I’ve been on tour in Bristol and still been busy.
There aren’t many precautions you can take, if a client has corona - they will probably pass it on to you, no matter how clean you both are and even if you don’t kiss as it’s an airborne virus - you only need to be within 2 metres of them.
Also there’s lots of cases where people with the virus have had no symptoms at all, have felt fine and have tested positive.
From a sales point of view - don’t mention Coronavirus on your profile, it’ll only stop people from coming to you. We all know about it, guys don’t need reminding and I very highly doubt a guy will come and see you if he’s feeling unwell.
The only few suggestions i’d make would be to shower throughly after every booking (which I hope you do anyway) brush teeth and use alcohol mouthwash - gargle it. Also burn sage once a day in the room you are working from, it kills 94% of airborne bacteria and cleanses the room for up to 24 hours.

I do like your suggestions Glowstick but as I am outcall only, I have no chance with the Sage but I am going to do what I can.  My bookings are down to like one a week at the moment, really rough and I think the punters are beginning to catch on that we are struggling, I have had one haggler already trying me today and I think more will come.

I am not having that just on principle though.

I'm similar not down to one per week, and still as good as an average week but definitely fewer enquiries. However it can be normal for me to not receive phone calls or emails for a few days. I am more exposed to the 15 minute / see me out of hours / drunk-or-drugged / last minute / waiive deposit requests but as far as I see it more clients ups my risk, so I will be sticking to my rules and rates. If I miss out I miss out and spend that time researching for another form of income.

I received a lovely message from a client - wishing me to keep safe during the outbreak.
Nice chap!  :)

I have not done too bad considering. I have also had more wanting outcall this week but next week might be totally different depends where you are and what clients are about.

I do think major cities like London will suffer more at the moment as a lot have been like ghost towns and in rush hour.

Luckily things have picked up for me now. The problem is that there are probably thousands who have it with no symptoms and we still need to get on with our lives. Keep positive and have no fear. As long as we take precautions. The good thing to come out of this is that everyone is focused on hygiene which is a good thing.

Sadly every shop has run out of hand sanitizer etc  :FF
Shall make my way to the alcohol section and buy pure stuff to clean my surfaces  :)

Plus have a drink or two that might kill a few foreign bodies inside me that are lurking !

My maths isn’t great but out of a population of 60 million in the UK only around 0.00001% of the population have known cases of coronavirus at the moment

Please note that the virus isn’t airborne it’s from skin to skin contact

I'm no expert but I thought it was if someone coughed or sneezed near you? God help them if they do...

Great news!
Why don't you publish your findings in The Lancet, VenusStar193?
Surely they would be grateful for this contribution as it contradicts the articles they have published so far.

Why are people stopping kissing then?  You don't think men touch their todger, thighs, chest and anyone else you will touch and they will touch you?  There really is no way to avoid a skin to skin communicable virus if that was the case.

Corona can stays"live" in air up to 3 hours, it is now said.

If it's in the "air", what difference would it make to keep washing "surfaces"
after each punter left the room.
Masks make no difference so why people buying and wearing it??

I'm quietly impressed (and slightly envious) of anybody who has managed to so wholly and completely avoid every single available source of news and information for what must be the best part of a month. I'd also suggest that there may be a place for our Venus in the White House :).
