I've non idea why, but AFAIK nobody observed pet-to-human transmission --- End quote --- From what I've read covid-19 is *not* transmitted by feces. Do you have a credible study that states differently? --- End quote --- there are registered cases regarding the SARS virus (via a defective bathroom aeration system in a Hong Kong building) while COVID-19 has been detected in feces and tears besides that diarrhea is one of the known symptom (together with loss of taste and smell senses) |

What was the last thing I wrote in the same very same post you're quoting just part of? --- Quote from: Cerebus on March 17, 2020, 02:38:09 pm ---Lastly, if you are infected, or have good reason to believe that you might be infected - stay at home, do not go out in public unless strictly necessary. The question of "mask or no mask" doesn't come into it if you've put a door and some distance between you and the rest of the world. --- End quote --- |

Well people, Belgium has just increased measures one step before a total lock-down: - Everyone stays at home unless for essentials or really needed to get to the workplace - One person per 10m2 in supermarkets - Maximum groups of 2 persons allowed in public - Social distancing mandatory including for all companies and public transport - If not followed, police will fine and/or close down facilities Something tells me by the end of next week this will be considered too soft and a total lock-down will be the case. Some infected people who had less luck here have now posted reports or videos from their hospital beds, begging our fellow citizens to take this extremely seriously because, being healthy in their 40's and 50's they did not expect it to be that bad. They said it feels like hell, is painful and with extreme exhaustion. No visits, total isolation and doctors come and go dressed like martians. Whoever still doubts this is no more than just another flu, is a lost case, I'm afraid. |
