Last time I burned my fingers - teach me to not hold the mug by the handle - soaking them in cold water wasn’t working, so I finally tried Aveeno hand cream and it worked. Aveeno has oatmeal in it which is good for burns. I also had oatmeal too, but I thought of that later.

As for that pan manoeuvre? I’m pretty sure we’ve all done it. 

let it fall .. knife .. pan.. whatever.. move back and just let it fall.  Then order swiss chalet ...

Thinking about it, you’re absolutely right, but knee jerk reactions overrule common sense sometimes.

yes sometimes we don’t think we just react. When i worked in a fast food restaurant in the 70’s we had a manager that always had us pour pickle juice over a burn. it helped taking the burn away. that was a long time ago and times have changed.

It's the vinegar. Mildly antiseptic and good at killing the pain.  Use cotton to swab it on a sunburn.  Drawback? You smell like a walking salad,

Our state of emergency has been extended to mid-may.  Experts say it's not enough...not sure it ever will be. Will this ever be gone ... it's not sounding that way. I'm not liking the new normal. I'll deal with it, but I don't like it.

Woke up feeling hopeful after watching a couple of reports on promising clinical trials of treatment meds. This keeps playing in my head.

It will almost certainly extend through end of May - and a lot of disease specialists say we can expect something like this, or SARS, or something unknown, about every 20 years as people continue to expand into once wild areas.

I am less than thrilled as well, but what choice do we have? We will deal and keep moving forward.

I do not believe covid 19 is the result of some fool eating a raw bat from an exotic meat market any more than I believe the theory of American politicians setting it loose from a lab near that same meat market with the plan of getting Trump out of office.

Fact, viruses mutate. Fact covid 1 thru 18 already existed. Mutation 19 just happens to hit humans harder than 1 thru 18 did. Will it and other viruses continue to mutate? Yup.

Earth shattering pandemics every 20 years or so? Maybe. Historians need to look at that, in conjunction with medical peeps.

The fish market was also an exotic animal shop. You're correct that no one had to eat the bat for it to make the jump, but the market is where it originated (and will probably never reopen).  This precise scenario -- a corona virus making the jump from bats to humans -- has been discussed for years by disease experts looking for where the next pandemic may originate.

One of the worst of the conspiracy theories links the virus to 5G cell towers.  There have been several set alight in the UK over the last couple of weeks.
