I am very grumpy. I have had a persistent cough for a week - very audible in the office - and do now have had to "self isolate" for 7 days working from home in line with Gov guidelines yday.
Otherwise feel fine. Going to be stuck between a couple of rooms of 6 and a half days now - but who's counting....

Italy hits milestone - 1000 dead. Yet when in two winter months in England & Wales alone 2017-2018 50,000 died and nobody seemed to panic. Why not? Because, in those days, the 'flu epidemic was a regular thing and media did not consider it a good story.

Hundreds of billions being spent; countries closed down; financial armageddons
Every agency, government and institution - of the same opinion
Media spin/bullshit again?
