Yes they have, fortunately.
Newspapers are a source of viral infection at any time. I never pick one up off the top of the pile, always go about six down.I hardly see anyone bar going for a paper in the mornings but tested +ve yesterday. Been feeling off colour for a few days but none of the Covid symptoms, ie i've been shivering, not hot, taste and smell are fine, no continuous cough. Felt horrendous on monday night and got tested yetserday. +ve. Yesterday and last night were grim, I never usually get ill so not got a lot to compare it too but I've never felt so bad. Shivering so much the bed was shaking whilst also pouring with sweat, everything hurts including feeling like i've been kicked in the rubbish, dizzy, struggled to stand, and time seemed to have gone funny, like if I moved my head to the side it took a while for vision to catch up. Slept fitfully all day yesterday through til 11 this morn. Fortunately starting to feel a bit better now but people claiming it doesn't exist are deluded. I've kept away from my parents who live just across the yard and thank god I did. They're in their 70s and this would have finished them off.
Yes like blotting paper soaking up snot .Newspapers are a source of viral infection at any time. I never pick one up off the top of the pile, always go about six down.
youve certainly got a way with words...........Yes like blotting paper soaking up snot .
You`ve only got to go into the paper shop/supermarket and watch the builder boys with their bumcracks exposed. gathering their high carb snacks and thumbing through the papers and mags to know where the viral pool is being stoked.youve certainly got a way with words...........
And plenty of fat lads on that jobInterestingly the construction industry has not suffered any lockdown restrictions since day one.![]()

Thus slaughterhouses and industries where the environment is naturally cool and high humidity. I thought we had passed that phase. Maybe not but how is collecting the newspaper dangerous?Lurgies such as norovirus might be spread via paper, but covid-19 doesn't like dry, absorbent, surfaces cos it rapidly dehydrates.
An asymptomatic shedder of covid-19 coming into a space that isn't best ventilated would be more likely as a source.

No restriction on associated supply trades either.Is that correct?
No building here during the “proper” lockdown
I read that it can survive for several days on newspaper but it was just on one of those things that get shared on Facebook so not anything to take too seriously.Lurgies such as norovirus might be spread via paper, but covid-19 doesn't like dry, absorbent, surfaces cos it rapidly dehydrates.

About the worst thing you can do is put unwashed hands anywhere near your face....... yours or anyone else`s.
I think a lot of us that touched our faces without thinking have changed now to automatically avoiding all facial contact when out of the house.About the worst thing you can do is put unwashed hands anywhere near your face....... yours or anyone else`s.
