If this pandemic does happen, and it is said to be when rather than if, then it could kill thousands of UK citizens. I'm sorry Greg but it is more than fair to include folk clubs in any ban, as people tend to have their mouths open when singing. Apart from which if/when it arrives, I don't think you'd need more than the fingers of one hand to count your audience members.
People who go to work with streaming colds, and hacking coughs, are not being noble they are being selfish, by showing no consideration for their fellow workers.
