my sister, whose a nurse, has a tight chest and minor cough.
it's most likely to be pollen induced asthma. But because she a community nurse that visits old people she has been told to self isolate. this leaves 2 on the ground nurses out of 15.
Tests that are fast and effective are needed asap for NHS key workers so they can do the right thing in isolation terms. she could be back at work tomorrow if they did

Did our food shop earlier. Everyone keeping a respectable distance. Queues were full of people standing far apart. Everyone very sensible. Maybe it's just Swindon?

To be fair most were being sensible. Some of the staff, worryingly seem the most oblivious

A very close friend has now come down as confirmed with it, luckily I haven't seen her for about 4 weeks.
Shes luckily fairly fit and healthy so it shouldnt be a problem, but the net is closing in on so many people who are vulnerable, she works as a driver for special needs and disabled children, that does not bode well for so many high risk people.

I saw this view fom the OU regarding when the virus may have hit the UK posted elsewhere today and brought this to mind.
My son who is 42 lives and works in London and commutes on the tube every day. In the middle of January he came down with a hacking cough, a very tight chest (which left him breathless) and lasted a week. In in his words it was the worst feeling being ill than he had ever experienced before. At the same time two other people in his office suffered very similar illnesses. With hindsight it could well have been flu and the only way to know if it was Coronavirus is that he gets tested to find out, which is a bit unlikely given the current situation.
I experienced similar having come back from Spain between Xmas and NY. I am vulnerable to such infections but this one was much worse. On reflection I had all the symptoms. I hope it ain't all my fault!

Meanwhile, in Bangkok: I expect a lot of the Bangkok population have head for the hills (paddy fields) by now. Taking the lurgy with them, no doubt.

Yep had this locally in Swindon and family and a number of friends also. So what was this? I had the flu jab as well!

They left to Balmoral yesterday, rather ignoring the guidance about people not fleeing for remote parts of Scotland...
