Coronavirus worries?

[MyNameIsTerry]

Hi all - I am new on this thread and am absolutely petrified about this virus.

New case confirmed in London and now news articles about the London Underground being the most risky area is freaking me out. I take both the tube and train everyday to get to work and I am sooooo worried about catching something. Not so much for myself but more so... me getting sick and (touchwood) passing it onto my Dad who is 69 or my nieces aged 3 and 1.5 or nephew aged 1.5 years. Its all I can think about and I hate going to and from work. I am constantly washing my hands that they are now cracked and bleeding. No one in London is really wearing masks but I feel like I need to get a N95 mask and just wear it. Even though people will probably look at me like a weirdo.

The lack of positive news its what's really worrying me - for young people it may not be so bad but for kids and elderly it could be and I'm so worried for my parents the kids. When will this all end!!

In Tuesday's Parliamentary debate they were discussing research out of China showing children are not as at risk as the elderly or health compromised.

Brexit was a doddle compared to Coroner-Virus (as my local surgery pronounce it on their pre-recorded "welcome to the surgery" phone message). Most unfortunate..

The papers will love that

You're speaking to a man who lives in Windsor. Don't talk to me about Royals lol.

Fingers crossed I don't get man flu any more lol. 2.5 years and counting, virtually zero illness.......
