Thanks so much for your concern @ShamZ ! I'm fine and they're just finger-errors, not spelling errors per se. I'm juggling too many things at once and not checking myself!! I appreciate your concern a lot ... truly!

EDIT: Thread title corrected now!

@ARYANTO Is there no-one else you could contact who might have his phone number? Someone in Human Resources? Somone in the factory must have his contact details.

I was in two minds whether to post this article on one of our local FB groups, as once before people were very annoyed that I had posted something which did not directly concern our town. Very small minds here - they think they live on an island and the rest of the world is no concern of theirs.

Well, I decided to post it - and I'm so glad that I did. Someone replied saying that she had been on one of the ships on those dates. I suggested that she has herself tested asap and that she remains in isolation until she gets the results. She's not ill, but she could be a carrier. How many people has she come into contact with since returning? How many people have stood close to her in our tiny pharmacy (we don't have Clicks/Dischem here). Just hoping that she'll test negative.
