Gay clubs closed today are they? HIV and Corona will be fun.

I remember when the HIV insertion was first announced, someone commented that China had made "Airbourne Aids", good game China good game.

Interesting facts about the proximity of the Wuhan Bioweapons Lab to the wet market and also they were selling bats used in the lab to the wet market....

Hi all, for these foreign kiters traveling in Spain (Tarifa or any other kiting spots) confused for the situation.

Please, note that from now, to go to the beach is not allow. Government has declared Spain as Alarm State. You only can walk or drive in the street to work or buy first need goods.

All of us hope this situation was solved very soon.

Not being able to kite or golf should be the last of your concerns

It does seem that the seriousness of this epidemic is finally sinking into UK public brains. My wife is medical so it's very likely that I'm going to be infected. Fortunately I have no preexisting health conditions *

* Approx. death rates for pre-existing conditions:

10.5% Heart disease
7.3% Diabetes
6.3% Chronic respiratory disease
6.0% High blood pressure
5.6% Cancer
0.9% None

These probabilities are additive. For example, if you have diabetes and high blood pressure then probability of death is at least 13.3%.
