And now hair loss? http://www.msn.com/en-gb/health/medical/hair-loss-emerges-as-latest-long-term-covid-19-symptom/ar-BB17PVLu?li=BBoPWjQ&ocid=ASUDHP

Would be interested to have an idea of how much has been updated since the 2017 version, which is the one I've got.

"Capable of", or actually do transmit? Transmit, or merely emit? As someone's pointed out before, if they're simply emitting then many of them will be doing so at 2-3-4 feet from the ground, where they're less likely to be inhaled by an adult of average height. Sounds almost as though they're...

And why masks with valves are being banned: http://www.msn.com/en-gb/lifestyle/style/why-do-some-face-masks-have-valves-and-why-are-they-being-banned/ar-BB17Hlvh?li=BBoPWjQ&ocid=ASUDHP

Although the chaplains, of whatever sort, don't claim to be healing anything, so is it actually the same category?

Suppose this is probably the best place: BBC1 showed a programme last night called "Surviving the Virus: My Brother and Me". I came in part-way through it, but what I saw looked good and convincing, and emphasised the severity and variability of the illness. If you're in the UK, you can catch...

Some seemingly positive results for treatment with convalescent plasma - with caveats: http://www.msn.com/en-gb/health/medical/convalescent-plasma-could-reduce-death-from-covid-19-early-data-suggests/ar-BB17BDQX?li=AAnZ9Ug&ocid=ASUDHP

Many of them don't seem to. Is it the same sort of laziness as that which just quotes people's Tweets rather than bothering to ask for a comment? That may depend on your browser, your status with the FT, and the number of articles you've already accessed. If ever you can't get at an FT...

The Guardian on (mainly UK-related) "Covid-19" death statistics and their calculation: http://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/why-has-the-uk-done-so-badly-on-covid-19-there-are-still-no-simple-answers/ar-BB17tnls?li=BBoPWjQ&ocid=ASUDHP

Oh wow, this forum has an "export thread" function. My cup runneth over! Most softwares seem to have abandoned the thought that someone might need a nice easy way of saving an entire thread :(

Exactly. If you're in church, you aren't sitting there looking at everyone else's face, so why should you do it when you're online?

Hardware shops *are* essentials. In the UK, at least, they've been one of the few places where you can get masks, cleaning and sanitising products, not to mention bits and bobs for doing vital household repairs such as lightbulbs, electricals and plumbing, any of which could be a threat to...

A (UK-oriented) summary of what we thought we knew at the time about the efficacy of face masks: http://www.msn.com/en-gb/lifestyle/style/coronavirus-how-effective-are-face-masks-at-stopping-spread/ar-BB16I09Z?li=AAnZ9Ug&ocid=ASUDHP

I was very relieved to hear it: I never understood why some people were able to isolate for only 7 days while others had to do 14 ... http://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/children-carry-covid-19-virus-small-study-finds/ar-BB17oe3A?li=AAnZ9Ug&ocid=ASUDHP

My caree got selected and volunteered to do the swab test. She found the throat part distinctly difficult to do, although the nose wasn't too bad (but it made her sneeze, which was unhelpful). You should be aware that: a) you have to book the courier first, and then do the test on the day...

The other day, my caree suggested that there might be a link between over-exertion (in this case, a phone conversation with a friend, I think) and excessive sweating. Has anyone else had any experience of this?

Updates on various aspects, particularly Coronavirus infectiousness wanes by day nine; long ICU stays linked with nerve damage http://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/coronavirus-infectiousness-wanes-by-day-nine-long-icu-stays-linked-with-nerve-damage/ar-BB17kZ83?li=BBoPWjQ&ocid=ASUDHP

There may be a better place for this, but there are concerns about possible sepsis following Covid-19: 'At risk' COVID-19 survivors warned to look out for sepsis symptoms - including six key signs...

I don't think this one actually got mentioned, did it? Symptom Duration and Risk Factors for Delayed Return to Usual Health Among Outpatients with COVID-19 in a Multistate Health Care Systems Network — United States, March–June 2020...

That's rather the sort of amount the entire UK (I think, not just England?) has been averaging :(
