Not that we want people to become hypochondriacs



Three cases of the Indian strain of the virus, which is classed as a ‘variant of concern’, were confirmed in the Glossop area with a further case found in the Derbyshire Dales...

The main coronavirus symptoms are a high temperature, a new continuous cough and a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste. But some people in the Long Eaton area who tested positive for the virus reported experiencing other symptoms including tummy ache, sore throat, loss of appetite, diarrhoea, feeling or being sick, headaches, joint pain, runny nose, sneezing, feeling drowsy, tiredness, muscle aches or generally feeling poorly.

People in the Derbyshire Dales and Glossop area are being advised to look out for these symptoms as they may be a sign that they have got coronavirus.

Just that normal Sunday morning feeling. Remember those.

Can Boris and Co start giving all these variants proper names, like they do 'storms'?

The first one could be Chopper (short for chop-suey), and then we can have Bhagi short for some odd dish near the rice section!

Then we'd all have a game to suggest what happens when we get the US version!

Other symptoms include boredom, getting stuck behind the elderly cash-payer in supermarket checkouts, filling your car with the wrong kind of fuel, finding fox poo on your lawn, and fancying that woman who has just moved into number forty-six.

Doonhamer - I remember the Monday morning feeling although at the time I didn't know it was a Covid-19 symptom.

Scrobs - or we could have "Matt" for the variant where there is no known vaccine.

Sam - or just looking out of the window onto a cold, wet day in May.
