It's the question everyone wants to know: can you get coronavirus from farts? Dr Norman Swan has a strong opinion on fighting the scourge of corona-farting, and asks Australians to make yet another sacrifice. We promise the rest of the episode isn't as silly. It's actually very interesting. In today's episode: * Are Australian governments trying to eliminate coronavirus, but just aren't telling us yet? * When do you know if you’re sick enough to go to the hospital? * Can microwaves kill coronavirus? * Can you get coronavirus from farts? And Dr Norman Swan discusses some research from Nature Medicine about when people are most infectious with the SARS-Cov-2 virus.
