    It looks like he's already overpaid for that burger so maybe they thought they may as well rinse him for a few extra quid.

    Standard for Dublin 4, or Dublin in general, but loads of places are pulling this stroke.

    Anyway, €3.20 for a 350ml sparkling water or €3.15 for a splash of MiWadi (Robinsons) in tap water are bigger crimes than the burger.

    There was a good Jay Rayner line once about an overpriced burger/steak: 'For that price, I'd at the very least expect the cow to be led under the table and pleasure me while I ate'.

    My daughter has had a runny nose for a few days, but today has completely crashed and has both a temperature and a cough aswel as complete lethargy. So just called 111 and had a dr call us back. His advice was "it's probably a virus". Well fuck me doc, why hadn't we thought of that?

    I asked what we do about Nursery and he just said "keep her home if she seems out of sorts". Err, yeah, obviously. It was more to clarify if she / we should be isolating. Apparently not.

    I mean, i'm 99% sure it's a cold, but we called because thats what you're supposed to do if there are symptoms and it was a complete waste of time. We have symptoms in the house but we're free to crack on. Cool.

    Edit: Yeah. She's 4, the test is 5+.

    We were testing all ages. You should all be self-isolating if those are her symptoms (unless the guidance has dramatically changed while I wasn't looking, I don't actually pay much attention).

    Runny nose should hopefully reassure you that it's likely a common cold, or variance thereof.

    But it does raise the fact that so many people have not been ill with any lergy recently due to lockdown/shielding. It's going to be carnage come this winter when everyone's immunity is so low that we'll be catching all sorts.

    We're up to 205 (652 in total) cases since the latest outbreak, with 6 deaths.
    Currently, more than 133,000 people have been quarantined, including 1,258 people quarantined at hospital, 20,427 people at quarantine areas and 111,594 at home.



    Masks are mandatory again in HCMC from tomorrow. Fines from 110,000-330,000 ($5-15) - not quite sure why there is a sliding scale.

    We added sickness and diarrhoea over night so guess it's just a good old sickness bug.

    It's heartening to see our native species are still thriving.

    The WHO with another absolutely impartial assessment.

    We have further comments from David Nabarro, the WHO's special envoy on Covid-19, on the coronavirus outbreak, including his assessment of the UK's response.

    He told the BBC: "I’m saying that Britain is going to do really well because I'm seeing evidence that there is, firstly, really good attention to where the virus is locally, secondly, a lot of public engagement in getting on top of it and thirdly, wherever I am looking now, I am seeing evidence that different parts of society are pulling together and saying we are going to get on top of this."

    He added that "nobody wants to go through further lockdowns".

    "The economy has taken a big hit and we've got to make absolutely certain that economic recovery can happen, and that means getting ahead of the virus," he said.

    He said countries that had a particularly good response to the dealing with the virus included Singapore, South Korea, China and Vietnam.

    Did the WHO come into this with a good reputation? Because they're going to come out of it a laughing stock.

    The WHO is basically like any other international organisation - lovely to pay lip service to in times of plenty, but when you actually need it it becomes completely powerless because countries, quite rightly, do what's best for them.

    I have never paid much attention to them, but they always seem to do quite well with Ebola and other outbreaks. Weren't they also quite important for HIV awareness @phonics?

    I don't know... I just had them pegged as being quite good before this shit.

    China having demonstrated "a particularly good response to dealing with the virus" is going to keep me in lols for weeks.

    To still be maintaining that at this stage when it's manifestly clear that they started the fucking thing, lied about it, tried to cover it up and then silenced any brave whistleblowers, is unreal.
