Jippa posted:Keep your kids away from your parents is another huge one. Yeah I've forbidden my mum from visiting us. She has copd from a lifetime of smoking and already nearly died from catching a standard cold from our kids two years ago. Coronavirus sounds like it would be really really bad for her.

After the recent announcement of Baldur's Gate 3, there's a hashtag that got my hopes up for a moment.

Shogi posted:Judging by the fact I now feel like I’ve been run over by a bus, I reckon our elderly mental health site does in fact have covid-19 brewing. Our ‘response’ to the pandemic certainly represents a new and exciting way for the government to cull our patients. I feel so thoroughly sick of all this. Sure it's not good old flu? Supposedly the fatigue/ache symptoms are less common with covid-19.

My wife went to a meeting yesterday to discuss event cancellation due to coronavirus. She maintained impeccable social distance and then every other idiot at the meeting went right in and hugged her. This morning she has a tickly cough, so joke's on them I guess.

Dr John Campbell's update yesterday saying there was preliminary data suggesting interventions targeted at symptoms (antipyretics, steroids) may actually be increasing the death rate. "Think twice about taking paracetamol etc" if you have it. No peer reviewed studies yet or anything but... (the section where he talks about Italy's death rate in this video, for those not already following the account) Also, question for the professionals in the thread, I'm fascinated by the report upthread mentioning white blood cell count not increasing at all over the course of this disease. Is this significant? Are there other diseases that do this?

Barry Foster posted:14 days. My understanding is 14 days (as a household) if you live in a household with other people. 7 days if you live alone, though more is better as a few people may still be infectious after 7.

 The UKMT Solidarity Fund is now live! This has taken way longer than it was ever meant to (for various reasons as Rarity has already explained), but the pandemic and the current dire straits faced by many workers have finally galvanised us to Get
Now the actual details - Guavanaut if you could add this info to the OP that would be super awesome: How to Donate Funds: Paypal - https://paypal.me/ukmtsolidarity OR Bank Transfer - PM IrvingWashington (aka Bill Drummond on Discord) for account details How to Apply for Funds: Fill in the Google Form OR PM a committee member on forum or Discord: AceClown, Fargle (discord only), Maugrim, Oscar Diggs or Rarity.Thanks folks - hoping this will really help some comrades in need.

Prince John posted:Wow, this is a great idea! This is a good idea, thanks! It wouldn't be as onerous as you say because we don't consider individual donations as being "spent" so it would be calculated purely from total amounts donated, but there are some odd possible outcomes (such as someone who donated £5 in the past being the only reclaimant and getting £2000 back). Giving to charity is a better bet.

Solidarity Fund Update Thanks so much to everyone who has been so generously donating. We passed £2k today which is loving amazing. We have also helped our first goon! Remember that you can receive as well as give, if you're financially unstable and some unexpected expense is threatening to knock you off your feet, that's what we're here for. The constitution has undergone minor changes following feedback and will be adopted tomorrow if nothing further arises. Future updates will be posted at the start of each month (and probably whenever anything of interest happens because it's nice to have some  news amidst the nonstop doom.)

Biggus Dickus posted:Any idea when the proper bank account will be set up? I want to set up a standing order and forget about it. Yeah I'm the same - done a one-off donation but not a standing order yet. To answer your question, it's going to take a few weeks to process the application even after we get it together, so realistically not for at least a month and probably more. We will definitely shout in the thread when it happens though!

Strom Cuzewon posted:So what's happened in the past 24 hours that we're (probably) going from "oh please don't stand too close together" to full on lockdown? 24 hours of the media softening up public opinion and soliciting approval for big daddy Johnson to reluctantly ground us all.

King's College Hospital has made a covid tracker app to try and get a handle on how it's developing and identify who is most at risk earlier - seems like as many people as possible in the UK should use it so I thought I'd post the link here. Please grab it if you can spare a minute a day to report symptoms (or lack of) http://covid.joinzoe.com E: M-209 was a lightweight portable pin-and-lug cipher machine developed at the beginning of World War II.

Bardeh posted:As good of an idea as that sounds, how useful can self-reporting be? I'm hyper-aware of every cough, tickle in my throat, anything right now. People are going to be reporting symptoms en masse. You have to assume the researchers at Kings are able to account for that kind of noise in their analysis.

learnincurve posted:I have no idea what you are raking about If this is Justin from Something special then I will end you in parent or special need’s child. The man is an Saint and an National Treasure. Thank you for getting this response in as I'm too many pages behind to do so. He's a drat good clown and all kids could benefit from learning some Makaton. Also special shoutout to Steve Kynman (Robert the Robot on Justin's House) who's a really talented performer but rarely gets to show it. The episode where Justin loses his voice is top work.
