For some reason people are told to sing Happy Birthday while washing hands instead of: If You're Happy and you Know it wash your Hands.

You should sing Friday I'm in Love while washing your hands.

I think we should all sing REM's "it's the end of the world as we know it" while washing our hands(a song that was 33 years ahead of it's time).

So one of our MPs has it, she met with Bojo a few days ago and they're all going to cram into the Houses of Parliament today for the budget speech. Is this a good idea?

While people are freaking out with useless and quite often damaging anti-bacterials all over the place and themselves and "killing 99% of all known household germs" as the British tv Domestos ad used to say, it is a very good time to remind people that we live in an extremely necessary symbiosis with bacteria, they protect us from a lot and keeo us healthy in many ways, but most importantly bacteria can and do attack viruses, for example, the CRISPR-Cas system in some bacteria helps to form an effective barrier to invading viruses.These viruses – known as phages – attach to the surface of bacterial cells, inject their genetic material, and use the cells' enzymes to multiply while destroying their hosts.
Just sayin'

It's neither. The whole thing is financed by George Soros. From an ideological point of view, the Klimazi's (Al Gore, Gretel Thunberg and the Franzlführer1 a.o.) are the ones who benefit most from it. This Corona thing helps to reduce flights (exactly what Franzl wants to impose on European citizens) and CO2.

^Not yet, but when the virus affects me and my body starts aching, I might make a dash for the nearest willow tree. I read this morning that we're about to run out of paracetamol already .

Our (Turkey's) authorities acknowledged the first COVID-19 case like yesterday and madness has begun. The first visible sign: People are stocking up on cologne and food.

Together with regular hygiene practices like washing your hands using a soap, avoiding touching your face outdoors etc., experts also advised the use of cologne here. It seems most people are convinced. I'll only wash my hands a little more often than normal, instead. That should -or hopefully would- suffice.

Presumably alcohol based? Myself I'm using 18 year old single malt.
