"Today, the Times are reporting the preparations being made to deal with the server outbreak of the virus in Britain To include the closure of schools and restricting moment around the country. As reported on the BBC news." And hotel in Tenerife places in lock down. How will this affect the decisions on those of you who holiday there. | |||

"Today, the Times are reporting the preparations being made to deal with the server outbreak of the virus in Britain To include the closure of schools and restricting moment around the country.

"I'm gonna make t shirts with 'Wake up Peoples' emblazoned in the front." Well be careful. The BBC are reporting that the Caroline Flack charity T Shirts have been copied and all profits were supposed to go to the Samaritans. | |||

"Meanwhile the real risks to life are ignored here in the UK Life expectancy had now flattened due to tory austerity as shown in a newly published report. Mirroring America as the only western nation with a now reducing life expectancy. Bravo voters, you've done it again." Humans are not designed to live this long in the UK. In my opinion we live longer in ill health.. and yes we all know an Aunt Maude who lived to be 108 and played tennis every day.. | |||

"I'm gonna make t shirts with 'Wake up Peoples' emblazoned in the front." There was a band called Frankie Goes To Hollywood in the 80s. All the girls wore T-shirts with Relax written on the front. I am taking this as a compliment by the way | |||

The oddest part, you are on a swingers site. Swinging may include risky sexual behaviours......do you wear a full anti infection suit when going to a club or on a meet?? | |||

I do not wear a full suit but I do rubber up and take precautions. Maybe I don't belong here any more. Or perhaps never belonged here. Some of the negative responses to my posts do worry me though. | |||

"I don't mind a bit of challenge or criticism or debate or disagreement or even a bit of rudeness at times. Everyone can have a bad day and say something they regret. One arrow through my heart is being called a troll though. I never set out to upset anyone. If anyone wants to poke fun then great, call me a prat or a knob then fine.. but please please please never think of me as a troll.." Not a troll, well unless trolls have better looking feet than I imagined. For what it's worth your posts make me laugh, good or bad I don't know but laugh I do in a good way and I'll never call you a wanker unless I'm on my knees in front of you  | |||

The issue isn't as simple as figures based on current mortality rate of ~2%. It's a zoonotic virus remember - that's to say it has jumped a species barrier. Such a virus has a much higher propensity to mutate following that. A large part of any pandemic response will need to account for possible variation in incubation period, transmission and mortality. As I said, it's a zoonotic virus... things can changer very quickly. And yes, I have studied this. | |||

"So it's zoonotic.. That is serious .. is it ?" It can be serious. It just depends upon the strain. People tend to be more concerned about a zoonotic virus because it has already demonstrated an ability to mutate sufficient to affect a new species (jump the species barrier) and so there's a higher likelihood it'll be able to mutate again. It's impossible to know what that mutation will be - it's random. This means there are three possibilities: it could become less virulent, more virulent or stay about the same... or all three in different locations if spread widely enough. Where it becomes less virulent, it's possible it could end up no worse than a mild cold or maybe even disappear completely. Where it becomes more virulent, it could become mildly more so or morph into an absolute fucker. Since it's a virus which is new to the species to which it has jumped (in this case human), that species' immune system will not have any experience dealing with it - making it more of a risk yet to that species and potentially lethal if it mutates into a fucker. So those are the severities. Then you have to consider factors that relate to spread, like incubation period and whether it has mutated to become airborne. If it has a fast incubation, symptoms appear sooner so it's easier to track and isolate an infected population. If it has a long incubation, it can spread very widely before anyone notices. If it becomes airborne it's far more infectious. So far, most of the really nasty viruses like ebola haven't become airborne - but there's no theoretical reason why such a deadly virus cannot. Genetic mutations, especially those in viruses, are unpredictable but the odds are pretty high that something extremely nasty will appear sooner or later. The question in every lab is: will this one be the killer?.. or will it pass us by until further down the line, maybe the next one? Just nobody knows - it's all down to the roll of the dice. But it will come one day - that's about a definite. I know this probably isn't what you want to hear but that's the truth of it. What happens next will simply happen and we'll have to deal with it. On the plus side, you're unlikely to give it to your cat... unless it jumps another species barrier. | |||

"In all honesty what do any of us actually know about the origins of this virus? How do we know this isn't some concoction from a laboratory in China. Most likely from the USA It's man made, that's for sure " Sorry, but this is complete nonsense. It's simply how the processes of nature works. Genetic mutation is what drives every natural differentiation. It's a part of the process by which organisms (and species) evolve, from the tiniest virus barely more than a strand of DNA to the blue whale. Including us - if you can digest milk as an adult, then biologically you are a mutant human. New viruses are appearing all the time because they evolve (mutate) from other ones. Most will be mild, some will be nasty and the occasional one will be lethal. It doesn't need human action or a lab to happen... it's just nature. | |||

Both are more susceptible but equally so is anyone with other health complications and or a reduced immune system.. There was a bad virus going about before the Christmas in the county and sadly a young girl of 13 with no other health issues caught it, developed pneumonia and passed away.. | |||
