A patient's relative showed me a tweet he had just read By an Australian twitterer called something like Busty Broad
This is what she said
" If anyone knocks on your door saying that they need to feel your boobs to test for coronovirus ,
It's a con....
I feel so stupid!"

    3. Over here the tv medical drama shows are donating their stash of masks to the local hospitals because shooting their shows have been halted. Authorities are also asking building trades to donate unused masks normally used during demolition or painting jobs.

  5. Very cute, John! And yes, we Aussies can be a bit naughty at times.
    But a good laugh helps as much as anything.

  6. Reminds me of when I was told to bend over and be checked. I asked "Are you sure this is how one gets checked for the coronavirus?"

    Ah, the very type mask I wore during my years of working in the operating room (theater or theatre!) that we call "surgery".

    Your eyes still look so very kind, John.

    Hang in there during those night shifts and daytime sleeping.

    Hugs!

    you boomers are shutting down the entire economy because you're afraid of a flu. Seriously, can you boomers kill yourselves? You are the most selfish generation to ever exist. You don't give a shit about climate change, why should we young people give a shit if you get sick and die of some virus? I HOPE the virus gets much stronger and kills you all.
