Re: Coronavirus

Couple of quick and easy questions for the 'experts' to answer:

1) If you test positive, then self isolate for 14 days before returning to work (without a further test I might add), does this mean you're now clear and can't spread the virus?

2) If, as is being found in quite a few cases, a large number of people (over 100) are mass tested, 80% are found to be positive with 80% of them showing no symptoms (which could be only a cough or sore throat), would it be feasible the test is picking up the 'dead and long gone' virus residue?

3) if it was possible - obviously it isn't - to test the whole UK population (lets call it 65 million) in one day, what percentage do you think would test positive with no symptoms?

can you tell I've had enough of this crap?
