I think before long they will insist on masks in public. That would be good as you would not feel silly if everyone was wearing them.

When we were on our way to a hospital appointment for OH yesterday, an elderly couple past us in a car both wearing masks. I think it was sensible if they have underlying health issues

I'm not concerned in the house - plenty of soap and water but it's when you are out.

We were keeping some in the car but that will run out soon.

I think I'm more annoyed at the dismissive way they say we can't get any and don't know when it will be available :-| :-| :-|

Normal soap is just as good - it's the washing that's important - change hand towels and washing up towels every day a spot of dettol won't go amiss in the wash.

Soap and hot water has proven much more effective at killing germs than anti-bacterial cleaners. I tend to use both though, one after the other :-D :-D

But the sanitizer has Alcohol in which is what you need especially if you are out

It’s crazy Von..can’t get it anywhere here now, but I think soap and water is just as good. My local Home Bargains/the girls were saying people were buying 30 bottles in one go :-0 :-0

The next engineer that come here to fit the boiler part will have a shock when I confront him at the door wearing a mask and insisting I put hand sanitiser on his hands! :-D :-D :-D

Yes, I have some of that Ann, thanks. It was not strong enough for me when I had a very bad outbreak of eczema some years ago but it seems to be doing the trick now :-)

So far! :-D

I'm annoyed that there isn't more of an effort to replenish stocks of hand sanitiser :-0

I mean they don't have access to soap and water in the shops :-| :-| :-|

I think it won't stop until everyone has had it. But it's vulnerable people that will be hit the hardest.

I've never worried before. Not about Swine Flu or Sars. But I am worried about this one

Good idea re smart motorways Von. I am pleased because my children and two grandchildren travel on them regularly.
