Went out for the first time on the bike today,I don't stop anywhere and if I do get a pull I'll explain that it really helps my hips,this is not bullshit,I had a double hip op 3years ago and I find after a ride because of the widish nature of the seat it splays my pelvic area and eases the stiffness I sometimes get and that to me is the same as daily exercise and whether it's not classed as an essential journey is neither here or there as far as I'm concerned. It'll be interesting what response I get if I do get stopped.

I am getting tested tomorrow to see if I have it.[size=78%] [/size]
[/size]
[/size][size=78%][/size][/size][size=78%]I know two people that have had it confirmed. One of the nurses , 40 years old,  that works with my wife in child pediatric services, ( my wife does the admin organising the clinics ), she actually lives next to us and was confirmed as having it 3 weeks ago. She could hardly get out of bed for a week, felt totally knackered , ached all over, extremely bad headaches, no breathing problems. She says she feels fine now, no lasting effects.[/size]


The other person I know that is confirmed is still in hospital, an old biking mate , 62 years old, that moved down south is still in hospital. Been in for over two weeks , not ventilated but on oxygen all the time, his wife says he doesn't seem to get any etter or worse. He suffers from copd, is very over weight,, high blood pressure.

Are you getting tested out of curiosity or are you showing symptoms? ?
Either way hope it comes back clear mate


Re: Auld Foccers Weekly Covid Check in Page. - VNA - 30-04-20

Quote:Are you getting tested out of curiosity
FYI

To summerise the advice I have had;

Present yourself for testing within three days of coronavirus symptoms appearing.  Do not present yourself for testing after day five.  Testing after day five will only take place for a specific reason as agreed by local microbiologists.


The advice may differ in England and Wales, and Northern Ireland.

Bit of both really, very mild symptoms for a couple days, but it could be any normal bug .
I got offered the chance for the test through this app,  https://covid.joinzoe.com/,  either home test kit or go to one of the drive thru centres. There is a test centre less than 10 miles from me so went there today. It was well organised, mixture of nhs and army staff plus others making sure you followed the correct procedure.
A swab  as far back in your mouth as they could and then another up nose.
You are meant to get results within 48 hours but it can take up to 5 days.


The test centre was very quiet, there were 5 bays, no cars in any of them, I was in straight away, saw two more cars pulling in as I was leaving.  Took less than 10 minutes from having my ID checked to driving out. When I went to book it on the website  there were plenty of empty slots.


The app I have given a link to, if anybody wants to have a look at it,  is just a symptom  tracker, there are about 2.5 million people using it, there is more info on the website.


VNA, I think the 3 to 5 day testing advice was correct until recently as now the push seems to be getting as many people tested as possible.


Apologies to Oldgit for hijacking your thread a bit.

That’s the Scottish government advice, which I get in my inbox straight away at work.  So, may well be different in England and Wales. 



Anyway, fingers crossed your test comes back negative, or if it does come back positive hopefully you are one of the ones that shakes it off nae bother.  Anyway hang in there.
