Covid19 - reality check

Discussion in 'U.K.' started by Deleted member 157313, Mar 9, 2020.

  1. I mean seriously! What kind of world are we living in. It appears that some people( I use the word loosely) are buying up stocks of hand sanitiser and selling them at ridiculously inflated prices to the poor bastards that seem to think that their life will be over if they do not have this product in every room in the house, in their workplace, handbag or jacket pocket.

    Perspective people, perspective! A normally healthy person is not going to die if they catch this relatively mild in most cases virus. The world is not going to end! There is no need to stockpile soap, pasta or toilet paper.

    On seeing photos of empty supermarket shelves I despair. Normal life can quite happily go on right now. Don't buy into the scare mongering of some journalists ( another rather loosely used term) or social media pundits.

    Sure, be aware, but be aware also of your own situation and the likelyhood or not of contracting the virus and how it will probably affect you!

    I'm going to Bunnings to buy sandpaper for toilet paper, as Coles and Woolies are still out

    Has the added advantage that it will stop the Australian Cricket team from cheating

    Hehe. Yes it is bizarre. At least we're not panic buying guns like they are in the States at the moment.
