    Ovidio,
    Seems to be the norm at the moment. We in the UKicon are in lockdown till probably early May which is no great shakes, except the economy and those needing pay. My lad is in the RAMC in Kenya and been there for two years, he has a lot of experience in Ebola having been in Sierra Leone helping out for 6 months last year.
    We were chatting last night, facemasks are compulsory in Kenya, if not arrested, also they have a 7pm Curfew which both together seems to be working. I personally think UV has a massive part to play in any virus plus lots of Vitamin C.
    His wife and kids were flown out by the RAF on Sunday, so lets hope things don't get worse for Africa generally because water is gold dust and washing of hands isn't top of the list sadly, drinking the water is!
    Our numbers seemed to stabilise (touch wood) over the bank holiday Easter weekend, but, to its credit and to the whole country, it was really hot in most southern counties around London and Cornwall. The 2 metre distance rule also works.
    Just going for my daily 5 miler in sunshine..........no pack, no rifle just clean fatique!! Stay Safe mate
