Did you miss the cannibalism up thread ?

I would love to know how much blame can be attached to the conditions in the markets specifically for causing the pandemic as opposed to other factors. What I mean is, what about other countries where livestock is reared in low standards - surely there must be cases of viral infections developing there and passing to humans too? We know COVID is exceptionally contagious but I wonder how much the high population density of China (over a billion people for goodness sake!) is responsible for it spreading it so rampantly? In times of crisis people will look for a simple cause to attach blame to but the reasons rarely are so black and white in reality.

Ebola was passed from them eating monkeys/bushmeat. It isn't uncommon at all.

For everyone talking about joe wicks yesterday....this made me laugh. I love paddy raff

Genuinely thought he introduced himself as “Joe Wigs.”

 

[btw]

Apologises if this has already been mentioned, but is there any reason why the UK’s number of recovered people is so little compared to other countries? Is it because our government isn’t releasing information on patients who have recovered or is it simply because not many people have actually recovered?

this is weird. I’m certain many people have recovered so far, Prince charles being one?!

Of course China are giving true reports on the amount of deaths and people infected, they have no reason to lie...

Are we supposed to just sit at home eating carrots. Stuck at home with no treats or joy at all? No thanks. I wont go crazy and we are only going to the shop once a week and just my husband is going, but we need whatever joy we can get right now and a lot of that it coming from food and baking right now for us tbh. And an easter egg for the kids to look forward to.

Only tinned carrots ya know. How dare you enjoy a chocolate bar!!

<disclaimer> we bought extra Easter eggs cause eating is the only thing that’s fun right now.

My mental health is awful. One of my neighbours decomposed body was found today. I live alone with baby and I am so scared. I don’t even want to go do my exercise anymore

 

[Sven]

Don’t forget though, the media etc is very restricted in China. Of course, if something we ate here had caused a worldwide pandemic, nearly everyone would stop eating it. But how much do the people of China actually know about it? They’re probably bombarded with other reasons, and propaganda. They’d report it here, but they probably wouldn’t report it there.

What a terrible thing to experience sympathy to all involved..maybe ring a friend or your family and have a talk to someone x

Does anyone know if Jellytots have been done away with ?

my faves! You can still get them but they’re not available everywhere! I always see them in wilko in packs of three

How awful. Try and keep getting your exercise and fresh air, it will make you feel better, honest. Hope you’re ok x

It’s hard to keep track of how many have recovered because hospitals aren’t keeping patients in for their full recovery as full recovery takes up to 2 weeks . Some are only staying in for couple days to get over the worst of it and then being discharged and self isolating till they’re over the infectious period

we’re 3 weeks into this at the most.
You don’t count someone as recovered until 2 weeks after symptoms have cleared from what I’ve seen

That’s terrible. I feel very sad for anyone who gets it in America.
