He's a chef on the My kitchen rules show that he hosts with that other French? guy.
That's one person that should never be believed as he has no idea about the things he promotes and they are usually bad ideas.
My OH watched/watches it sometimes so no idea if the show is still running.

I know the one. It's where the other contestants get to objectively rate their competitors' food. Never watched it, but.
Mind you, the new Masterchef where failed competitors come back seems to have missed the point of the show. That it is for amateur cooks. Which none of the current crop of contestants are.
I'll watch it. I want to see Poh go down. She never should have made it as far as she did first time round.

From the reports, I think it is not proven that the patients are actually being reinfected.
They obviously had a couple of negative tests but it could be that their bodies are still shedding some of the virus.
Personally, I wouldn't be taking a new positive test on a patient within a month or two as evidence they have been 'reinfected'. I'd think it is probably more likely to be from the initial infection.
If we have people returning to normal, being well but then coming down with it again in 6 months or a year, then we will have a new worry, but I don't think there has been enough time to tell yet what sort of immunity period people can expect.

Sadly some people actually believe all this rubbish. That is what you get when population is not educated and cannot judge. All what these scammers have to do is issue string of meaningles words and people are impressed. 😞

The thought is the virus has reactivated within the patients after showing as being virus free.
That's scary. The virus may be far more clever than we thought.
To think you have had it and healthy now then in 1,2,5 years suddenly it comes back without having been in contact with anyone.
I don't know if that is posssible but it makes you realise the reasons the experts have taken this virus so seriously.
I initially thought, well if I get it I will do all to get healthy again and then perhaps I am protected against it.
Now I simply don't want to get it at all.

100 doctors and 30 nurses have died of coronavirus in Italy. Some of the doctors came out of retirement at the request of the Government to help. Very sad.

Trump praises US response?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL
The USA has now 501,272 cases and 18,666 death, which is only 200 behind Italy. That means by tomorrow they will be far ahead in every respect. That is just official numbers; nobody knows the real numbers as in many places there are no test kits available, and Trump is now stopping federal funding for testing; it will be up to the states to bid against each other for kits and PPE. In meanwhile farmers are dumping their produce as they cannot get anybody to harvest, and people in cities queue for hours to get into supermarkets with empty shelves. And that is only those who still have some money to spend; the really poor depend on charity handouts.
We are so lucky, and so much more civilized. Although I am bit worried about our fresh produce supply; my daughter bought 1/2 bunch of celery for $7
, in one of the cheapest places around.
So I ordered some seeds. Planted some broccolli the other day and they seem to be all coming up.
