It's almost like people can't stay in shape outside of a gym.

I don’t think it matters right now if it came from a bat or a lab or Saturn.

It came from a bat in a lab on Saturn.

You get though some people enjoy it ? To some people it’s a huge part of their physical and mental well being . I could have died a decade or so ago , suffered serious ptsd and associated ailments and at various stages thought I wouldn’t be here . I’m currently healthier than I’ve been since I boxed , probably not much in it and have various functions like lung etc of somebody much younger .

It’s not hyperbole to say the gym might have saved my life and I love the level of fitness it’s allowed me to maintain. Yeah I’m maintaining a level of fitness now but combined with an injury I’ve gone massively backwards already and given my age and the timescale being spoken off it’ll take me a significant time to get back to anywhere close to where I was .

The lab that been researching coronavirus for years apparently.

And in the true spirit of the age it's been brought to my attention that plenty of Chinese students are selling face masks if anyone interested.

Lot of labs all over the world study a lot of different viruses and other dangerous things. This is how we learn.

Researches have studied the genome and concluded it was not created in a lab and published their data in a peer reviewed article.

"A group of researchers compared the genome of this novel coronavirus with the seven other coronaviruses known to infect humans: SARS, MERS and SARS-CoV-2, which can cause severe disease; along with HKU1, NL63, OC43 and 229E, which typically cause just mild symptoms, the researchers wrote March 17 in the journal Nature Medicine.
"Our analyses clearly show that SARS-CoV-2 is not a laboratory construct or a purposefully manipulated virus," they write in the journal article. "


If your Mongolian friend has similar peer reviewed data, I'd love to see it.
Otherwise lets avoid paranoia and conspiracy theories. Folks are struggling as is.

Was in my local store, small shop, the other day, the only one on there.

Was wearing the gloves, and the shopkeeper proceeded to tell me that they were useless, that the virus can get through them and that you spread the disease quicker by using them. I'm venturing out later for my weekly shop and am now unsure should I, or not wear them.

He also had a pop at those who are wearing masks for similar reasons to the gloves.

The virus probably can’t get through gloves, but yes by touching things with them you might (if you keep the gloves on) contaminate other things you go in to pick up.

Sure he isn't a part time undertaker.
