Originally posted by OwlHoot View PostOK, next question, to which I realise possibly nobody yet knows the answer:
Does catching and recovering from the L variant offer much subsequent protection against the naughtier one?
If so then might it not make sense to deliberately infect selected people, under controlled conditions, with the L version and enhance partial herd immunity that way? Although of course what nobody needs is to cop both variants at the same time!
What they have seen though, in a very few individuals, is those who have had the virus and recovered, have then had a subsequent flare up of the symptoms. A very very few individuals, but even so, probably suggests you don't want to get the virus intentionally. Bets to just be careful, keep washing those hands (were people not doing this anyway?) and stay away from kids and old people (no one needs to ask me twice to do this )I am what I drink, and I'm a bitter manComment

Originally posted by sasguru View PostI do feel a lot better already.
I didn't have a thermometer so don't know how hot I was.
Didn't feel any worse than a normal flu though. Slight headache.
Worst thing was the cough - doesn't let you rest.
Annoyed with lack of testing though - this could very well be a "normal" flu. So I could still be at risk of "real" CV19.
I just don't know.

It's more likely to be a cosmopolitan, sophisticated, man-of-the-world culler. Sounds like one of them has had a close shave alreadyWork in the public sector? Read the IR35 FAQ hereComment

Read the news.
No social distancing whatsoever.
This warm weekend may go down as the time the virus spread most in the UK pop.
Govt negligence in not locking down has been criminal, but this is the UK, people are too stupid to see it.
Whorty is about to be proved very wrong indeed.Last edited by sasguru; 22 March 2020, 16:38.Hard Brexit now!

Originally posted by billybiro View PostThis is what happens when, for the last 4 years of Brexit propaganda, you've conditioned the entire population to discount the "project fear" of experts.
The country was told a leave vote would result in immediate recession. I have more faith in a friend of mine who still believes Nibiru is coming. 2012 was supposed to be the peak of that. But that was still just the beginning and the government is still covering it up.
Still wheeling out these "experts" allows the rich to manipulate the poor and inequality to keep growing. I hope COV19 might reduce inequality - no doubt I will be disappointed.Comment
