And, as they said on the news the other night, that hot weather/sunlight kills the thing off :( Meanwhile, Contact tracing won't curb COVID-19 spread if testing is too slow...

Some useful information about mask wearing in here, even if it needs filtering: http://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/newsscotland/the-face-coverings-people-should-not-wear-to-shops/ar-BB16M9Zg?li=AAnZ9Ug&ocid=ASUDHP

I keep meaning to ask whether anyone has tried Sainsbury's "Chop Chop" service, I think they call it - up to 20 items delivered in one hour, it claims. It's not available everywhere.

Some positives but more negatives in the USA: If you want to know why coronavirus is spiking in the US, compare Florida with Illinois http://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/if-you-want-to-know-why-coronavirus-is-spiking-in-the-us-compare-florida-with-illinois/ar-BB16Jzm6?ocid=ASUDHP Four...

I think all supermarkets have to some extent decided to concentrate on a smaller core of items for the time being, in the hope of being able to keep up with demand better. But I started abandoning Sainsbury's for Waitrose a couple of years ago, when they stopped selling a lot of what I thought...

Winter COVID-19 outbreak in UK could be worse than first peak and cause 120,000 deaths, scientists warn (seems like a worst-case scenario)...

Copied post In that case, might it not invalidate the warranty on it if it's new? Getting back to the original topic, I suppose this probably belongs here - Urgent parliamentary enquiry into the UK Government's handling of the pandemic, presumably with the aim of rectifying errors before a...

Thanks for the info about Ocado - I'd always assumed they did only Waitrose, and nothing else. Will have a look at them sometime.

How do you tell if there are 3 layers? I'm finding it very difficult, since I can't separate them out. I have a nasty feeling some I bought (from the local pharmacy, of all places!) are only two, because they seem very thin. Some of mine, I'm not sure whether they have 2 or 3 layers. And...

This may already be largely known: Wearing face mask cuts your own risk of coronavirus by 65%, California doctors say https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/newslondon/wearing-face-mask-cuts-your-own-risk-of-coronavirus-by-65percent-california-doctors-say/ar-BB16yjRs?ocid=ientp2

Best of luck with that. How long do US patents tend to take to proceed to grant?

Ah, thanks. I guess that would explain much of it. I was trying to work out what had been done in the past couple of weeks which might account for it. But they wouldn't have had time to develop CV-19 in the intervening days. Not to mention the fact that infection rates in London had been...

Two-thirds of people with coronavirus have no symptoms, ONS data shows http://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/coronavirus/two-thirds-of-people-with-coronavirus-have-no-symptoms-ons-data-shows/ar-BB16rGcp?li=BBoPWjQ&ocid=ASUDHP

Number in Dorset is now pushing 600. That's just over a week later. But that's nothing. I've just looked at the infection maps for the UK, and the changes in recorded infection rates over the past few days from previously stable numbers are quite shocking in a number of places, in particular...
