    A tidal wave of infection not seen since 1918 is fast approaching.

    A wave so destructive it’s hunger for new hosts and the unprepared is unquenchable...

    A virus with no cure or conscience.

    A problem that closes City’s and kills for fun..

    But let’s call it flu eh...

    It allegedly was Spanish...

    In cosmic terms a corona is a plasma.

    Will this particular corona turn into a universal human plasma catastrophy ?

    trying not to get swept along with the hysteria over this virus at the moment. Although I do believe we should take it serious and follow WHO / government advice , as it may become a pandemic. But as was pointed out to me recently at the minute it’s claimed the same number of victims in this country as Barrymores swimming pool.

    Apparently this virus attacks the respiratory system causing pneumonia and can damage other organs of the body in certain age groups . Looking at the number of infections it’s obviously more contagious than our annual influenza and Scientists are still trying to fathom it out?

    They can’t wash their hands very often in Italy, they’ve got about 7,500 confirmed cases now.

    What an idiotic response to a fairly serious situation!!! The kid had coronavirus ,explained how it worked on him and the effects it had on him,yet you label it pathetic? You really need to engage your brain before you allow your belly to rumble.

    Really? I’m hoping we’re going to get a report of every cancer death constantly from all round the world.
    It is what it is. A lot of old uns die from pneumonia. Mother Nature at work here. Or aliens obviously

    Downsize your home while the going's good - before tomorrow that means.
    Buy low a couple of months or so later.
    Don't you just love it ?

    Bridlington amusement arcade mocks coronavirus panic by filling its grabber machine with toilet roll
    Eddy Chapman has been baffled by terrified shoppers clearing supermarket shelves
    An amusement arcade hopes to slow down panic buyers by making a toilet roll the star prize on their 30p-a-go grabber machine.

    Like most of Britain, Eddy Chapman has been baffled by terrified shoppers clearing supermarket shelves in the wake of the coronavirus crisis.

    And now he’s come up with genius plan to halt the hoarding at Chapman's Fundland amusement arcade in Bridlington.

    Eddy’s Maxx Grab machine has had its plush toys replaced with lavatory paper and punters are queueing up to spend 30 pennies.

    The 34-year-old said his idea was a way to spread some cheer in these worrying times and he hopes his customers will see the funny side.

    He said: “I think all this panic buying of toilet roll has been loo-dicrous, and so came up with this idea to hopefully get people to calm down.

    “It’s 30p a go and we’ve replaced the plush toys in the machine with the loo paper, it’s not quilted or anything, just bog standard.

    “It’s just a bit of fun which is what coming to seaside towns like Bridlington is all about, I think people need to relax a little and stop panic buying.”

    The government last week urged calm as it emerged some supermarkets were warning of shortages of drugs, hand sanitiser and bizarrely toilet roll.
