet consisting of eating a lot of fruit. I put it down to this. Who knows, and I suspect the vast majority who do contract it will never be diagnosed.
On separate, but related note I stocked up on toilet rolls from Costco yesterday. It was surreal. Everyone was buying them. I also stocked up on anti bacterial floor wipes. I use them at work to wash my hands anyway. A bit strong for the purpose but I find they don’t act as an irritant on your hands although I did once have a wipe round by bollocks and ended up calling 111 for assistance. Sanitiser and hand wipes completely empty on the shelves. |  |

The geniuses bulk-buying hand sanitiser are a sad indictment of our me, me, me society and will actually prolong the virus rather than stop it. |  | | |

People were also racing for the bottled water. Again I buy that anyway for work, so got a crate as per usual, but I really don’t see the rationale behind stockpiling it. It’s like toilet rolls people are just buying it because other people are buying it. Conversely it’s being reported sales of Corona beer have been decimated. | |

I don’t hold out much hope for some kind of ‘Blitz spirit’ if things do turn into a genuine crisis. Hope your arse gravy issue has cleared up now OS  | | | |

I’m much better thanks xxx
It does seem like a storm is on the way, and I do think the symptoms and general discomfort of the illness are being down played so as to quell panic. From what I’m reading when it does go ballistic it’s going to all happen over a short period around Easter. I hope everyone I know gets through it. In the absence of any effective medicine all we can do is undertake to care for our elderly relatives. Above all make them eat, even if they don’t want to, because to feed a cold is to starve a fever. | |

Anyone bulk buying anything is a c*nt. I went to Waitrose yesterday to do a normal weekend shop for sunday lunch stuff and other things we're running low on - toilet rolls gone, kitchen rolls gone, paracetamols gone, anything branded at Dettol, also gone. People are weird.
Everyone commented how it was weird, so just who are these selfish idiots bulk buying everything?
What about the old people or less able to go to the shop more frequently as they can't carry much home? How will they wipe their backsides now? |  |

It’s not that weird, it’s simply human psychology that is hard wired into us. Humans think, shît this virus is coming and I’d better do something. But what to do? Might as well buy bog roll as that’s an essential, unless you’re from Pompey and shît in an outhouse and wipe with leaves. By actually doing something helps calm the nerves. Basically human brains on one level are not that bright. | |

Felt all week like death warmed up but being outdoors with no close contact and self employed you just keep going.
Worst flu ever was shortly after being vaccinated against it three winters back. Thought it would kill me. Have refused all flu jab offers since. | | | |

Is it any wonder that toilet rolls are particularly prized items Down Under?

I gave up smoking 21 months ago. In light of how this infection kills off the cilia in your lungs, which are essentially hairy looking things which act as a filter to stop infection, stopping smoking was a good thing. In smokers that protection is already severely damaged so covid19 essentially enters an already weakended and vulnerable organ.
I’m already on vitamin d3 4000 IU, and lots of fruit and fruit juice. If and when you get this virus my battle plan is to continue eating and drinking as normal to ward off the inevitable bronchial infection turning to pneumonia. [Post edited 8 Mar 2020 11:55]

I’m currently in Alsreford at the Watercress line about to go in the Flying Scotsman (an I’ll thought out Christmas present from the in-laws).Given the demographic of my fellow passengers, I’d be amazed if I haven’t got it by the morning. | | | |
