dr. trump suggesting we have injections of disinfectant to cure us of c19

i wish the orange monkey would listen to his own advise, he'd have been dead three times over by now and we wouldn't have to listen to any more of his lunatic ravings

although to be fair it'll lead to a few less idiot trump supporters and some great entries in this years darwin awards

Also, I swear it's getting longer each week as people don't want to be the first to turn tail and close their doors for fear of being the least fawning towards the NHS.

It felt like this on our road until last night which to be honest felt a bit half-arsed for some reason.

Saw a post somewhere else calling the whole sky lantern thing out. The original was a sponsored post from a company that makes the sky lanterns saying it would be a great idea to put them up for the NHS and where to buy them on their site. Then a long explanation of why it would be a terrible idea to release an open flame at such a dry time when services are already being stretched.

Lady on the Zwift group ride this morning went to a private clinic in Fulham and had antibody (antigen?) tests for her entire family, she and her husband had had C19 as had one child, but not the other.

How long until trump supporters are hospitalised with bleach in their veins and lightbulbs up their arses?

Is there private antibody testing now? I thought they weren't reliable?

maybe I'm being paranoid

pushing home a heavily laden bike with a pizza rack

Time to get some Backrollers then? Fruit, veg, bread etc on pizza rack plus two Backrollers filled to the brim with denser foodstuffs is just about the same amount of shopping you can put in the back of a Fiesta. Or/and:

• Get a trailer.
  
• Get a cargobike.
  
• Convert a discarded foldable wheelchair into a stowaway sidecar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICoIRy_SFyE&t=398s
  
  
• Get one of those two-wheel shopping trolleys with a telescopic handle and attach to rack with a bungee.

Yeah, you are - everybody's been saying it.

People still smoke through the breathing hole cut in their throats outside hospitals, so not particularly surprised...

Risk of false negative, lady said.

They’ll still take your money tho

Worse is false positive

Tempted to do it.

False negatives could explain the results her family got.

Not sure what the point of this.

If reinfection can occur regardless of positive result?

That’s interesting. Is the test a swab or blood? They should be widely available.

Can I send off for one somewhere?

Buy fake scrubs and permanently walk...

One does not not simply walk into PPE.jpeg

According to Radio 2 the other day (Jeremy Vine, can't remember which day as they're all blurring into one) some UK pharmacies have blood based tests available for purchase. Home use and a result in 10 minutes or so. No idea of the specificity of sensitivity of those tests (those are the two values that will affect the resulting accuracy of the result).
