I don't think elbows is a great idea if we've been coughing into them (though if we're coughing we should be isolating), and the foot tap thing is a bit awkward

As you know, Scouting, like freemasonry, has a special handshake by which members identify one another. However, that went out of the window on Friday and we were subjected to the hilarious image of the Lord Lieutenant of Lincolnshire, as well as the MPs for Great Grimsby and Cleethorpes, fist-bumping passing teenagers.

Am wondering what impact this will have on vet med. Surely if there's an issue with oxygen/anaesthetic/drug supplies etc, for human use manufacturers may well need to swap production of vetinary varients for human ? The actives will be the same in many cases, "just" dosage, excipient and presentation differences. Similar for vet path labs maybe?
