This virus has had a great impact for us all in some form.
Helpful hints:
DO NOT use too much hand sanitizer.. this takes off much of your hands natural protectants..
Use your own bags when going to stores..
Paper towel stockage..can be more harm than good in many cases..these tossed in a bin..if u have virus will sit in bins..when disgarded ur pick up of trash virus still be in trucks. Better to use wash clothes..towels..can wash and sterilize in ur machines.
Going in and out of ur home each day just wipe down door knobs.
Mail if your carrier uses gloves ok. If not..try to use a glove to open.
Telling us to be careful of money exchanges.
Gas pumps and pump own use a glove.
Pharmacy..well people going in that may need supplies due to basic colds or allergies. Take your supplies from the back of a shelf..not front where many may handle to read directions so forth.
Grocery store supplies as well..cans from back..eggs from bottom. Milk from back. Remember delivery personnel who bring in products from a truck who travel from different places.
Carry some wipes with you to wash hands if stores dont have displays.
Wash handles on carts when shop. Many stores are supplying wipes on obtaining a cart here.
Go thru automatic doors more..not hand open ones.
These are just some minor things to think of.
Be safe..well..

12 March, 2020 at 9:47 pm #1130792On Any Questions on Radio 4, eminent microbiologist Professor Hugh Pennington – former president of the Society for General Microbiology – told listeners that the government’s advice on handwashing is going to be ineffective in slowing the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus. The professor said that he looked forward to a plunge in the number of food-poisoning cases as a result of more frequent hand-washing, but COVID-19 is primarily spread by people breathing in droplets breathed out by an infected person.
The professor also states-
“People who are elderly, people who have got pre-existing lung disease, other chronic conditions, are the ones who have been harder hit, and we know that from the data that has been published since the beginning of the year. The big difference between this virus and flu is that for flu we have a vaccine, or a series of vaccine, and we have antivirals as well, which we don’t have for this virus yet.
They are working hard to get a vaccine and they are working hard to see if there are any drugs out there that might be able to treat. How long the vaccine will take to develop, and there will probably be more than one, is very difficult to say. There is a fair amount of optimism that we will have it quite soon.
I would be slightly, not pessimistic because they will get a vaccine, but how long it will take to get it checked for safety, and how long it will take to get it tested for how effective it is, is another matter. And then of course you’ve got to make it and you’ve got to sell it.”
Stay safe out there people, follow common-sense advice and stockpile at least 200 rolls of toilet paper, I recommend 3 ply and buy at least 450 packs of noodles, my personal preference is chicken.

22 March, 2020 at 2:06 am #1130866trump said that people are dying that have never died before
Good luck America!
Maybe your supersized macdonalds and obesity crisis will be enough to combat it all.
Or maybe the lying twat of a country that is the USA will lie through their teeth like so many countries are and play down the amount infected and deaths.
The only honest country is Italy. Its not that they have more cases or deaths they are just being honest about it.
And if you really believe that you are safe then you are fooling yourselves.
Donald trump is NEVER going to admit the truth so disregard anything he says.
Italy is not the worst case scenario its the HONEST scenario.
Their figures are honest do not believe that anyone elses are.
22 March, 2020 at 1:29 pm #1130870Maybe u should understand the English language better as the President has been on every day reporting this is very serious here and we at war with this. Our President has been working relentlessly for American people in Helping Us first. He working on helping financial as well and the economical down fall for us all..WE are the greatest Country in the World always helping others. This nation in times of hardship come together as one for the people..not only by the leader. He has been HONEST as when first started WE TOO HAD DIFFICULTY GET KITS. WE ALL FEEL here for Italy. Right now it about saving life..not statistics on death toll. ACTIONS NOT REACTIONS. WE HAVE BEST DOCTORS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD LIVING HERE AND ABROAD UNITED TO FIND A FAST CURE AND STOP THE FAST VIRUS NOT ONLY FOR US BUT FOR EVERY HUMAN LIFE. And it is also reported every STATE IN U.S.A. HAS VIRUS AND ALL GETTING HIT HARD NOW.
So say what u will. The President and people already aware how bad this is. U seriously think we all not worry about death..spread..loved ones. How to feed and work. Disruptive life STYLE just like it is in all Countries. PANIC is one thing our President and leaders trying to avoid. ACTION IS FOCUSED ON STOPPING SPREAD. NOT REPORTING DEATH NUMBERS WHICH PROVIDES FEAR TOO.
I hope your Country, all Countries, and all its people as well unite together. Take care of each other and stop this petty b.s. as they hate Trump. Cling on his every word and just spew ridiculous comments at this time. Stay the course. Social distance. Clean and follow a plan so u stay alive to kick ass next round on something else to complain about regarding our President.
