      Thank you @Fat Controller for a very good post. Well worth a read.

          Portugal has closed all schools till 9 April and the University of Algarve has closed till 27 March. 1,000 doctors have responded to be 'on call' backing the SNS/NHS, 80 nurses have agreed to man the emergency hotline. Portugal has 78 cases (5 in Algarve from the mother/daughter incident), less than the deaths already recorded in Spain.
          I am keeping at home but have to go to the doctor on Tuesday for driving license renewal. :hate-shocked:

            Instead, you quickly grabbed the tubs, clearing every corner of the shelf and ran home with the haul? :heehee: Keep it in the freezer for me please, we are on our way!

              After the SARS outbreak was traced back to these markets in China, the WHO told China that these markets needed to be closed down.
              Did they listen - clearly not.

              IMO China should face some sort of legal and or financial consequences for the current CV outbreak. Which would have been avoided IF they had followed the advice and closed down the markets.

                You'll need to bring a portable freezer or fridge. Otherwise you may have to eat all of it in one go. Just in case, I'll let you have a free bog roll as well. :scratch:

                        That's the wrong equation, FC:dunno::wallbanging: The percentages of deaths ratio is worked out against the number of people who have tested positive for Covid 19, not the entire population of the country involved.:dunno:
