The worst was Norovirus. Grandaughter got it gave it to mum, wife went to help them and got it. She came back and gave it to us. We all lost a complete week. Moral is, send wife don't let her come back !. Norovirus is the worst thing I have ever experienced. It is no fun to be sitting on the pan and throwing up into the bath at the same time whilst two others are fighting for the pan and the bath all at the same time. Or rolling about on the kitchen floor in agony and a cold sweat at 3 am. An illness you'd definitely wish on your worst enemy. Colds = vitamin C. Apple or Orange juice daily. Wife brought that home the other week, i was fuming...how inconsiderate. Week was a write off. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Meece 1,957 Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 (edited) I know that this virus has killed over 1000 people but I just watched the local BBC news and the reporters and editors need to be wheeled in and given a serious word in their ear. What a load of shallow sensationalist crud. Only two people have died outside of China and about 46,000 people in total have been infected. Mostly when China . I don't know how many people die each year through normal flu ect but the people who have died from this outbrake have mainly been old and with other health problems. Some of the General public were going a bit paranoid and saying that they weren't going back to the doctors surgery because they might get it. Masks do not stop this. You have to breathe. Keeping clean and washing your hands is far more effective. Bog door handles, shopping trolley handles anything can transmit the virus spores that's why a lot of places have the alcohol hand wipe liquid. Back when the so called Spanish Flu killed between 50--100 million people the only place that didnt suffer were islands that completely banned anyone from landing on the islands. With modern transport and the population density , IF we ever get an aggressive pandemic the death toll , panic and civil unrest could be unreal and make mad max like toy story. This is where the prepers get so paranoid about things. Edited February 11, 2020 by Meece 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You know how bad it is, ( the muscle pain, the cold sweats, the rots and voms, the strained muscles and the complete draining of strength for at least a couple of weeks) still I believe that if you've had it you are sort of immune for a while.... until a new strain comes along. When I went back to work they all kept away from me for some time. That was quite good. and I'm sure that you WOULD wish it on your worst enemy Ps there is a program about the Spanish Flu on BBC 2 now time 23.35 Edited February 11, 2020 by Meece 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think that its got to be something to do with the fact that they are closely linked genetically with us that we are susceptible to their version of the virus that they are carrying. Like they say " the tiģhter the knit the closer The fit." The program about the Spanish Flu last night was very interesting. We know so much more now about viruses and how they work that a serious aggressive pathogen like the Spanish flue wouldn't have it all it's own way but it would still take a lot especially in crowded places like refugee camps or poor countries with rural populations similar situation to the Ebola outbreak in Africa last year..Crowded Refugee camps with poor santation ànd/ or poor education and weird cultural beliefs would be a da gerous breeding ground. These viruses act like an alien being in that they become less dangerous when they establish themselves in our bodies. A bit like, if you kill the hand that feeds you, you are killing yourself. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
