This one will be fine, he was wearing his hi-viz vest, the magic talisman which protects drivers from all and every harm.

UK is poised to ban ALL people who've been to China. Almost 25,000 people have now been infected in the global outbreak and 493 have died of the infection. But the Government could soon take more dramatic steps and stop non-British people coming from China. The US, Australia and New Zealand are turning away non-citizens who have visited China within a fortnight. While Italy, Indonesia, Vietnam and Kazakhstan have completely banned all flights from China. Scores of passengers fleeing the coronavirus-hit country are pouring into Britain every day without being screened or tested for the deadly virus. Teams of doctors are at main UK airports to meet flights from China, with seven or eight doctors working shifts at Heathrow - but passengers have slammed screening efforts as 'pathetic' and revealed that they are being simply 'waved through' rather than properly checked for symptoms. Yesterday Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab sparked panic as he urged all 30,000 British nationals to to flee China to save themselves from the deadly disease. In trying to navigate how best to stop more potentially-contaminated passengers making their way into the UK, a government source said ministers were having to tread carefully to avoid 'p***ing off' the Chinese authorities. -yes, that's the most important thing, not pissing off the Chinese. All Hail your new masters!"At a 3% fatality rate we should expect at least 1,800,000 to die of coronavirus in the UK" www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-7968785/UK-ban-flights-China-block-foreign-citizens-entering.htmlWe should have stayed in the EU. They would have sorted it out for us. Best not listen to those who want to increase our stress levels so we catch a cold Foxy. Daily Mail, BBC etc...its all bollocks. (Oh...bugger..)

No not alright at all.
But some of the reporting is rather over the top don't you think ?
The vast majority of people contracting the virus (according to WHO) will make a full recovery, as would be the case with flu, apparently.
That's all.

Flu fatality rate varies year to year but often kills over half a million world wide.

Do we know the name of the new virus yet?
Apparently it will get one but they are trying to avoid any direct connections liable to cause idiot problems.
Like with swine flu where loads of pigs were destroyed before being able to be made into bacon when the virus was human-human transmitted.
Probably best not to call it "Chinese live bats flu" as it will cause a backlash against Chinese people and bats will never hear the end of it.

We keep getting suicides in my mum's side of the family it seems to be genetic youngest one was about 20. That was years ago. More recent ones have been older relatives with the exception of my cousin who was 50 which arguably is a bit too young to be dying.
