Loss of smell and taste seems to be a symptom that shows up even in very mild cases and could be an important diagnostic tool:

After you have diagnosed that you have got the virus, then what are you going to do?
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

Quarantine yourself from others if you haven't already done so.

Start at the bottom and work your way up. The first thing to do is house the homeless in empty hotels rooms.

We have closed, more or less, everything, apart from what they call essential things. The hospitals cannot deal with the amount now and so that is why they are resorting to lockdown. There are only so many hospital beds, private and NHS. Not enough ventilators and so on.

The problem isn't shelter, it's gather.

Mad as hell moment coming; at 8 pm, we here, have all got to stick our heads out the window and shout, well done our marvellous NHS.

My son got his pal; it’s his pals birthday today and my son told him to go outside at 8 because he had a surprise for him. When he went out and everybody started shouting and applauding he said, thank you, thank you.

What I would like to know is if they are ever going to give us our freedom back.

Former prime minister Gordon Brown has called for the creation of a "temporary" form of global government to be assembled to provide a unified body to tackle coronavirus. Such an organisation could tackle the spread of the virus.

I wouldn't expect it anytime in this life... I mean, world time.

"President Trump has invoked the Defense Production Act to make General Motors manufacture respirators to help fight the coronavirus outbreak. The announcement was made hours after Trump complained in tweets that GM and Ford were not doing enough to help produce the medical equipment during the pandemic.
'Our negotiations with GM regarding its ability to supply ventilators have been productive, but our fight against the virus is too urgent to allow the give-and-take of the contracting process to continue to run its normal course,' Trump said in a statement. 'GM was wasting time. Today’s action will help ensure the quick production of ventilators that will save American lives.' "

In the meantime, our leaders are dropping like flies, including the Prime Minister, members of the Royal family and top advisers dealing with the issue. In short, the measures are not working despite all the talk.

Aside from the fact that they got bailed out. One might just think they feel an obligation for that at least.

United Airlines just announced they are laying off workers a mere few hours after they just got a huge chunk of money from Congress not to do so.

It's hard to know who is more at fault--United Airlines or Congress.

On a day of relentless and sobering news about the coronavirus, California Gov. Gavin Newsom unveiled an alarming projection: More than half the 40-plus million people in his state will contract COVID-19 in the next eight weeks.

In short, the measures are being implemented after many have already been exposed instead of before. The measures needed to be implemented much earlier and much more strictly, too.

Steady traffic here, many picking up food at restaurants (which I think is a non-essential practice for most). Stay home. Go out only for essentials. I think many are going out for non-essentials, indeed.
