who are BNO news anyway? Are they legit or just another fake news internet 'news' desk?

They are reputable, were on the ball with this and reporting

People have gone utterly mad. Decided to check Tesco's home delivery slots... nothing before next Wednesday and the stocks will be gone by then. Dublin has gone post apocalyptic already. Madness!

They need to put Nancy Pelosi somewhere safe and we can cross our fingers that Pence and Trump will be out of action for a while .

FFS, it doesn't take a ****ing genius to see where it was going after where China ended up start of last month.

As soon as it landed in Europe, the EU leaders should have already been planning to shut down the EU, its only put off the inevitable.

Anyway, theres no point arguing about this ****, we all need to work together now with respect for each other and stop the worst from happening.

we need social cohesion.

The irony!

We Italians thought the same when the first case showed up, or the second, or the 50th... look where we are now.
So please, don't try to be braver or smarter than us. Anticipate it, or you'll find yourselves in the same mud we are in now.
I hope others can learn from what we didn't do.

See some of my other posts.

I was being sarcastic

Well I managed to aquire some toilet roll. Good job as it was a close call getting to the jacks. Doubt anyone of these fools who bought all the bog roll would be concerned about my soiled undergarments if tragedy struck..

Reading the actual research papers coming out of China and elsewhere - as opposed to the summaries elsewhere - experience teaching statistics and epidemiology in university, being a Consultant in the Irish healthcare system with 30 some years of medicine and hospitals behind me and yes, some extrapolation because it isn’t like they’ve done randomised controlled trials on all this stuff.

If I’m doubt feel free to look at what I was called insane for posting ten days ago and where we are now. I’ve been the first person to say a number of things which have come to pass.

In my day job I don’t argue with patients. It is my job to present them the facts, the research etc, leaven it with my own clinical experience and understanding of how research interacts with the real world and then allow them to make their own informed choices.

I’m TRYING to inform people here. If you choose to disbelieve this then that’s fine. I believe I have an ethical and moral obligation to try to inform at this time. I am not, however, going to argue or descend into justifying everything I say to everyone who wants to nitpick it.

You’ll believe what you want to. And now lunch is over and I need to go treat patients.

I wasn't nitpicking - just pointing out that what you are saying differs in tone from almost all government and health organisation pronouncements to date.. That isn't to say that you are wrong. Don't be so sensitive.

I don't choose to disbelieve anything.

I was just in my village shop, they have towers of Bog roll and all sorts of food, like nothing ever happened. If you need anything, look very local, chances are they have everything.

I supposed to fly out to Buenos Aires tomorrow. Also debating whether to go now. Are there restrictions where you are?

I was in Argentina myself last weekend and there is no restrictions or anything here in Brazil, hand sanitizer is common but face-masks I only seen in Sao Paulo airport. Life continues as normal without concern, I'm afraid it could be another Italy in the making. News coming out of the Philippines an equally hot country suggests the heat is not going to stop this virus.



How long is your trip to Argentina for? I am here 10 days with another 21 days left to run and I am in a dilemma whether to evacuate home or tough it out. The paranoia and worrying about the situation at home is really ruining my enjoyment of the trip however.

Sorry about that, but we have to admit that following the thread is getting an impossible task.
Apologize

Anyway, my advice is still good, do whatever you can to prevent the spread, and if you can, please anticipate your government's decisions.
You could use us as a template, and try to improve it.
