tbh, I haven't seen an old style handkerchief for years.
If masks get in short supply the wife's best cotton sheets will be getting cut up
Something tall, conical with eyeholes should do the job

Interesting to note the difference in response and transparency between the likes of South Korea and Italy with Iran and China. If anything good comes of this it'll hopefully be the collapse of both of those hideous regimes that do nothing but continue to propagate the suffering of their peoples.

The opposite will happen in china, they will claim thst only obedience to the rigid control prevented it getting worse than it was.

Tbh in the early stages, the suggestion from those managing the response in the UK was that China's ability to be more draconian, was beneficial to preventing spread.

Not the worst supposition

 

[LinekersLegs]

There was speculation that heat/humidity might have a impact, wonder if this is a factor the Singapore figures or just that they built up good response systems from lessons learnt in previous outbreaks like SARS

 

[LinekersLegs]

Iran‘s outbreak, and how they are handling it, is concerning.
