CMO confirms cases of coronavirus in England
Chief Medical Officer, Professor Chris Whitty, statement about cases of novel coronavirus in England.
If they're underground markets, doesn't that mean they're already banned?When they ban underground Live animal markets this will put an end to it all, once and for all.
Well, I suppose it had to arrive at some point, our local public schools have a large Asian pupil base and the local rag said they're testing them just in case.

I doubt that will ever happen effectively, as many Chinese like to select their meat live and then have it killed in front of them.
This outbreak probably won't deter forever, and in time the process will still have a market and return. The danger will always be there.
Not sure how you will manage to eat your stir fry dressed in the necessary protective gear.I was planning to cook a chinese stir fry this evening. Should I cancel it and have fish and chips?
How would it be if they are part of a large family, some went home for Chinese new year, now have the virus and kids get it and start dying? How do you think the disease will get here from China?Well, I suppose it had to arrive at some point, our local public schools have a large Asian pupil base and the local rag said they're testing them just in case.
Who's on first.So who did declare it?![]()
I am finding very difficult to be concerned with this issue given the deaths from ordinary flu annually run into the hundreds of thousand whereas this has caused a couple of hundred and its predecessor, SARS less than a thousand.
But I accept I might not fully understand the issues.

Not sure it is just the media, society today is full of nambi pambi snowflakes who go over the top whenever there is a scare of any sort. You can bet loads of the chattering classes have been out buying masks.As usual the media are over-hyping it to sell more papers, as they do with everything.
That does sound yummy.You may be okay if you replace the Tuscany Fried Bat with Badger Spleens and Otter Noses![]()

makes me fudgeing angry that current Chinese demand for this crap, only for status/appearance and their quack medicine - is seriously putting numerous species in perilThe standard meat isn't the problem. Its the historical health rubbish they believe such as bat wings, tadpoles, frogs hearts etc that's what needs banning as that's the cause of all these diseases
