Over in Marbella, Costa del sol, Spain, construction work on new mansions may have been put on hold. But...dog walkers gardeners, security staff and maids in many areas are still seen out and about. Essential work, eh?! And Spain overall is having a very very tough time at the moment, second only to Italy I believe.

In a sense then the test has less value than the MOT annual test carried out on vehicles 3plus years old. At least with those you get 'Advisory' comments which are telling the vehicle owner of potential problems which need sorting in the short term. Though I accept that the value of a car cannot be compared to the value of someones life. Though a faulty car can kill, quite obviously.

My father in law was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in 1980 and he lived for a further 15 years. At the time of his diagnosis the prognosis was 2 to 4 years. He was a very modest man despite being the youngest of 13 children and becoming a Family Solicitor (eventually managing his own practice). Not for him the University route, he had to study in the evenings, often in the family bathroom! (

This may seem like a silly question but suppose I had a test and the results showed that all is well, how soon would I have to re-test. I assume they are only accurate for the day in question.

Its interesting to note the downward trend in the various prediction models. So the US from 2.2 million to 200,000 And in the UK 500,000 to 20,000. The models took into account the measures imposed by Governments. No time for complacency of course (especially in regards to third world countries).

QuoteMAF Just found this written in the news: Dr. Anthony Fauci (NIAID) told CNN "State of the Union": Millions of Americans will be infected with the coronavirus and 100,000 to 200,000 will die. The predictions (same in the UK) come with lots of caveats of course, the impact of measures taken etc. Hence the wide ranging figures. No one can predict with any degree of confidence.

File under: Tabloid speculation. In reality, no one knows what donations have been made except where those concerned have chosen to make public their 'contribution'. Or via their own registered charity (as in the case of The Estate of George Harrison). For all we know, Stones Inc and/or The Directors may well have gifted some monies.
