Coronavirus 2019-2020 thread (no unsubstantiated rumours!)

Are you a proctologist? I'm told they have the most amusing stories of all medical specialists.

Nowhere near that senior level of specialisation.

But have seen and heard about "that" type of case in emergency room a couple of times.

I think emergency department doctors have by far the most stuff to tell.

It is the actual job of the gastro surgeons to remove foreign objects, but probably 95% of the time they're not doing anything "amusing" like that, they're just cutting intestines on ppl with cancer or advanced inflammation.

It was literally a million to one chance that that miniature bust of Napoleon Bonaparte happened to be on that exact spot on the sofa when I sat down. It could have happened to anyone.

“”The area is home to many poorer itinerant labourers. They have complained of not being paid if they are unable to turn up for work, and of food shortages and skyrocketing prices while living under Covid control measures.
For several nights, they'd been tussling with the white-clad Covid prevention enforcement officials, and then overnight on Monday the anger suddenly exploded onto the streets of Guangzhou with a mass act of defiance.””

They need to better communicate and control rumours

"
Again, unsubstantiated rumours have played a role. Stories have spread that the testing companies are faking PCR results to artificially boost the number of infections in order to make more money.
In the north of the country, the coronavirus rumour mill is also building pressure.
Officials in Hebei Province announced that the city of Shijiazhuang would halt mass testing. But this led to speculation that the population was going to be used, guinea-pig-style, to monitor what would happen if the virus was allowed to spread unchecked."

The smell of CIA could not be more obvious.
