Now you've got me researching - I'm on Amlopodine which I understand is a calcium channel blocker and not ACE or ARB - is that correct and is it okay in terms of covid-19?

Yeah, the issues are specifically with angiotensin drugs. The virus enters the cell through the angiotensin receptor from what I understand. 

 

Happy for the distraction tbh.

Prince Charles tests positive

This line in the BBC report about Prince Jug Ears.

”It's not a huge house but certainly big enough to isolate yourself within it. “

I take Candesartan daily. 
 

Should I be shitting my pants? 

 

Yep. Probably worth seeking medical advice rather than a random from the internet though. I do have a PhD in pharmacology, but probably from before candersartan was invented. :)

 

There's an excess of deaths associated with hypertension,  but this may be due to ACEIs and ARBs rather than the condition itself. Same with diabetes. Quite fascinating really.

Would be a positive result if it wiped out those cunts anyway.

What’s the crack with these NHS volunteers? I understand that we can’t have the NHS at breaking point but surely it flies in the face of telling people to stay in ?

The Tories are new to this socialism lark, give them some leeway ;)

Apparently due to the lack of tourists dropping their food everywhere , Venice’s seagulls have taken to hunting and scarfing down rats. 
 

Oh, nearly forgot … @Renton  :lol:

 

Believe it or not, I've noticed less sea gulls here. Another coronavirus bonus. :smoke-1:
