    I’d say well-founded rather cautious concern .

    Happy travels daddyo ! X do be careful , carry hand sanitizer and Use it !

    Get the mask on / not because it will prevent infection on its own , but

    you won’t be touching your face !

    Btw. Delta (?) And British Airways (?) Have suspended all flights in-out of China .

    Get back in good health and in one piece Mr. Hysteria Button Daddy �� x
    Thank you Stephanie,

    And stop calling me daddyo, it's very distracting !

    I will try to provide a non hysterical view from where I'm located over the next few weeks.

    The World Health Organisation is having a meeting tomorrow afternoon, it will be interesting to hear what they say and recommend. Is anyone surprised where the virus came from, what do you expect when you eat raw bats and snakes, the Chinese eat some weird stuff

    Another reason to appreciate Clogher and Jonesboro market's here.

    It may be wet and windy .

    The authorities may have removed the counterfeit goods you could have bought in the past.

    But still we're not locked up in our homes. Well not yet until Brexit kicks in and they attempt to impose a border here again.

    That can never be allowed to happen here.

    Anyway sorry for going of topic Stephanie.

    On the plus side you can always come up to Jonesboro to buy your fireworks for the 4th of July!

    More than 14,000 cases confirmed ; over 300 dead .


    Thankfully not nearly as high mortality rate as other recent epidemics -now

    this one being a Pandemic - , it still has the ability / Capacity to cripple World Economy .


    China apologizing for ‘mishandling’ initial information :

    Wuhan Doctor who reported first cases in Dec In Wuhan had been chastised and penalized

    by the Chinese govt. and Party System - now he too lingers in hospital with same ailment .



    This thing jumps from human to human like Flu . Have it mutate to *for example* Ebola

    mortality — : what horror movies are made of !

    But even so , if it just stays as it is Now , : take out a Third / Half of the world-workforce

    on sick-leave !!? = Global meltdown .
    I do what I want. I cannot do otherwise.

    www.bbc.co.uk/news currently states
    "The death toll has now risen to 425 (423 in China), with more than 20,000 confirmed cases in 26 nations around the world."

    Talking to Chinese friends here (in Dublin) they say the figures are far worse than their government is reporting.

    BBC TV commented earlier that they have serious doubts now about the Chinese figures - The situation is much worse

    Eminem becomes the first celebrity to be diagnosed with Coronavirus.


    In a statement released by doctors, it has been revealed that his palms were sweaty, knees weak and arms were heavy.. He presented with vomit on his sweater already.. Initial testing has revealed it was mums spaghetti..

    The doctors continued to add:

    He’s nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready, but he simply keeps on forgetting.

    They added he could make a full recovery but also said: He better go capture this moment and hope it don’t pass him.

    The doctors have said they have a small window of opportunity to cure Eminem, to which Eminem replied saying:

    You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
    This opportunity comes once in a lifetime.

    Doctors finished by saying: Let’s hope he’s cured with one shot.

    More as we have it.
