How can we stop them?   Some will be returning from jobs abroad, others may be visiting or in College here.  Or to a funeral  .  We are aware and can take precautions.  However, we don't mix much with others and certainly don't shop in busy Centres so hopefully, won't pick up any Seasonal bugs anyway.

Like most 'bugs' this will be carried therefore passed long B4 symptoms show.  Some may be mildly affected which apparently is normal for this virus, others with compromised immune systems or on long-term medical treatment or cancer treatment may well be really ill.  The NHS is ready as well as it can be .............

? even Smallpox ?

Maybe a Germ escaped?

They say it has come from eating bats,have you seen the video of the woman eating a bat, hopefully this will stop the cruelty and
 the barbaric treatment of cats and dogs and the way they are killed,it's heartbreaking to see how these poor animals are treated
Maybe it's karma

Oh, that's extremely harsh jaycee.

There will be a lot of perfectly innocent people infected, who have not done any such thing.

I'd never heard of Wuhan till all this erupted. Interesting that it's the site of a biosafety lab housing some of the world's most deadly illnesses.

Can only find this in the Daily Wail.  Enough said really.  Selling papers is more important and any actual evidence of bad practice.

? even Smallpox ?

Only Russian and the US have the last remaining virus stocks.

Not sure who I trust less.

It was kept in Southampton 4 a while  .  In case it mutates.  There was fear that terrorists would get hold of samples  . Probably the US.  Actually 

We don't know how others live with regards foods.  FinL was a prisoner of War and would eat anything that he could catch, I didn't hear bats mentioned though.   I would expect that there isn't much on them even the fruit bats and I imagine them to be bitter to taste.

Korea doesn't have a good record with regards what they eat.  Or how they treat animals.  It's like the pebble dropped into a puddle, start educationing locally!

The French eat song birds, the Norwegians whales.  We eat shot game birds.  None of it very nice but I wouldn't wish harm on people for it.

[CLKD]

Ah but game birds are bred for the shoot. Been there, done that.

French take wild birds from the air.  Whales should be left in the sea ;-). - new thread?

Hello ladies

It seems that everything possible is being done to control the spread of the virus so we just have to sit tight and hope for the best.

If you want examples of animal cruelty you need look no further than factory farming. This not only affects chickens and turkeys but other livestock as well.  The capture and consumption of animals is big business world wide and every society has it's own customs and viruses jumping from animals to humans is nothing new sadly.

Wishing you all well ladies.
