       Not a lot. It's just one person showing some common decency to
       another. Is that so bad?

       DazzsS, best wishes to you. We have lost 20,000 even though we
       are in lockdown. The reality is it won't be possible to have a
       live rugby game with supporters present and still have social
       distancing. I am not in any vulnerable group, but I wouldn't go
       to a game until this is well and truly over.  Life is precious.

       Interestingly, there is a suggestion that dogs may be trained to
       sniff for Covid 19 at airports.  That would allow people to
       travel with confidence that their fellow passengers were not
       infected.  It may just be wishful thinking but there does seem
       to be a need to identify anyone who is sick without the need for
       labourious testing and waiting for results.
       Heat scanners are also being discussed as options.  Anything to
       allow us, Joe Public, to resume a degree of normality anytime
       soon.

       Are you saying that spectators will not/should not attend a
       rugby match after the lockdown is lifted?
       But rugby players will be safe to play rugby with scrums,
       lineouts, rucks, mauls, tackles etc?

       Personally, I can't see supporters being allowed to attend any
       sporting events (concerts, parties etc.) for at least a month
       after the last fatality. If there's still the faintest chance
       that the virus can be passed on then the Government will keep
       the social distancing in place. This is the only reason why I
       haven't bought my membership for next season yet, so if anyone
       can convince me otherwise then please do so.

       For the record there were over 28,000 excess deaths from "flu"
       in 2015 due to genetic drift. That's "excess deaths" over and
       above 2014.
       There is very little possibility of a vaccine before next season
       and it is almost certain that Wuhan flu will become endemic in
       the world's population. Unless our way of life is to change
       forever to a distinctly poorer one (emotionally and socially)
       then at some stage we will have to bite the bullet and get back
       to work/play despite the risks.

       Interesting. I know that some dogs can sniff out some cancers,
       so this could be possible.

       Any reason - besides the obvious one - to call it Wuhan Flu?
       Also, excess deaths due to this virus are already a multiple of
       the number you quote, in a shorter space of time, despite the
       lockdown we have in place. If left unchecked, the number would
       be many many multiples of 28,000.
