It shocks me how many men don't wash their hands after using public urinals and very often after taking a dump - just straight out the door afterwards. Filthy animals.
Trouble is,  no matter how well you wash your hands if the guy in front of you hasn't what's the first thing you do ??, use the same door handle to get out of the bogs,  makes the whole thing a pointless exercise !!.

I wait for someone else to either walk in or walk out, then hold the door open with my foot. This can be an issue in some underused public conveniences, where you could wait hours or even days before someone else walks in.

It really doesn't. By the same logic, there's no point ever having a bath or shower because at some point you'll just get dirty again. Obviously at some point you will use your hands and they will come into contact with an unclean surface. The point is to keep washing your hands regularly to mitigate the chances of the virus spreading.

I might wear some disposable gloves to the game tomorrow.
Are we still likely to be frisked at the turnstiles?

No worries, I'm coming from Reading tomorrow where we had the first death and we've had loads of confirmed cases. Super spreader.

Seen this earlier....

Quote
Less than 0.5% of patients aged under 50 have died, according to the Chinese Centres of Disease Control.

However, that figure spikes rapidly to:

1.3% in their 50s
3.6% in their 60s
8% in their 70s
15% over 80
These are not the true death rates, as some patients still being treated may yet die and many mild cases are going unnoticed.

And those who were already sick

The death rate for people with no other health problems is 0.9%.

However, this rises to:

6% in people with high blood pressure
6% in people with long-term lung problems such as those caused by a lifetime of smoking
7% in people with diabetes
11% in people with cardiovascular disease

Obviously as this continues 1000s of businesses will suffer reduced revenue. As this is a football forum however, imagine the effects on lower league clubs if games were played behind closed doors. premier league etc dont need fans due to tv. would season ticket holders be given refunds? would you ask for it back if you couldn't watch again this season but knowing that the club would suffer huge financials?

clubs suffer in the summer without games but that can be forecasted.

Potentially could just make Ifollow available to everyone, possibly not going to get the same kind of revenue but could help
