I was in the PO and was thinking about sneezing but stifled it as i felt a little paranoid.

Have you felt this?

[bitontheslide]

i'm just paranoid about a tickle in my throat or a stray sneeze ... wherever i am. The trusty thermometer has come to the rescue on several occasions

[LeatherTrumpet]

yes the TL has her thermo out

Nobody with any respect for other humans is going out in public, just straight to and from work/buying essentials.

[smudgie]

No, as I don’t go out in public.
ALL tests, appointments at hospital, doctors and hospice are cancelled, all updates by telephone for the foreseeable.
I must be one of the few that are looking forward to total isolation

Yes. I have given up my social activities. The only thing I am going out for is food shopping. Gonna be climbing the walls soon

[Jordan.]

Yes I sneezed at work today and could feel the burning judgement

But you can't hold in a cough or sneeze , aslong as you cover your face it isn't so bad .

Bit is it going to get to the stage where people are too scared to go on the bus, to supermarket etc .

[Strictly Jake]

Yep I keep needing to suppress my cough pretty sure its only hayfever but when I was coughing in the bus I got a lot of stares

[Smithy]

No it’s a fun game, cough and see the looks you get

Always a positive.
Plus, if the schools shut down my daughter is coming up to share the isolation with me.

[Toy Soldier]

I cleared my throat in the co-op and suddenly felt very self-aware. No one was around though.

[Josy]

Nope

[Kizzy]

I haven't as yet thankfully! I have however bawled a couple of people out for coughing and sneezing around me without putting their hand over their mouth! Dirty basts ...

Work has a new policy whereby if you think someone is ill and putting you and others at risk, you can ask for them to be removed from site and they have to self isolate for 7 days.
