Yep sure is Bakerman even the title of the thread would suggest that."Chinese Coronavirus" but the old buggers on here soon lose focus and wander off jabbering away to themselves.
Everything I have read on this virus suggests it is some sort of very strong flu bug starting with fevers,and then hard to get your breathe, possibly being followed up by pneumonia,which I would presume would be the final stage for people with low immune systems.
People being advised to stay away from raw meats, making sure that everything is cooked properly, and not spitting in public.
A touch of the old TB ruling there when spitting was against the law.
God knows what the football and rugby players are going to do probably take a box of tissues on the pitch with them to spit into. Or perhaps put a spitoon or two on the side of the pitch like they used to have in the old cowboy movies.
Spent many a hour on the fields in my earlier years playing football and can not remember myself ever spitting except possibly one time when I lost my front teeth.
