If the combined brain power of China, South Korea and Japan is struggling, a few old white guys and Duffy from Casualty don't have much hope either.
I can't see the virus surviving in Buxton, you need years of in-breeding to manage that.
Thousands of old people like me die every year from flu' and other viruses. Everyone accepts it, a few are upset but hey ho.
Bizarrely we see medical evidence across the world of the marvellous things physicians can do, yet when we get a new virus we haven't seen before we search out scapegoats in a manner reminiscent of the Witch-Finder General, find ourselves attracted to the notion of a germ species-hopping from bats or snakes in an obscure oriental market and conclude the best answer is The Eyam Solution - seal off the village and wait to die, or not, as the case may be.
A Pomeranian dog in Hong Kong may or may not have contracted the virus. And that makes a front page headline in one of today's papers. I think cancel Crufts, burn down Owlerton Greyhound Stadium and send all family pets to the kennels. As far as I can see we've all got to stop living, going anywhere and meeting other living creatures in order to avoid a 1% chance of dying if we contract the virus.
Now if a virus appears that is spread via the internet …….
And if you don't want to catch stuff steering clear of sick people at the Doc's or in Hospital seems like a good idea.
