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?


answers on a postcard to guesswork.com


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