Hi
Look on Social Media.
The kids are playing the game.
They are heroes, been abroad, pretend you are ill and get everyone two weeks off school.

Re: Chinese Coronavirus
Some expert on tv this morning said that masks won't stop you getting viruses. They're supposed to be for those with viruses to wear to stop them infecting others. However, when the mask gets wet from breath or mucus it seeps through and then touching it gets the virus onto hands.Not really effective either way.
Best not to breathe

I hope that helped you.

My son says there is one in the nearest town
I just want a paper mask not one that looks like I am about to do a spot of welding or remove an asbestos roof .
Can’t believe that all the chemists are completely sold out and there suppliers have none either .
They must have sent them all to China .

What is odd is that the siblings of kids, supposedly in isolation are still going to school etc. They could be carriers.
I'm fed up with it now!
Can we have something else please?
