    I think that says a lot more about the respondents of the survey than it does about the beer brand.

          Apparently there has been a run on people booking cheap holidays, I can see they are not that bothered by the virus.
          But if it does strike who wants to spend two weeks locked in a hotel room.

          It strikes me its not the virus that is the main problem.
          Its the stupid idea that they can contain it that is causing the real problems.

                Is anyone else getting fed up with this?
                It strikes me that unless they close all airports and all sea ports , (which is not going to happen) they are just making stupid noises, the virus is out there and NOT under control.

                I'd like to hear some real and proper info on how bad it is, if you are reasonably fit, how many people have survived it and how long you feel ill with it.

                In short, how bad a virus is it, actually.

                All we keep hearing is how many people have been infected, along with the death toll.
                I'm just wondering which is worse, the virus or the measures they are taking to "contain" it, which dont seem to be working anyway.

                  I've been singing happy birthday quite a lot, they say it helps ward off the virus:biggrin:

                  And I've asked my boss if I can work from home, apparently that is a good idea, Not sure how I get the bench and all the machinery at my place but i'm working on it.

                  Just wondering what other really good ideas they might come up with.:lunapic 130165696578242 5:

                    I'm working on a method of sterilising the virus in areas other than my hands etc that I can wash. Working on the basis that the majority of hand gels are alcohol based, I am upping my consumption of beer.
