In my cellar (bunker) I have stocked up on......
10,000 cans of soup
10,000 tins of beans
10,000 litres of water
5,000 packets of wet wipes
Chemical toilet
Wind-up flash lights
50 old Penthouse magazines
And a very powerful air rifle to shoot desperate survivors like you if you try to break in.
Anything else I should consider?
With 10,000 tins of beans and the old Jazz mages you're going to need more wipes!

What do you mean, Wicked Wanda was an intellectually challenging read
Thanks for the suggestions, one can of air freshener ordered, however the mags were laminated 30+ years ago.

We got told...by our son, who is in the same class as the boy being tested. Not panicking until it is confirmed, more worried about whether his sister has immunity to Mumps. Rife at her Uni and all the cases she knows personally have had all their vaccinations (proof of vaccination is a course requirement).

Hope they deal with it better than the useless authorities have over here, breeding it on a cruise ship then sending them on their merry way into the community. Then Abe (the PM) uses a much-built up speech to the nation to tell us all to take care and avoid going to parties and other such get-togethers without any policies on how to deal with a looming outbreak. Then one day later (today) he suddenly announces the closure of all education centres for a month starting next Monday. All sports events (including the J-League), festivals and concerts cancelled too, though the sumo and horse racing are held behind closed doors. Soon, the restaurants and shops might be shut, they reckon.
I wonder if Azul could send me some of his hoard? (Though slightly more modern jazz mags would be appreciated).

Probably best catch the virus early on anyway while heath services are still functioning
Re: cans, would do but the world shipping industry is collapsing and I can’t get them to you until 2022

Probably just trying to get a few days off school by getting it shut and thinking he's clever. Then you have the good old social media frenzy where no one has actually checked into things and let it get in the way of a good rant on Facebook.

Nah, no worries, we've got a Boris.
It's just that with half the country flooded and the other half calling 111 every time they sneeze no one can find him...

He has got a few days off, courtesy of a cold... and his parents thinking they ought to get him tested just in case because they had a half-term holiday in an, as yet, unaffected part of Italy. He's not a 'suspected case' just a 'we'd better test just in case'
Either looking to cause a bit of mischief, for a bit of fame or trying to get his mates off school so they were free to play CoD whilst he's stuck at home.
