Has anyone tried eating European bats to see if it counteracts the virus?

Worth a shot now everything else has failed surely.

Might be a cure. Two wrongs always make a right.

What will happen with baby products do we think? Seeing a lot on social media of people selling baby milk etc.

Nappies etc. are being raided in supermarkets where I live. Can't find Calpol for love nor money.

I've been struggling to find nappies since the weekend for my boy. People must be hoarding hundreds of them. Absolute rats.

It’s disgraceful , we’re not even a week into this . A couple of days ago I know someone couldn’t get baby milk for love nor money I can only imagine the situation has got worse .

And a third one for a bit of light relief ........... to just have a laugh and take us away from it all for an hour or so.

Yeah, US testing is ramping up but still very limited as well.

for me if it’s true that’s an insane acceleration in a couple of days . If true then we’ll deal with it , if not then it’s the curse of social media. If true Why are we going straight to the army rather than using the police to enforce a curfew ? Using the military on the streets of the UK would be an absolute recipe for disaster , whatever the intentions just ask those in the six counties .

I’m not saying it’s untrue nor that even if untrue it won’t come to pass . It just feels very ‘rumour ish’

Maybe because we don't have enough police to do this?
