Coronavirus: COVID-19

In the lol but true department ESPN is showing eight hours straight of nothing but Roger Clemens striking people out. 20,000 strike outs. That’s over 1000 baseball games worth of outs without a single hit. Goddamn they’re desperate.

260 people in the UK died in the past 24 hours after testing positive for COVID-19.

It looks like we are on that curve upwards now and the big numbers are coming.

A slight correction re my mortuary post yesterday, the mortuary being built at Birmingham Airport will have a 12,000 capacity upon expansion.

You need to get on the ESPN Ocho. The other day I saw a hamburger eating contest, Tetris competition, and something called "Stupid Robot Fighting".

If only this were a decade ago StarCraft's time would be nigh.

Dear customers,

If you must cough, don't. It scares the **** out of us.

Thanks,

My chest STILL hurts. Not bad. Just like an annoying tightness. Today has been the worst for some reason. I haven't really been looking at the news or anything which has been causing my chest to hurt but today is starting to worry me a little bit. I've been eating so much healthier the past few months and while I'm not exercising much at all, I don't see how this could be anything other than stress. That, or I have Covid and have no other symptoms other than chest aches, which is not out of the realm of possibilities.

Am I having a f*cking heart attack guys?

I was having chest tightness this week that turned out to be from back problems caused by exercising less/sitting too much. Maybe try out some back stretches?

I suggest heavy drinking.

If I had to bet I’d bet we both have what have been so far mild cases. I’ve had bronchitis type symptoms for three weeks. I read that people “crash” very suddenly so I’m waiting for it and hoping it doesn’t happen.

That NY Times article saying it’s also attacking the heart really bothered me.

Stress is terrible for your immune system, too.

What can you do?
