Coronavirus...post your thoughts here...

There was a thing on the news about this. Apparently the virus causes little blood clots around the body, including in the brain and other organs. The blood clots in the brain are causing mini strokes, which in turn is causing brain damage, and people are developing symptoms similar to stroke victims.

It doesnt seem to say the percentage of people who had lung issues eventually get these other issues though. My friend had covid and now he can't breath so well when walking around, he gets out of breath just walking.

Just finished the weekend water changes in the 3 smaller tanks. That's 110 litres changed and now refilling the RO. Not sure I'll have the time for this hobby if / when I have to go back to spending work days in an office away from home

I have found myself spending more time around my tanks during QT. Usually, I have a lot of activities during the week.

You should run around the house naked and the next time the cops show up, stare at them, or turn around and moon them.

That’s what you call 100% IQ or you can do the same dance the banana does

forgot to add, make sure you are naked but wear a face mask so you comply with the law.

Well the virus is taking its toll on me. I don't have it but can't go outside for fear of catching it. I am out of heart medication and the doctors won't send a script to the chemist so my blood pressure is up, as is my stress level. They want me to go into a doctor's clinic with sick people and get a full check up. I can't go outside and I'm sure as hell not going into a room full of sick people. I have had enough of this and everything else. I hope you all survive this and keep up the good work with your fish, but for me it's over. I'm so fed up with everything.
