Went down to the shopping mall today . Toilet paper and flour were not on my shopping list.
Just as well can you believe the shelves are again stripped bare . This is NSW I am talking about we are not even expericing a surge in convid 19 here.What is a matter with these people? They did not need the toilet paper last time,why should they need it this time?
A lot is caused by the evil idiots called the media!

As mentioned elsewhere, I noticed no toilet rolls in Coles this afternoon. Coles should publish video of the 'looters'.

This is interesting and odd,
Coronavirus was found in Spain in the sewer system in March 2019 .
One year before anyone had even heard of it.
See link.

I'm not 100% confident about the testing for Covid19.
I keep hearing of people testing positive then a few days later testing negative.
Hmm!

I know they need to get a good sample very high up in the nose.which is not much fun at all. The swab they take from inside your throat is easy and is over in a couple of seconds.
They are very thorough and change cloves and masks with each test.
There is also some type of light shining , perhaps a germ killer I don't know.
Having the test is no fun ,but knowing your negative is great.

Testing is the only weapon we have at present so it's vital.
I can't fathom the mentality of people who refuse it.

Coronavirus was found in Spain in the sewer system in March 2019. One year before anyone had even heard of it.

I think the key sentence in that article is this one: "There was the potential for a false positive due to the virus’ similarities with other respiratory infections."

I'm willing to believe that covd-19 was infecting people in China months before they admitted it, but a year earlier is really pushing it.
