The BBC have announced that two patients in the UK have been diagnosed with the coronavirus.

No further details have been given other than they are both members of the same family and are receiving specialist NHS care.

 

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-51325192

 

At present, 83 Britons and 27 foreign nationals are flying back to the UK from Wuhan, the Chinese city at the centre of the outbreak.

The flight is due to land at RAF Brize Norton at 13:30 GMT.

The UK passengers will then be taken to Arrowe Park Hospital on the Wirral and quarantined for two weeks.

I opened the last pack of 24 on 17 Dec 2018 and I've still got 4 left.. so forgive me if I don't use both sides.. although that would make my carbon footprint even smaller.. good thinking! 😉


20 rolls used from 17 Dec 2018 - 29 Mar 2020 =

20 rolls used in 468 days = 

1 roll in 23.4 days.

 

1 roll - 200 sheets = 23.4 days =

100 sheets = 11.7days =

10 sheets = 1.17 days...

 

so 10 sheets a day yahoo

🤣 very impressive Maths calculations! and forward planning... which is handy here as loo-rolls are still, currently, luxury items... 😃

I read somewhere that, in an EU country, (which is few weeks behind UK ref COVID-19 's development), people are installing bidets in preparation...

I believe laughter is a great medicine (after 20 seconds hands washing)... 😃🙂👍
