In my biking days we used to visit a B&B owned & run by a lovely guy from Rugby.

However, the B&B was near Wissen in Germany, and he'd left the UK to live there.

In proper British style he had a "garden party" every year to which all his friends etc. were invited

. Much food and alcohol was consumed and the language spoken was English as it was his party.

However, if he went to see anyone who was at the party, professionally then everything was in German. Talk was in German, all documents were in German etc. etc. And there was never any thought of anything being translated into any other language. If you can't speak/read German then it's your job to get an interpreter or have the documents translated.

And the B&B owner thought that was entirely correct and as he was in Germany then he completely expected everything to be in German.

It leaves sufferers very vulnerable and it has been found to seriously affect patients with C-19 and is resistant to treatments for the C-19 virus.
Does anybody know anything more?

We are in for a long haul it seems. I wonder for how long this been known or suspected. It certainly, if true, goes some way to explaining the fearful looks on ministers’ faces.

Also known as “Black Fungus” treated with Amphotericin, low supplies in India.

I sit watching the weather report from Carol and her indoors later asks "What's happening with the weather today?" and I honestly have no idea whatsoever!
