The Old Git Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Good to see that they’re bang on with data protection etc. My lawyer sent me someone else documents last week. Oops! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do understand that three weeks ago two people probably came back to the IOM with covid as well. But as they weren’t tested you didn’t know about it. So I’m not sure why you’re all of a sudden peeing your pants about covid carriers now just because we’re testing people for the first time when we haven’t before. Likely there’s been a good number over the last few months in exactly the same situation who simply haven’t been tested.

Because it's rising everywhere in Europe, particularly concerning the UK since kids went back to school. Which equals more chance of getting it and bringing it here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oops! At a banking review I was addressed as someone else half way through and informed that I had £6m coming to the end of an investment term! I happened to know the person too!

thommo2010 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Be interesting to see how these cases came to light, paid for tests after 7 days or got symptoms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be noticed at the hospital if it had been spreading, there would be cases that would require treatment by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point. Unless everyone who has it in the community is by some fluke asymptomatic it surely can't be at large? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
