We just don't know do we. I went Golfing in Spain mid Feb and....

....came back feeling s**t as did a couple of the mates I went with. Cough + Aches / Pains / General Weakness. Bad enough to contact my GP and have some blood tests. They came up negative for everything tested and after 5 days I felt better. Still do (touch wood) but this was just prior to the Coronavirus outbreak so I never considered it was that and to my knowledge wasn't tested for it.

However it could well have been - though in fairness if it had been I suspect I would have infected a whole load near where I live and in the pub (remember pubs....). And that's one of the main problems with this bloody virus. We just don't know, and until we do know keep well and safe.
