That's what I thought Tiz.

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
This has up to date and useful information on the latest results from China...
`Coronavirus: Largest study suggests elderly and sick are most at risk' LINK
It has a dialog box labelled `Can we answer your question on the coronavirus?' so out of curiosity I typed in the following:
Is it known how long Covid-19 survives on surfaces such as supermarket trolley handles? And are supermarkets cleaning their trolley handles or providing disinfectant wipes as in Australia? I then clicked on the spyglass symbol but nothing happens and I can't find any way to submit the questions!

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
My hubby had a triple bypass over 10 years ago and has FIVE stents, including an Aortic Arch Stent, which was extremely difficult to place and “touch and go”. He is in good health.
Have I replied to the wrong topic? ( oh dear). I was reading something on here about stents and now it seems to have evaporated. Taken away? Removed?

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
It's in the Attention thread on this link, Maz: LINK I put it there because I'd written about coronavirus on this thread. But here it is again...
This caught my attention today because our neighbour opposite has just told us he's got a problem and asked us to hold a key for his house in case of emergency. He had a stent fitted a few years ago and has been healthy, going to the gym each day even though he has poor mobility, but suddenly his heart is failing again and he has a worrying wait for treatment.

Time flies, it's time again to book for the annual big diabetes clinic. They do a check every six months but then annually they include foot sensitivity and blood flow. It's annoying but good to know they are looking after me.

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
Mrs Tiz went for her eye check yesterday and the readings were 17 left, 16 right compared with the 30th December when they were 25 and 20. She had some slight itchiness but not enough to warrant extra treatment. A good result, especially in such a short time.

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
Just picked up on Facebook that Colin (Nolic) has had a Mini Stroke a few days ago. He was in Airedale for treatment but has been discharged now. I have wished him a speedy recovery of course.

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
Hope Nolic is soon back to his Traycle mining...
Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
All the best Nolic. Take Care.
I know I'm in my own little world, but it's OK... they know me here.
Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
Best wishes Nolic, hope you soon feel better.

I've mailed him asking for a full report. Can't have my mates dropping off the perch without warning!

Onwards and upwards, Nolic!

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
Stop it Tiz! If it was you'll make him worse by reminding him of it!

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
The WHO is worrying about the sudden appearance of Covid_19 virus in mother countries around the world, in people who haven't been to China or had contact with those who have been there. I'll offer my opinion on the origin of the virus in these cases. So-called bushmeat exported around the world. Meat from wild animals such as reptiles, amphibians, birds, pangolins etc. It's a long established trade, illegal but now much easier via the internet connections. And now it's become trendy too.

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
Could be Tiz, we can rule nothing out. What interests me is the places that aren't reporting any cases, most notably Russia. I smell a rat!

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
Of course another possibility to explain the sudden wide spread of infections is terrorist activity - bio-warfare.

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
bio-warfare. A bit pointless unless you have a vaccine or antidote. I'm inclined to blame aeroplanes and tourism. Constantly recycling air that has been used countless times almost guarantees spreading respiratory infections. Nobody will shut their air transport down, too much money involved. Notice that those countries which rely on tourism are keeping very quiet.

This free course from Futurelearn is very timely. plagues and pandemics
Learned yesterday why a declaration of 'epidemic' or 'pandemic' by the W.H.O is important. Seems it excuses the insurance companies from paying out claims made under travel insurance.
