And in a supermarket, even with limited number of shoppers, what happens? I suggest there could be at the very least a shopper every five minutes. (I thought that on hard surfaces they could last at least 72 hours, possible considerably longer.)

But that didn't get rid of the existing government in total. Let us see what they do over the weekend.

Why have so few in the UK recovered? What is happening to the statistics? Just 192. Far fewer than most other listed countries (except those with few confirmed cases). Yet we have Hancock, Dorries, Osborne (Kate), Russell-Moyle, Johnson, and probably others in a set of just over 650...

I suspect every country in the world with a reasonable level of science will be looking at the current state and diving in so they are at the front for next time. Of course, most will fail. What makes UK likely to win? There could be quite some mileage in looking at dual purpose production...

Whilst I agree with the need, and the sentiment, I'm not sure I could face a GE campaign...

I suspect that all human viral emissions are somewhat directional. Yesterday some of the sneeze/cough research video was on TV and it appeared to approximate quite a narrow cone. But what happens at 1 metres, 2 metres, 6 metres or more? If the viral particles fall to the ground, then the ground...

Another question - undertakers have been given some advice on covering faces before moving bodies. But just how long could they remain infectious? (Which is really to question how fast cyanide pills would work.)

It is all very well people blaming Cheltenham, but they still chose to go despite the evidence that was even then appearing. Even were I interested in the geegees, I'd have given it a miss: Cheltenham faces criticism after racegoers suffer Covid-19 symptoms Jockey Club insists decision to...

Pontefract might have the answer! Another compound from herbal remedies recruited to control COVID-19 is diammonium glycyrrhizinate, an extract of liquorice roots. Liquorice, Glycyrrhiza glabra, has long been employed against coughs and colds as well as to settle disturbed digestion, while...

Nice chap. Wonder if they can find a cell with suitable cellmates? A man who coughed on a police officer and claimed to have coronavirus has been jailed for six months. Adam Lewis, 55, told the officer: "I am Covid and I am going to cough in your face and you will get it." The Met said the...

Managing masks: 9 thoughts on “COVID-19 – do masks help?” Mister Heiss April 2, 2020 at 3:41 pm Would steam-ironing a cloth mask be adequate to kill any coronavirus on them? Might be an awful lot quicker and easier than washing every time – so long as what they are made from can take it...

Question: What is Boots? Is it the French company Fareva who bought Boots' manufacturing? Or Walgreen Boots Alliance which owns the shops? Hancock is outlining his five-pillar strategy: The first pillar is swab testing in PHE labs and within NHS hospitals, to find out if you already have the...

Some people might laugh and snigger at this story. I couldn't possible comment on such childish behaviour. BUT, it is awful that he has wasted so much fighting against HMRC. I wonder how much it has cost us to stop him getting away without paying? Arron Banks fails to use European laws to...

There is some conflicting evidence. Superficially, it looks like a no-brainer. But when you start considering the need to replace, dispose, sanitise, whatever, it becomes less clear. However, yes, I am persuaded that so long as the right advice is both given and followed, it is very likely a...

I saw many people say 7 days was inadequate for Johnson. For the sake of others, rather than himself. Boris Johnson still has Covid-19 symptoms and may stay in isolation PM has been self-isolating at No 11 for six days and still has mild symptoms

The intended increase of contactless limit to £45 has not happened. At least in Aldi. Staff know and were expecting it to happen. :(

The fact that our purported PM seems to have passed it on would appear to be supporting evidence.

Feed the fishes? Replenish our North Sea stocks.

Isn't this where JCB should come in? Rather than making ventilators (or not, as the case may be).
