Picture: Al Bello/Getty Images/AFP• When the virus is attached to airborne droplets like moisture from coughs and sneezes, fog, dust or medical gases, it can survive up to three hours.

3 days? 3 days? Seriously, 3 days? 3 days? No seriously? I buy groceries and what? Need to wash the lot? or remember not to touch face for a full, 3 days after a grocery run? Like.......... what? This can't be real.
Don’t know what to believe anymore, you wankers said that people shouldn’t use face masks based on ‘experts’ That was very bloody wrong. Funny how ‘experts’ always come out of the woodwork for any particular cause. Yet they’re never interviewed, just faceless people

Coronavirus lockdown: When can you leave your home?As Australia goes into stage three lockdown and authorities begin to enforce stricter social distancing restrictions, many remain confused over reasons for leaving the home. I think someone also needs to explain it to the cops too. ScottMorrisonMP The government needs to be careful re calling too early 'the flattening of the curve' Aussies have a tendency to drop their guard of care at any call of better.
