kyleolly Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 No further tests for the 3 players showing symptoms, it’s been called a seasonal illness it’s no wonder they have a cold it was very cold and extremely wet on Monday.

David Hankey Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 I've been coughing and sneezing since the Vanilla game. Fortunately no high temperature nor shivering so I guess it's nothing more than a common cold. I have no rung 111 and would you know it, I'm still alive!!

They are further along the journey than we are and if you believe what the experts are telling us, timing is crucial for taking extreme measures.
Kalacs_Orthopedic_Shoe Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 🎶We're on our way, on our way. To isolation we're on our way. Ricky P ACL, Jamie Vardy not feeling well. Grab some pasta cos Leicesters on their way 🎶

Tom12345 Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 1 hour ago, moore_94 said: You do know transmission from droplets in the air via coughing/sneezing makes it an airborne virus right? It is not really what you would regard as an airborne virus like measles. See reading such as: www.livescience.com/amp/how-coronavirus-spreads.html If it is airborne, we are in even bigger trouble. It doesn’t stay “airborne” for long. It needs to be carried by droplets as you say, but droplets drop to a surface and unless you are in the vicinity of someone with the virus who just coughed, you wouldn’t get the virus “airborne”. You would get it because you touched a surface that has the droplets which virus can live in for days, or through direct touching/hugging.
Adster Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 **** me what a shit news day today has been 3 players self-isolating Maddison injured Ricky P ACL

How many players cough and spit during a game who then go on to touch their faces for example? As Rodgers said in his Sky interview, these things are a matter of health and players have family and children. To those having tests I hope they come back negative and wish the very best for them. Health is more important than football. Yeah, I agree with you. Was only clarifying for others what is normally regarded as an airborne virus which this one is not. But yeah, this appears to be quite contagious so to avoid this being a public health disaster (eg. load on the health system), I support taking quick decisive action and everyone changing their habits to be ultra hygienic. Stay healthy.
49er Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 I think that I have deciphered the COVID-19 code so that we know where the virus originated: People living in Coventry who look like Ian Dowie and whose favourite footballer is Richie Wellens
Tom12345 Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 1 hour ago, foxes_rule1978 said: It can travel via a cough, if you have ever watched myth busters you will know how infectious that is... it is similar to cold/flu, very contiguous. A whole room gets covered by a cough, the droplets have a tendency to travel in the air I think we don’t disagree, just that I was clarifying this is not airborne. Please see another post of mine: “It is not really what you would regard as an airborne virus like measles.

murphy Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 When I was a kid, if any other kids got measles then all the other kids would be invited round in the hope that they would catch it too as it is a much nastier disease in later life and you can't catch it twice. By the same principle, we should deliberately infect all footballers and playing staff with some exceptions (not you Woy), suspend the season for 3 weeks and off we go again. Problem solved.
Super_horns Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 Way our players get injured at the drop of a hat they'll probably pick this up on Saturday!!

Except you can apparently be reinfected by Covid-19. So not such a great master plan really.

Well that might be a fatal flaw in the plan, but really? Are you sure? Normally you can't get infected by the same virus twice as you develop antibodies against it.

I think it has already split into different strains, which means you can get one form and then another... flu is the same, it is possible to get multiple strains

We will likely be affected by this pandemic for much longer than 'a few weeks'.

Once you have it , your body will have a defence against it. At the moment everyone is open to getting it thats why its so contagious.
