Anyone know anybody whose had it yet?

[BG2015]

I have family all over the U.K. and no one knows anyone whose been affected yet?

You do know people. Probably several people. They just aren’t in the bracket of those with severe symptoms.

I don't know anyone with a known case, I have asked friends and family and they don't either.

I'm fairly sure I've got it/nearly over it, but no way of getting tested so we will never know!

No

I don’t know of anyone. I guess here in Cornwall we’re quite lucky as we don’t have any really large populations. DD has had a nasty cough but no other symptoms

Does anyone know how long this virus has 'out'.Did it just appear in China a couple of months ago?

One, he returned from abroad and felt hot and a bit fluish, he was tested and then when it came back positive taken to an isolation unit and was out within 3 days after negative tests.

Yes I do.

Possibly... DP returned from abroad (place not considered a hotspot) came down with flu symptoms a few days after, more ill than I've ever seen him, awful cough, aching body but no temp. Four days in bed and he's over the worst. Not tested as he chose to self isolate and didn't see any medical professionals so we'll never know.

Yes, they had returned from abroad. Very ill for a week and then started to improve.

No, even though I work with hundreds of people, and obviously they all know hundreds of other people, I don't even have a 'someone's nephew's driving instructor had it' connection.

Yes. Very unwell and hospitalised but now home and improving well. Other members of their friends/family tested positive but have mild or no symptoms.

Someone at Dhs work is in hospital with it

Yes. She got it from skiing. She's got it at the moment. High fever, cough and sore throat. She says she feels really rough.

She's at home. Not in hospital.

Yet

I know a person who’s passed away from it

Yes, a nurse who caught it in work.

Yes. I’m cabin crew and a handful of crew have started with it in the last week (bad flu so far, nobody hospitalised). Out of thousands of crew.

There has been a death at the hospital I work at. reported today in local newspaper but her died on Thursday. I expect to see another steep rise in deaths tomorrow. I guess for some they can't confirm it as a cause of death straight away.

Yes one person.
