    Not exactly true. I don’t believe it was their first case and they didn’t shoot him just because he had the virus. He was a government official who defied orders to stay in quarantine and went swimming at the public swimming baths.

    It’s not the way we punish people over here but I’m with Kim Jung Fatty on this one.

    So, you're for firing squad of people killing those with the disease , who don't take orders?

    Instead of yknow, just police force taking them to the quarantine zone.

    He was a government official who done something that could have spread the virus on a huge scale.

    That’s the way they deal with fools over there. The government official knew that. His actions could and may well have lead to the death of somebody else. **** him.

    I think they've announced about 16 cases. Still suspiciously low. Kazakhstan has a border with China and still no "official" cases, Yet the virus is in Europe, North and South America. It's almost as if some countries aren't reporting their cases.

    It wouldn't shock me to find that more conservative countries have massively played down their numbers.

    We're on the opposite end of the scale, hand sanitizer sold out everywhere and front page news everyday over 200 cases.

    The balance probably needs to be somewhere in the middle. Don't panic, but be sensible.

    100% in agreement.

    It's natural selection anyway. Needs to take its course just like any other flu. There's no cure for flu. There'll not be a cure for this version either.

    Has anyone thought the population crisis the world would have if there were no illnesses ? If cures were found for everything ? Could end up nobody dying of natural causes. Subsequently they would follow " world prescribed euthanasia rules" and mandatory check out on their 120th birthday.

    As for hand sanitisers.

    Look for hand sanitizer that has at least 60% alcohol in it. Some research has shown that hand sanitizer can actually increase your risk of some infections, such as norovirus, possibly by way of bacterial resistance. Hand sanitizer has also been shown to be less effective than hand-washing at preventing the flu.5 days ago

    Does hand sanitizer kill coronavirus? How it works and when ...

    According to the CDC, hand sanitizer is not as effective at killing germs as washing your hands with soap and water. The CDC says that washing your hands is a better tactic for removing certain viruses and bacteria, such as Cryptosporidium (causes diarrhea) and norovirus(stomach bugs).

    Part of the reason that hand sanitizer isn't as effective as washing your hands is that people often wipe their hands before the hand sanitizer dries completely. Also, if your hands are dirty or greasy, hand sanitizers may not work because they can't penetrate dirt and grease like soap can.

    Yesterdays Football.

    Players are told not to shake hands at the start of the game, just to walk past each other and give a 'friendly nod'.

    During at least one game I saw on MotD, a play brings an opposition player down.
    He is sent sprawling.
    The offender offers him a hand up, which is accepted, with smiles all round.

    Not an eyelid batted anywhere.

    Chelsea and Everton line up and walk past each other without shaking hands. What’s the point, just get on with it. Ridiculous <laugh>

    Show your wealth off by throwing a toilet roll on the pitch at a crap football match.

    It may instigate a pitch invasion to retrieve it..

    Did the grocery shopping yesterday and there was no toilet paper or tissues on the shelves at all at my local supermarket. Bloody ridiculous.

    :emoticon-0141-whew: not a great time to have any shares really. The supermarkets must think it's Christmas with people buying all this stuff they don't need.
