Re: Chinese Coronavirus

On our local BBC evening news last night, there was a report from a Birmingham Uni scientist (I think) that Covid19 is mutating and losing its dangerousness insofar as hospital admissions and death rates are concerned. However, he thought that its infectiousness was becoming more and more potent.

Hi

In hospital we were checked, staff wore masks but patients did not on the wards.

On discharge we were warned about infectious it has become and how it remains dangerous with those with medical conditions.

We were also told masks are important to stop you spreading it, but to avoid catching it gloves and hand washing are the most important.

Re: Chinese Coronavirus

Something similar was reported in Victoria to the point of saying that we are dealing with two pandemics because the original strain has not gone away.

Re: Chinese Coronavirus

I have been reading about the 1918 pandemic.

Apparently it lasted for two years with four or five waves during that time (depending on where you were).

If we don't get a vaccine I guess that is what we have to look forward to. Can you cope with that prospect? I find it rather daunting.
