I wonder how long it will be before the tin foil brigade and the Greta haters will put forward the theory that either she got it deliberately to stay in the media focus or it is just a cold and she is overplaying it to get attention.

(I wouldn’t put it past some on here to wish for it to kill her but maybe I’m being too harsh).

She will have got it from the weeks and weeks she had couped up on those ships.

If she had flown in a private jet she probably wouldn't have got it!

A work friend has done some very dodgy stats "proving" that countries with high use of public transport get more cases per capita than countries where there is less transport infrastructure in place! Or "the poor people disease" as the TVR driving twunt calls it!

Longer than it took the sanctimonious virtue signallers to start a thread hoping for a bite, it seems.

You haven't said what your daughter thinks.

Fake news.

She hasn't even been tested for the virus so her claiming that she has it is a little premature, if not even attention seeking.

St Greta of Thunberg said:
The last two weeks I’ve stayed inside. When I returned from my trip around Central Europe I isolated myself (in a borrowed apartment away from my mother and sister) since the number of cases of COVID-19 (in Germany for instance) were similar to Italy in the beginning. Around ten days ago I started feeling some symptoms, exactly the same time as my father - who traveled with me from Brussels. I was feeling tired, had shivers, a sore throat and coughed. My dad experienced the same symptoms, but much more intense and with a fever.
In Sweden you can not test yourself for COVID-19 unless you’re in need of emergent medical treatment. Everyone feeling ill are told to stay at home and isolate themselves.
I have therefore not been tested for COVID-19, but it’s extremely likely that I’ve had it, given the combined symptoms and circumstances.

Now I’ve basically recovered, but - AND THIS IS THE BOTTOM LINE: I almost didn’t feel ill. My last cold was much worse than this! Had it not been for someone else having the virus simultainously I might not even have suspected anything. Then I would just have thought I was feeling unusually tired with a bit of a cough.
And this it what makes it so much more dangerous. Many (especially young people) might not notice any symptoms at all, or very mild symptoms. Then they don’t know they have the virus and can pass it on to people in risk groups.
We who don’t belong to a risk group have an enormous responsibility, our actions can be the difference between life and death for many others.

Please keep that in mind, follow the advice from experts and your local authorities and #StayAtHome to slow the spread of the virus. And remember to always take care of each other and help those in need.

Coronavirus is her friend. Shutting everything down, less pollution, few people.

She'll be happy, in a way.

I find it odd that so many famous people appear to have it yet in percentage terms of the whole population who are affected.......

Attention seeking pure and simple

A bit like the famous narcissist Sam Smith who I believe, by chance, has a new album out soon
He they just needs to man person up

Perhaps no-one else would have brought the subject up until you had highlighted the story that Greta had allegedly caught the virus?

Why did you feel the need to post the news, and express your opinions on others in the way you have?

In other news Greta gets a bit of a cold. Like millions of us, my wife and I included who have had some of the symptoms ( they are very general symptoms of lots of ailments) of c19.

The only positive I can garner from her address to the planet is her call for the less vulnerable groups to heed the precautionary advice.
