Aw kate no, hopefully it's just a 24hr bug. Have some hot drinks as hot as you can stand. Get some antiseptic lozenges like strepsils, let us know how you are x

When was the last time you left the house? . Do you think you caught it in a supermarket?.

Did you take your temperature? I was looking for the thermometer I think I have but I haven't found it yet.

Drink water, it's very important. And hot drinks. If you can eat, have some soup.

I think there are(and has been) a few strains if this virus.

Chances are imo most of us are immune or have had it earlier in december before it mutated...


I pray it don't mutate again.

The covid-19 was around in December , but we were not aware of it until the outbreak in January.

The problem is there's always been weird bugs and flu going around, but it makes you wonder as the covid-19 symptoms are very similar to other virus flu's .

Hopefully once you've had it then you're immune, or maybe some of us are already immune .

Either way precautions are important, and this social distancing needs to be taken seriously .

There are probably dozens of strains but that's normal, the variations between strains are usually small and being immune from one means being immune from all (or at least most) strains. If there's a major mutation, then it can be a different story. There are numerous measles strains for example but you only need the vaccine for "Measles A" and then you should be immune to all strains.


On a more positive note; most novel (new in humans) viruses become LESS severe in terms of symptoms / risk of death as they mutate over time. Viruses don't actually "want" the host to die - they want to exist as quietly as possible to spread as far as possible and live as long as possible in their host,so they become less severe as they adapt to human physiology.

They CAN mutate into something "worse" but its actually quite rare.

Ebola is pretty much the worst virus known to man and it looks like a cock 'n' balls.

Can't be that bad if it doesn't have the requisite sperm drops drawn in.

No some get a few droplets

Others get the Full Sneeze
which is the Killer

I'm surprised Wuhan has lifted the lockdown, I think it's too early !! . They had the most deaths !! .

the virus itself doesn't make me feel scared


the fact we got dumb idiotic governments and health authorities in europe and america does make me feel scared

|If you wear a mask for more than an hour the moisture on it from your breath makes at much more attractable to airborne virus particles than your naked face ever would be

gloves are pointless unless changed 5 times an hour

Masks are effective when worn by the INFECTED - this is a message that has never really sunk in. They catch coughs and sneezes and make it less likely that surfaces will become contaminated. They do little to nothing for healthy people and as you say if they become damp they can actually make things worse.

Gloves are pointless if your hands are in good condition and you always remember to wash them after you've been "out and about" before you touch your face or anything else. Also most people have no idea how to safely remove and dispose of gloves without getting whatever was on the glove on their hand anyway.

However if you have cuts, or dry/cracked skin on your hands like Parmy, then gloves are a very good idea.
