It must be very unpleasant not giving freedoms to yourself and others....Not the kind of world I want to live in..... That is ok so long as you do not infect anyone else,because then you could be infringing on their basic right to be alive. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lazarus Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Sick now, sick later? ...The UK National Health Service assumes that of Covid-19 patients who have required hospitalization, 45 percent will need ongoing medical care, 4 percent will require in-patient rehabilitation, and 1 percent will permanently require acute care. Other preliminary evidence, as well as historical research on other coronaviruses like severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), suggests that for some people, a full recovery might still be years off. For others, there may be no returning to normal...

farangme Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 I was at a Glasgow mosque today, no social distancing, the young Muslim lads working in it sold me 20 bags of multifinish plaster. Can't buy it anywhere, I'm so happy I'm almost converting. Thank you Allah you have given me what b&q couldn't. I'll be back in saying prayers if they can sell me plasterboard. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you mean. It's frustrating dealing these anti-covid-19 creeps.
