Obviously kittens is now fucked and will die imminently, but can someone smart please tell me what this means for those of us normal, hard working Brits who aren't charging into disease epicentres, tongues out and inhaling deeply with the tragically doomed enthusiasm of a Labrador puppy with leukemia.

Is this genuinely worth panicking about? Should I pack my job in and fuck off?

No. Just wash your hands regularly.

Stop trying to quit your job!

I think he's just trying to get out of washing his hands.

Kryton

Pfft, you'll be telling me to shower regularly next.

Maybe have some stuff in the freezer, and some paracetamol in the house. But you should have this anyway, especially in flu season.

You wash your hands before you use this forum again, young man.

Going to Japan in three weeks and as a perpetually warm, clammy man, I'm terrified about getting mistakenly quarantined at the airport.

boomer dad cancelled holiday. It's very real now people

Norton Canes

Beginning to look like any holiday might be touch and go now.

Got a feeling we might be in for some seriously Scarfolk-style domestic lockdowns too.

Brother-in-law just went out there for his hols. Last year he went to Florida just in time for hurricane Dorian. I'll be paying closer attention to his travel schedule from now on.

My conference (due to be held in June in Trieste) got the dreaded vote of confidence in The Guardian, who quoted the organisers as saying it's going ahead as they hope things will be resolved by then. Good thing I haven't booked my flights!

On the plus side you can look forward to another 14 days off when you return.

QuoteBritons returning from northern Italy are being told to self-isolate in the UK if they show coronavirus symptoms.

Health Secretary Matt Hancock said people with flu-like symptoms who have been north of Pisa are asked to stay at home for 14 days.

The advice also applies to anyone who recently returned from Italy's quarantined towns even if they have no symptoms, he said.

I think you should bring back your wonderful avatar Zetetic, something good has to come out of all this death.

Even if it turns out they have contracted the virus

I thought LOCKDOWN happened to gang bangers from South Central; seems a bit incongruous applied to sleepy Italian villages and hotels in the Canaries.

kittens

knowing my luck i'm not gonna get coronavirus and i'll have to go to work again. feels like if i fake symptoms i could get rubbished in the national press. but then again it's two weeks off work. what should i do

Alberon

I'm supposed to be going to Valencia in under a month and Northern Bloody Italy in June.

It looks like all my holiday time will be spent in the back garden and dead.
