    Almost half of the British people are immune

    It would not surprise me since we have experienced many types of flu over the years - surely this would have been the first place to look for a vaccine for any similar disease?

    The article is 3 years old.

    It isn't flu season. Why would anyone be worried about flu right now?

    And if it was the flu season, the only people really concerned are those classed as vulnerable. Those who automatically qualify for a free jab. Though if you're that bothered, you can just pop along to a pharmacy and buy one.

    That's very interesting but not necessarily what were looking for, come back in a few years.

    This from someone who claims to have his finger on the pulse, better informed than most thanks to his wide circle of contacts, who claims to have better understanding of facts and statistics, yet trots out an old article which has no bearing on the current epidemic.

    How many times do you have to be told, this damned virus isn't flu, people are dying, or is this just "normal" from any "flu".

    Of course you know better than all countries who have put in place restrictions and increased capacity for critical care, even your hero Trump who has talked the epidemic down at every step, is being proved totally wrong, wake up, deaths known to be due to covid-19 have now passed the 1000 in the UK, but of course it will all be gone ny Easter.

    Coronavirus: Linda Lusardi's husband says she's at 'death's door' after hospitalisation

    Former Page 3 girl Linda Lusardi was admitted to hospital on Friday after developing coronavirus symptoms. Her husband Sam Kane has since tested positive

    Today he posted an update on Facebook expressing his heartache as the bug has taken his wife to "death's door".

    He also begged Brits to stop ignoring government advice and take the outbreak seriously.

    Sam wrote: "I can’t stress enough that this is not ‘just a flu bug’. I’ve watched this take my girl to death’s door.

    "I’ve felt it take me there. It’s a cruel, vile, remorseless, relentless, dark sickness. It was like three hands. One that’s strangling you.

    "One pushing your face down as it does. The other one ripping your heart out of your chest and it just doesn’t stop... for days.

    "You’re totally helpless and in its grasp.
    It’s nothing like flu.

    "Please stop going out. Passing this around will mean it just takes longer till we’re back to normal.


    "Please stay safe people. Two weeks away from anyone else outside your family should see this gone. It’s that simple. Please stay in.

    So, Said, what others methods have you been using to encourage gruesome death upon people, apart from your wilful little campaign of misinformation on this Forum?

    As you're hell-bent on trying to further the virus spread, you can't be just limiting yourself to betting all your chips on your scummy work here...

    Can you?

    Even an embittered, below average intelligence, failure at life such as yourself wouldn't be that depth of idiot, would he?

    It IS the main flu season! There are a number of strains out at present, along with Brochitis, Tonsillitus, Stomach bugs etc., The main season runs from November to March!

    No point in having any flu jab for every year a new strain has evolved and the flu jab does not protect anyone contracting a new strain. Last year in Southport, hundreds of people contracted flu which left them with a cough lasting more than six weeks or more. So far, no-one in Southport has contracted, or died from the new virus - a link perhaps?

    Only a moron can be so arrogant as to publicly illustrate his ignorance as you have done on so many occasions. Even medical experts have denounced the media as being totally irresponsible - yet you appear to subscribe to, and absorb every word written by journalists clinging to a tenuous career. As Mr T's catch phrase says 'Pity the Poor Fool'
    Jump off your superior high horse and delve a bit deeper than surface reports. The greater majority of the public do not post on this site, so unless you are aware of the situation in general you are highly unlikely to realise what is being discussed in public. This is obvious from your constant written diarrhoea.
    Oh, yes - we are supposed to be distancing ourselves, and not socialising etc., but we are all capable of maintaining the given advice while also having discussions. Don't annoy me by being so thick!

    Well there we are then.

    There isn't a huge problem in Seftons reported numbers SO FAR but its a ghastly thing to gamble with.

    I'm happy to restrict myself for one elderly person to have a few more years.

    Hopefully we will be lucky and it will subside quicker than projected.

    Chinas vile regime has shown it can be limited.

    Oh FFS, you idiot. Coronavirus is NOT flu. What is wrong with you. It isn't f***ing flu. How many times do you need telling?

    It isn't the main flu season. There is no link to flu. Other than it is a virus.

    I don't care what every quack, every so-called expert that crawls from under a rock at an opportunity for their own half-arsed theories says. If the WHO says it is flu, then it is flu. If not, it isn't.

    Sigh! OK! We are told that the global outbreak originated as the Chinese returned after their New Year celebrations, yes?

    Your point is????

    Chinese returning after their new year is certainly part of the reason for spread, but not entirely, by a long way, travellers of all types have returned to their homes carrying the virus, the problem from the outset has been people already infected and carrying the virus, but showing no symptoms until later.

    Which is the reason for the need for distancing and as much isolation as possible, not surprisingly the conspiracy theorists are out in force, collecting the easily lead.

    The first cases reported all focussed on the Chinese returning to various countries after the Chinese New Year. UK, Spain, Italy,etc., The incubation period of this new virus is around 11/14 days - ie you can have the virus without showing any signs of it for up to fourteen days. The outbreak which occurred in Italy happened on the 27th January, in Spain it occurred on 29th January as it did in the UK. The Chinese New Year is a very special occasion for the Chinese people, even under their very strict regime - they are allowed 7 days of celebration. The Chinese New Year started this year on the 25th January and lasted until 2nd February. The Chinese people would not have been travelling back until then - AFTER THE OUTBREAK HAD STARTED GLOBALLY!
