How serious is this?!

How serious is Coronovirus? Is this going to get bad in the UK?

Um. Have you been living under a rock?

Fuxake. I’ve turned the channel too soon. I was looking for Episode Two: Do Bears Shit In Woods.

Ignore the arseholes.

Yes, it's going to get serious. It's not just hype.

Yes it's not just flue

Is it possible to block a whole topic on here? Please?

Yes it is. Although why you'd not want to be well informed about the biggest crisis we've faced in years is a mystery to me.

No idea how to block it though, sorry,

It's ok OP, you are not the only one. There is someone on another thread asking if she and her kids should invite all their friends over for a Corona virus party like you would chucked pox so they can help build herd immunity Not sure how they are planning on finding a volunteer who has virus or if they would be up for letting a group of random children lick them,

*Chicken pox

It’s also not just flu

It's not serious according to my neighbour who I was suggesting because of her health issues, should be self isolating, I was told 'don't be ridiculous it's just like a bad cold and stop going on about it, it's boring.'

You sound as clued up as her

@blinkowl I don’t need scaremongering on Mumsnet to be well informed.

It is serious as we have no Immunity.
If you read the threads you will find that all sahms children are more at risk than others.
That people with genuine health risks to their or their families health are unsure.
Lots of teachers are worried about seeing their pupils in primary scho
More teachers of secondary pupils are worried about getting GCSE and A level pupils through their exams.
No NHS workers are saying they're not going in to work (and know they will get the virus at some stage)
The elderly will be more resilient and self isolate.
All those saying they will keep their children off school will last isolating them for 2 weeks (who wouldn't) and then be out and about with their little super spreaders.
All we can do is our best, don't criticise the official wisdom,if you're personal circumstances are different to the norm take responsibility.

@FeeFee382 Eh?? Has your TV been tuned in to CBeebies for the last few weeks?

People probably want to block the whole Coronavirus topic because it is full of twatty threads like this. MN needs to sort the wheat from the chaff, an impossible task I know. Shame as a few quite informative threads get lost in all this other shit.

@FeeFee382 Where have you been?

Take some time & self responsibility and educate yourself. There isn’t much support or Consistent guidance from Government.

From what I have just read on Sky news there will now be daily televised updates from No 10

Headline news in July 2009

Swine flu could kill 65,000 in UK, warns chief medical officer

@MaomiMak exactly why I am asking!

Jesus, people on here are horrible!!!!!
