But the road is not lined with Corona Virus and being picked up by tyres and flicked onto you.

Had a mail from polaris promoting a pandemic sale.
Not sure which self regarding marketing whizz (mails come from hannah) is in charge these days but seem to remember them doing another dodgy promo a while ago - i posted it here.
Tempted to ask them if their often nifty designs will allow their bike luggage and bags to convert to body bags for elderly relatives.

wouldn't the only risk be at the cafe stop?
I posted this in the main virus thread but perhaps more appropriate here.

My guess is the chances of catching Coronavirus are the same as catching any other type of flu

Exactly riding your bike in the lanes away from everyone you are not a risk or at risk.

Coronavirus isn't flu
As for chances of catching it, look at the R0 number.
Seasonal flu: 1.3
Covid-19: estimated between 1.4 and 4.0

In the report it says the police also nabbed a motorist for being out and about for no valid reason.

so it does.
I must admit the bicycle thing strikes me as somewhat over the top.
I suppose it avoids the police having to figure out if you are interacting with anyone from another comune.

Apparently, the chinese are close to produce a vaccin for it. It should be ready in April but then how long before it is available to the rest of the world?

I read it somewhere this morning but can't remember where, sorry. Maybe it is false information to make us feel better and more positive about it ?
