Nothing to be sorry about. What that info says makes sense, if you look around the World. Most of the outbreaks are in the Northern hemisphere, Very little reported in Africa, for example. Slunnies post confirms that hospitals are expecting a surge in our winter. Wouldn't it be crazy if climate change saved us from the worst of it.

Americans are a little behind the eight ball. The Toorack Doctor who got back from the US might be a bit surprised he got it. He was

I suspect this is the most truthful on the topic "Our fear of coronavirus could be 'far more contagious than the disease itself'"

Our own Government started stockpiling certain products weeks ago!
That lit the fuse perhaps for the public stockpiling in general.
So its certainly not unreasonable to follow suit.
You snooze you loose.

Perhaps, as an intelligent person you can explain to me why the coronavirus requires people to stockpile toilet paper? Is there a general shortage of toilet paper? No. Does all of our toilet paper come from China? No. Italy? No. South Korea? No. Does coronavirus cause diarrhoea, that would require lots of toilet paper? No. Does toilet paper treat, cure or prevent coronavirus? No.

So why the **** is every idiot and his dog buying every roll that they can grab?

Right ... weren't you the one that entered the thread by stating that anyone who hadn't hoarded was a moron?

No, you're not going to prevent Ebola or coronavirus with warm water. Your source is American and confused.

The smart people didn't catch on as quickly as the idiots it would seem.

Hopefully, my additions to the "Where are You Logging in From?' thread won't be from some isolation ward in Siberia although, I did read that the virus doesn't handle cold temps.

Perhaps a charter flight across the ditch to Dunedin, for an extended holiday, is the go?
