Prepping For Pandemic ..... 10

[ItsNotJustTheFuckingFlu]

Just quickly starting new thread as @wheresmymoji is busy. Special thanks to @ofwarren for the updates and special thanks from to everyone posting useful info and being supportive.

NEW: Belgium reports 10 new cases of coronavirus, including the first known instance of local human-to-human transmission t.co/eUoE2b20hL

Have you noticed that when you type coronavirus now into google the box at the top has turned red and says SOS alert :(

itsnotjustflu oh yes... but also listing v controlled, sensible links about. Good thing too.

Have been researching alternatives to hand gel... you can still purchase travel soap and little sheets of soap in a container which you can add (bottled) water to.

Watching PMQs, Corbyn questioning Boris on sick pay during coronavirus outbreak. The answers aren't great.

if someone is looking for dettol spray and wear , I ordered some from the range today and they have some in stock.

Some Scotland info from the Guardian:

One patient is resident in the Grampian area, the second patient is resident in the Ayrshire area.

One patient has recently travelled to northern Italy and the other has had contact with a known positive case – but the Scottish government added that this contact was not with the first positive case confirmed in Scotland, a Tayside resident.

Any ones with a DP/Friends in the building trade selco have hand sanitizer in stock in some areas.

Germany's health minister says coronavirus "has become a global pandemic""

Talking of Scotland. I think, unlike the rest of the UK, they've declared it a notifiable disease. I'm sure I saw someone post about it on one of the CV threads.

I think the more people that wear masks, the less embarrassed others will feel about doing so. They clearly provide some protection or governments wouldn't be banning their export and public sales. I need to go to the sorting office to collect my essential oils. I really want to wear a mask but only have a few, which I'm saving for hospital trips or other risky situations.

Check that spray and wear from Dettol. I think it's antibacterial only. It doesnt mention viruses on the bottle.

Just back from Aldi and picked up some boxes of of pancake mix - reduced from 99p to 19p. I resisted the urge to buy more toilet rolls, the twitchy feeling is strong!

I’ve just seen my neighbour who I spotted on Facebook was in Italy until yesterday. She tried to stroke my dog so I told her my dog bites and isn’t safe to touch

My dog, the sweetest little frenchie who adores cuddles, then barked at her.

Even my dog is on it 😂

NEW: Netherlands reports 15 new cases of coronavirus, taking country's total to 38 t.co/eUoE2b20hL

@NatoPMT can't say I blame you! Good doggy

Part of me says it's the last concert I might get to see. Impossible choices.

Come on Tunbridge You mean its the last concert you might get to see for the next six months or so. No great hardship. Not an impossible choice at all.

I realise it's a large amount but could share with others. Just to add really grateful to everyone that posts here.

Wow that's one well trained dog!

Isn't this like the 2nd or 3rd country to close all schools now once the virus takes hold? @ofwarren
I don't believe the UK wont do the same

Can anyone tell me if rubbing alcohol is the same as surgical spirit?

Just 53 cases now. Whilst I really wish this would all go away the slow rise is strangely frustrating. I just want it all over and done with.

@ofwarren spray and wear has citric acid, ethanol , isopropanol . Is it effective?

Public Health England are advertising for call centre staff to advise on corona virus.
