Good luck getting your money back when they start banning travel

That's what (good) insurance is for.

Anyone remember swine flu? Yeah, exactly.

I'm off to the terrifying cess pit that is Londinium to see Michael McIntrye, I expect they will be issuing face masks at Kings Cross?...

And ear plugs as well hopefully.

I’d rather have Coronavirus than watch Michael McIntyre

The only thing that could possibly worse would be catching coronavirus whilst watching Michael McIntired.

Some serious carnage on the markets - time to worry folks.

Theres unfortunately no way of stopping it either from what I can see and we haven't even got that many cases here.

It’s time for The Big Short

We’ve been told to prepare for self isolation in work and be ready for the instruction to not come in for a fortnight.

It sounds like the majority of people catching it are most likely dirty buggers who have poor personal hygiene.

Which, when you work in an office building means you realise just how many people that is, and just how easy it will be to catch something.

Had to complain today about some dirty cvnt leaving bright orange stains spread all over a toilet seat in our place. Apparently the building manager was only in yesterday ranting at all the occupiers about this sort of thing, as he found 4 of 9 toilets unflushed when he came to do his checks.

They've actually had to remove the seat in question as it won't clean up. He reckons someone's been sick but I'm fairly sure it's just some fat cvnt that doesn't wipe their arse properly that's stained the seat.

Grim. Sadly I can also vouch for this not improving with either education level or average office salary.

Orange?!

And that’s how he got the name Orange Cola

On another note it looks like the fear of a no deal Brexit has at least helped prepare for the Coronavirus. Supermarkets had stockpiled non perishable goods which are now being used during the increased sales. NHS had stockpiled medical items...

Other people's standards of hygiene seem to be about the level of a two year old when it comes to toilets, eating and general cleanliness - all in a shared office space. No wonder big companies are going to tell people not to come in.

Idiotic question of the day.... why are the markets being hit so hard given the current spread of it, low mortality rates and the fact many businesses will be able to cope and carry-on pretty much as normal?

Supply chains oil and banks all issues.

On my City index spread betting trial account I made 1300 in 12 hours on Lloyds falling . I guess lots of people doing this for real is a major factor too. Easy money.

163 now. Could start to really rocket this next week

They're now popping up around us, albeit in small numbers, but given the 2-14 days incubation period I'm guessing that number will jump pretty quickly now.
