China Coronavirus

[Hound]

I think there needs to be more info put out to young people re long term effects.

My cousin in her mid 30s caught it. No prior health difficulties. Had a seriously bad dose for weeks. They were about to hospitalize when it eased. But then got worse again, breathing difficulties so in to hospital she went. Covid 19 completely gone but it has resulted in scarring on her lungs, causing respiratory issues. Apparently not uncommon.

Damage to the heart not uncommon too but may take longer to materialize as a problem.

And weren't there also blood clotting issues for some ?

Reading also this morning of a couple of Cruise ships being hit with COVID after restarting their season again. Why would anyone want to get on any vessel that contains groups of people in close proximity during the current pandemic??

I saw two cruise ships in Belfast yesterday and thought exactly the same thing.

[Rossfan]

Madness. Probably had paid and couldn't get a refund?

Repairs.

I'm nearly sure they are docked for re-fits.

That would make more sense.

I'm sure someone will be quick to describe them as idiots, but the odd thing is that there will be some incredibly bright people among these cruise passengers.

The problem with covid is that it hasn't been "real" enough, not so far anyway. Even the dumbest of our race have some competency in judging personal danger, otherwise there'd be legions dying every day from eating the wrong food, out of date food, crossing roads, fighting bears, watering the TV, etc.

And for every horror story like that described above by Hound, there is a Danielle DiCenso type rumour to counteract.

(By the way, I'm not supporting the rights for people to go on a cruise during a pandemic)

That would make more sense.

Yeah think there was four in total, probably Olsen cruise ships, think he still has some control on the ship repair part of the yard..

Barbican in Newcastle has shut (for a bit) - apparently a few workers with COVID.

What's the odds Ireland moves into Phase 4 later today?

Somehow I just don't see it going through....hope to be wrong of course.

Hope the 200 outdoor crowd limit goes to 500 whatever about the rest.

Very low chance of it happening imo
