Poll have you avoided eating anywhere since the Chronavirus started

drunkmonkey

Trying to gauge the effects the virus has had on your habits..

frillyleaf

No. I wouldn’t fly to heavily affected regions eg China or Italy but it hasn’t changed where I would go or eat in Ireland.

Still waters

No changes to my habits yet anyway unless there are restrictions put in place i can't see myself making any changes either

Salary Negotiator

Made very little difference to my life so far.

Hands are cleaner but that’s about it.

biko

I've stopped eating bat soup

AndyBoBandy

Jesus, I'd love a Chinese tonight.

Beef in Black Bean Sauce, Boiled rice, and of course Prawn Crackers.

ChikiChiki

I have stopped taking Dublin Bus in the mornings and walk the 40 minutes each way to the office.

Not avoiding all shops but avoiding overly crowded bars/restaurants. Making judgement calls looking in the door.

Avoiding gyms also in favour of outdoor exercise.

Tuesday is my Russian Roulette day when I meet friends to watch Cheltenham.

I stopped nipping out to China for the weekend to enjoy the cuisine.

Lurching

It reminded me about Chinese Takeaways, so I had one last night.
Place was jammers.

I bring baby wipes and clean the bus cab before I drive.... Only change I've done....

Seen a other driver today with a mask on.....

Eating out or in has had no change.

Misleading poll choices. A bit like this:

I haven't went or ordered a Chinese but I haven't done that in two years anyway.

I also haven't been to a chippers but I'd only do that 3 or 4 times a year anyway.

So if I answered any option here, people would think it's a vote to changed behaviour even though I haven't.

I’m avoiding Eating Italian pu$$y.

DellyBelly

It's not I'm afraid of the actual food but it's the people who work in those places. They could be infected and spread it while preparing the food. Pity cause I love my local Italian

bladespin

Lost as to why it would stop you eating certain foods????

Those poll questions are making my eyes hurt.

What are you replacing it with

Deagol

What's a Chronavirus ? Is it some relative to the big news item at the minute - Covid19?

owlbethere

I've been growing my hair long for about 14 years. I usually wear it down. I don't have time for styling it and ponytails don't look great. I'm considering cutting it very short on case somebody coughs or sneeses on my back and the wind blows my containmained hair into my face.

This is it

It's not the options it's how they're phrased I'd imagine.

"I haven't went..."?

Seconding this. TBH I thought that post had to be a joke! Seriously OTT in my humble opinion.

It's a side effect of hearing about Covid-19, quite contagious too.

Sleeper12

We haven't changed yet but as the situation is going to mushroom in the next few weeks I can see myself avoiding the pub & restaurants for a few weeks. Trip to Peru in three weeks and we might or might not go. We'll decide a day or two before I think

Depends on if you're immunocompromised or elderly. I'm immunocompromised but concluded that I'm relatively because of my age group. If I pick something up, it likely won't hit me badly. But if I had something that affected my lungs, I'd be taking different routes to work.

Tired Gardener

Talk about over reacting. This is as daft as people running out and buying several loafs of bread when there is a storm. If your restaurant/take away of choice had such low hygiene that staff cough and or sneeze on the food, Covid-19 is the least of your worries.

Utterly ridiculous.

This is interesting, and with you being a bus driver your opinion here would be very welcome. Supposing things start to get really bad. If requested by your employer, and provided with what you needed to do it safely, would you and your colleagues use disposable wipes to wipe down/sanitize ALL the hand rails on the bus each time you reached the terminus?

I ask because I suspect this will be how it will spread - on public transport?

I'm not trying to put you on the spot here, just wondering if you think it's a runner. Cheers.


Apologies all, after re-reading my post, I realise it's off topic. Sorry about that, chiefs!

That’s a fair point however I didn’t get the impression that this was the case in the post I was referring to. The more vulnerable absolutely should take extra precautions within reason.

I am behaving the same way. I'll get coronavirus
