No - but someone I met in the street in Cambridge earlier did comment that there were hardly any Chinese tourists around.

I have developed a runny nose and scratchy throat. I was in the Asian food aisle of the supermarket earlier. Should I visit my GP Vrap?

😂 I went to see someone last night who thought he had it because he was a taxi driver and had picked up someone from the airport. Someone not from China and from an airport that doesn't even fly to China. He had the sniffles.

I had a Chinese takeaway on Thursday and have had a sore throat and cough since Monday. Could the two be linked :-o

There is a sign on the window of our local urgent care walk-in centre telling you that if you have visited China within the last 14 days and have any respiratory symptoms:
DO NOT ENTER THIS BUILDING!

Not sure where you're supposed to go instead, it doesn't say.

A member of my staff hails from Hong Kong. She took her mum to the doctor's on Monday. It didn't occur to her that the two of them would get wary looks in the waiting room and then she realised what they might be thinking. (Her mum has an unrelated illness)

Chinese colleague reports the gym cleared when he coughed.

Chinese student reported no one wd sit next to her on the bus despite it being packed.
Signs at the entrance to all buildings in English and Chinese telling people what to do if they have recently returned from Wuhan.
