Coronavirus - is enough being done to contain it?

A positive is that Chelsea Football Club are offering free accommodation to all NHS staff working in London.

Pret a Manger are giving free drinks to all NHS workers and 50% off everything else.

And I'm finding it odd see Prime Minister Question Time today.

The whips have agreed that only members who have questions to put to the PM should enter the house. And that they should sit apart from each other.

Sainsburys are opening there doors tomorrow morning for the first hour for the elderly only plus they are closing there counters and cafes so they can get more food on the shelves

COV-19 you gone to far !!! Eurovision is off !!

Reports from China says that a new Japanese drug for influenza appears to be effective on Corona virus.
There has been a trail of the drug on 340 patients in China.

After taking the drug the patients who had already tested positive for the drug, then tested negative after 4 days after the trial.

But in Japan they say that they have given the drug to patients. They say that it doesn't seem to work so well on people with sever symptons, and when the virus has already multipied.

The drug is Favipiravir, also known as Avigan, is active against a range of illnesses, including influenza strains, yellow fever, Ebola and foot-and-mouth disease.
