That's good news if true.
Maybe next time he will be more careful and set a proper example.

Oh yes......they have. They may not have listed the symptoms in that way........but they have. Heck.....when he lasts poke you could tell he was having trouble breathing.
Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'
That's weird, because he said on Friday that he's feeling better and the only symptom he has is a temperature.

Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'
Tell you what, the British people may stop shaking hands with each other when we're told not to by the NHS and the government.
Until then, we're free to do so.
Contrary to what some some thick scaremongerers believe, the NHS has NOT said we cannot shake hands.

Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'
BoJo..... tended to minimize his symptoms........ and he kept working ......... and that might have prevented him from recovering as he should have. He might have over estimated his strength. He was so focused o n normalizing the situation.......and the situation is not normal.
What matters is that his symptoms.......regardless of what they are........have worsened..........and now he requires care in ICU. THAT IS NOT GOOD>...

Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'
The NHS hasn’t advised people to stop shaking hands to avoid the Wuhan coronavirus
28th Feb 2020
Claim
The NHS has warned people should not shake hands to prevent the spread of the Wuhan coronavirus
Conclusion
This is incorrect. Although some doctors have suggested this may be a good idea, no advice around shaking hands has been issued by the government
This article was correct at the time of publication. While the NHS still does not specifically suggest avoiding handshaking to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus, far more widespread 'social distancing' measures are now recommended. You can read more about these here.

“Ban handshakes to stop coronavirus, NHS warns.”
The Sun, 27 February 2020
A headline in The Sun incorrectly said the NHS has warned people to ban handshakes to prevent the spread of the Wuhan coronavirus. The government has not issued any official advice on handshaking, although some doctors have suggested avoiding it.
Since we first wrote this article The Sun corrected its headline to clarify that the advice actually came from a doctor rather than the NHS. The article later clarifies the suggestion came up in an interview on BBC Breakfast with GP Dr Rosemary Leonard and Leeds University virologist Stephen Griffin.
A clip of the interview shows Dr Leonard saying: “When we all walked into the BBC this morning, the charming people at the desk were all shaking our hands.
“I know it’s very British and very polite, we probably ought to stop shaking hands.”
She is not the only doctor to have suggested this. The manager of Newcastle United, Steve Bruce, told the BBC that the club has introduced a handshake ban at its training ground to avoid the spread of the Wuhan coronavirus on the advice of a doctor.
And in February, virologist Professor John Oxford from Queen Mary University told BBC Radio 4’s Today Programme: “What we need to do is less of the handshaking, hugging, kissing, that sort of thing, because this virus looks like its spread by ordinary tidal breathing, not necessarily colds and coughing.”
However, Public Health England, which is in charge of giving health advice to the public, has confirmed to us last month that no advice around shaking hands had been issued by the government.
The NHS advice recommends covering your mouth and nose with a tissue or your sleeve—rather than your hands—when you cough or sneeze and putting used tissues in the bin immediately. It also advises frequent hand washing with soap and water for 20 seconds, or hand sanitiser gel if soap and water aren’t available, and avoiding close contact with people who are unwell. Since this article was first published the NHS has added two new pieces of advice to this list, it adds that you should always wash your hands when you get home or into work. It also says to try and avoid close contact with people who are unwell.

Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'
The only thing that isn't normal is the unnecessary lockdown.
As for Boris, a Tory was saying on Sky News about half an hour ago it could be stress that has made him feel worse.

Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'
Science...you know...black magic. It says you can have zero symptoms and still have the "FLU" and spread it to others who may die from it.
Witches.

Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'
That is really bugging you.......isn't it?? You might just have to find a way of accepting it / dealing with it. It is temporary. You seem to fear that it might become permanent. That is not rational thinking. fear c an do that.
Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'
It's bugging a lot of people.
As someone rightly told me in work today, if this lockdown continues much longer there'll probably be an uprising.
Other European countries are about to end their lockdown. Britain should follow.

You take to much it will make you blind.
It is known that some people who take hydroxychloroquine for more than five years and/or in high doses are at increased risk of damage to their retina, the light sensitive layer of cells at the back of the eye. This is known as retinal toxicity or retinopathy.

Lupus patients need it to live and may find shortages based on anecdotal evidence mostly based in China.
You trust China?
