A near coronavirus death.
I was walking along the footpath and a hoodie was running towards me. He was over-doing the social distancing thing and ran about 10 meters out onto the road to avoid me. Unfortunately for the hoodie he didn't think to look to see if a car was coming, and having the hood up certainly didn't help. He was missed by millimeters, but if he was hit and died I wonder if it would be considered a coronavirus death and added to our stat's.

Oh man. Hoodies. My pet peeve is see them behind the wheel, pulled up all the way, with zero peripheral vision ... should be illegal.

People are panicking. Just yesterday our local news service interviewed an Asian lady who was flying back to Taiwan. She was wearing a full white hazmat suit with hood, goggles and surgical mask. She looked ridiculous walking through the airport terminal.

I would not fly without an N95 mask right now. Who knows who will sit next or behind you for 12 hours asymptomatic but shedding the virus? Guy will go: Cough - sneeze ... oh, I did it in my elbow - I feel fine - no problem!

A lot of the people flying right now are the 20-somethings who knew better, and carried on with their holidays. Now they say the government should get them home LOL and rescue them from their own stupidity. But the problem is they probably are infected from staying in a backpacker type hotel and drinking from the same bottle at the beach party. They don't show any symptoms but pass it onto us and kill us in the process
