I'm guessing that colds and flus have similar incubation times to coronavirus.
So perhaps isolation will result in a dramatic reduction in their volumes too. Here's hoping. |

Social distancing should have an effect of reducing all diseases. There should especially be a drastic fall in the STI rate, although possibly a rise in the birth rate. Generally speaking it only takes two people isolated together to make a baby, but it takes a sequence of people in social contact to spread an STI.... |

Every Year we get a flu shot (costs just 8.99) We say to so many of our friends and customers get a shot they say they will but very few do. One friend always says 'Can't justify it on the household budget'. Yet she Vapes!
This year we decided to get a pneumonia injection too (£69.98). Covers for 5 years.
Having pneumonia can lead to a very much higher risk of heart problems in the future too.
Our arguement is this: 'Why be ill'
The flu shot is the price of two drinks and the pneumonia shot the cost of a night out.
If we are all being taught to care for each other now by not infecting each other - maybe people will care a lot more in the future too.

"So much for my theory colds will struggle also with lockdown. I am now suffering a cold myself Sod’s law "
I had a cold the first week all this really kicked off in the UK. I was getting a bit paranoid! |

Currently going through a cold, never made note of how much I cough and what sort it is and how often I cough.
Making us all paranoid, how many of us would normally have coughs and colds this time of year?
Not forgetting trees are starting to bud, could that trigger allergies?
Currently only 0.03% of uk population have or have had confirmed Covid 19 |

"Divorce rate will rocket as likely will murder and suicide sadly
Interesting"
As would domestic violence sadly, according to reports from China and Italy who both reported a noticeable rise |

Do you see any irony in this? |

And while you’re looking for it.... I assume that she previously smoked.... and has made the change to vape.... massively reducing her risk, reducing her families potential exposure while trying to manage an addiction to nicotine?! |

"So what will Happen to rhinovirus and other cold causing virus now us easy prey are social distancing. I hope these don’t turn more virulent also"
Was reading an interesting report last night ( insomnia is a bitch) and this was about stuff like this. It warned flu could get worse etc and other viruses although they should become less common x ( hence why they could get worse) |

"Folk will make their own mind up regarding getting the flu shot its their bodies ." I am offered it every year as is my daughter, but I refuse it because the only times my daughter has ever got really bad flu is when she had the jab. So now we just do lots of handwashing etc and take our chances.
