Lives are more precious than anything however
Corona virus probably not fatal enough even not qualify to pandemic
BUT
If
Everyone infected at the same time
Just imagine! Just Imagine!
Panic not recommended, prevention recommended.
Oh! True.
My husband's brother and wife live in Denmark - they've spent the last year planning and working towards moving back to Australia. Sold their business, sold their house, and had plane tickets booked for this Thursday to fly out here.
At the moment, Australia doesn't have a travel ban for Denmark - I believe it's more asking for people to self isolate once they get here. I just read Denmark is closing their borders this weekend.
I heard enough from my Mum and Dad who had me at 37 and 49 respectively so grew up in those times
Mum would never eat rabbit again afterwards, they literally shot their dinner, fortunately she lived in the country marginal land that it was, one of 8 children and that was a small family.
shared a bed, dirt floors and lamps and candles, ate lard and dripping on homemade bread that had to last,
the cities were much worse
and other countries
cats were called roof hares in Germany Dachenharen I think
Wow, respect!
I have pump soaps, but always keep gravitating back to old fashioned bar soap. A single bar at the bathroom sink can last for MONTHS, until it's so annoyingly small that I move it from the sink to the shower. Then it's gone in a week, heh!
That's awesome!
...and please don't offer me any baked goods either!

............ as long as i have potato chips.
Edited. Thanks.
ahhh, my kinda people!!!
I'm not panic buying, but I'm planning on stocking up the potato chips this weekend....if there are any left in the store.
And your mobile phone. Any recorded message at the time of calling someone?
Or producing super intelligent malovelent hamsters who want to enslave the human race and take over the galaxy..... they look harmless and sweet until they take out the ray gun and the tissue starts melting from your bones...........
Sounds like a nice early spring for you. Here we have had record snow falls to the point where my town, St. John's, Newfoundland, was completely shut down for over a week... it has been a very hard winter here.
Can you make bread yourself, or tea buns.... if so that is a nice alternative to shop bread.
I'm a teacher-leader in Washington State. We have 1 week to prepare the teachers, then we a going to 100% remote teaching and training until April 27. However, we are still providing childcare for the whole town at one school. We are also offering breakfast and lunch boxes to families to pick up. We are all in shock. Schools are fundamentally about human relations. We are worried that students will feel isolated. Some of our older students will have to watch their younger siblings, how will they do remote learning? Many of our teachers will have toddlers running around; how will they teach? It is uncharted territory. All I know is we have to put the well-being of our families first and support our students after that.
There were tears on Thursday, the last day with kids. After the teachers are up and running all the other schools will be sanitized and chained shut for the duration. What we are discovering though, is that the remote learning model will eliminate many jobs. Don't need custodians, bus drivers, paraeducators. All of them are hourly workers who don't get paid if they don't work. This is going to create havoc for our staff. So we are scrambling to find other work for them, so we can continue to pay them. These are trying times.
Thanks for sharing. Once this is implemented, it will be difficult to roll back.
Very difficult time. Looks like situation will become normal as soon as temperature increase.
Souren highlighted that the geographical spread of nCoV has so far been restricted to countries with colder climates. The maximum number of cases are reported in China's Wuhan, where sub-zero minimum temperatures were reported during both January and February.
Even in Seoul in South Korea, where the number of confirmed cases saw a sharp rise recently, minimum temperatures were much below 0°C during February. Even Rome in Italy and Tehran in Iran recorded sub-zero temperatures in February.
India has fortunately seen a fewer number of confirmed cases of COVID-19, despite being the neighbour of the epicentre of the outbreak, China. The number of confirmed cases have crossed 80,000 in China, 5,000 in South Korea and 2,000 in Italy. In India, so far, only six confirmed cases have been reported. The spread has been limited in India despite its dense population and inadequate hygiene in the urban centres.
Not just the present coronavirus outbreak, even the earlier epidemics like MERS, SARS, Ebola and yellow fever, which killed thousands across Asia, America and Africa, had a minimal impact in India. Therefore, scientists suggest that the viral infections of this category may not spread as rapidly in India as they did in countries with colder climate as high temperature and humidity could be making it difficult for viruses to survive and remain potent.

I greet it by following this thread.
Yup we're crazy dooms day preppers Stocked, Locked in and loaded up. bring on the Zombies
East bunker storage area
We're just living in their world.
I moved out of investments a few days ago. Risk is just too high right now.
Mine dropped too, but I've been able to preserve the great majority of it. Now it's just a waiting game.
And stop peeing on the toilet seats, people! What's the matter with all these humans?
Evictions every day, that would be my policy. Cats should be outside eating rats.
I also refuse to read those links "one family's story", "what it's like in an Italian hospital", "I got Covid19 and vomited my guts out for weeks; here's my story".
No. Just no. Not gonna read it. Not gonna wallow in it. Not gonna waste my time being depressed. Why no, I haven't seen "The Green Mile" and I don't watch chick flicks either. What makes you ask that question?
I spent this morning cooking bacon and eggs. That's my version of hoarding!
We are going to the movies!
hour later
movies got canceled
wow very profound
My parents were born in the 1920s, my mother would have been 100 this year. One of 12 children. Her family was poor, what folks called dirt-poor. She and her siblings were born in cabins at home, her mother helped by other women or her daughters later. They raised their own food, stock, or hunted and fished. When you think of the American West, the cabins, that was her life for the 20s and 30s, until she went into the Army Air Corps Civil Service for WWII. During that time you worked all the time, there was very little time for play as we think of it now or when I was a kid. She cared for her younger siblings or newphews and nieces.
My father's family had money, with servents before the Depression. But it hit and then the Dustbowl. His father finally gave up on Iowa and moved the family to Los Angeles in the 30s. He rode the buses to the beach with his mahogany surf board. Times were tough but his family still had some luxuries. Yet he came out of that experience with the belief he had no responsibility to his kids past the age of 16.
Growing up in the 50s and 60s, in California and Oregon I was busy. Chores were expected to be done inside and outside the house, and when my mother went back to work, I had responsibility for my younger sister and brother and for preparation for dinner, laundry, and helping with their school work as well. I was still in Elementary School, Jr. High School and Sr. High School. I still had time to run around the neighborhood, climb trees, read books, comics, sew, do needlecraft, ...
(I have deleted five different statements here. I just hope my son's generation and their children learn some real life lessons from this.)
The End of the World is coming soon.....DAZ SOON. (so don't worry... just stay safe ... and have a long loving and creative life)
I'm probably not nearly as stocked or locked as you, but I could take out a few zombies if they decided to change their dietary habits and come after my pork and beans or the contents of my refrigerator. The independent energy source thing is a challenge for me.
Here's an article about coping with this: https://apple.news/Ag0RabpGoQWqj_p31U6Wc0Q
People ask me aren't you afriad to tell people about our location... I say not at all. Our power sources in the mountains was a challenge for us for a while Because for a long time all we had was the Generac 8000 watt Propane generator with a 1000lb under ground propane tank it can run the house about 30 days on it we have gar stoves and water heaters. It was part of the build for the house design because of our remote location. and loosing the power in the winter so much. We have a artesian well for water and we have a fairly good size wood lot we were get our firewood for our stone fireplace and a whole -house heating wood stove. . it was one of the reason we bought this land. We have since installed 2- 72 " x 48" solar panels on the roof that charge a main battery storage unit that can pretty much run the freezers and a few other things as long as the sun shines during the day to charges the system . we did that so we won't have to depend the propane generator for long time energy demands. in case of EMP everything is shielded. we have a small creek runs through our property and had started putting in a water wheel on it. but we had some issues when hubby tried to get permits to make a pond for the backed water. Some issue of flooding up stream was the reason we were denied the permits . we also have a 5000 watt portable Home-lite Gas power generator that runs off a 20 gall gasoline tank. and a few extra 5 gal cans of gas stored. But we only use it a few times a year to make sure it runs and put seaform through it to keep it ready its for bug out scenarios or as a back up. we use the stored gas all year in our john deere tractor and 4 wheeler, so the gas always is rotated and fresh. a few years back we got a great deal on a small patch of land and put a 4 room cabin on it , Its a few miles away & we can drive the 4x4 off the main road to it in case we need to leave here for any reason. and its pretty stocked up as well. Not to mention that everyone that lives on this mountain we are on are all part of our preppers group of 9 families, some of us are police , EMT. carpenters, farmers and just regular folks like me. we take care of each other kids and watch over each other and are all friends. My hubby is a ER doctor (retired) that is our contribution to our party. Our group has occasional meetings & once in a great while practice drill of blocking off the access roads, testing communications and other drills to get the families working together. we hunt and fish and pretty much can live off the land we been doing it for years. We prepped for a Nuclear event but pretty much can cover most other catastrophic events as well.
I know this all sounds obsessive to outsiders. but as small close nit mountain farm community its just a part of life for us like going to church. Many people have moved to the mountains here in the last few here for the same reason we did 25 years ago to get away from the chaos of the city. But never in my days would i really have thought we needed all this stuff and even commented on it many time how much money we spent that we could have bought a summer home on the beach. that all this stuff prepped was over kill . I am rethinking that now. The AR-15 was my Valentines present this year.
Wow, this is fascinating to me! I've literally lived the exact opposite life--growing up in NYC and moving to LA. I've never seen a gun in real life and don't eat meat. I get water from Trader Joe's, Ralph's supermarket or Arrowhead delivery and now I have a Brita style pitcher too.I've never lived more than about 10 feet from someone else's door. I've never really known my neighbors, we just smile and say hi in passing. I don't know their names. But there's an app called "Neighbors" where we communicate things like crime, stolen packages caught on Ring cameras, and lost/found pets in the neighborhood but I've never met any of these people although they are all in a 1 mile radius of me. In the winter I just use small space heaters on occasion or an electric blanket because it doesn't get that cold here. There are hundreds of places that deliver food or anything else if needed. I've been to lots of parks and hiking trails but I've never actually seen the woods in real life. It's almost like we're living in two different centuries. I find this SO interesting!
Rural living is much different than big city life for sure. If I lived back in the city I would only carry my CCW (conceal carry weapon) a.380 S&W pistol But in the country you have to have guns to protect farm crops from invading animals. we once had a 300 lb black bear try to get on the porch to get the pet food when hubby was working . I scared him off with the pump shot gun loaded with rubber bullets. we have a large deer population here and take a few every year for the meat .venison is great , low fat no hormones or added crap lie store bought &. 5 miles across the county I go once a week to a Farmer who has a comercial dairy farm and pick up a gallon of raw whole milk for 2 bucks a gallon I just draw it out of the milking tank. . nothing taste better than raw milk.
we had chickens running around for a while but the foxes have pretty cleaned them out when they dug a hole in the hen house last fall so we never replaxced them not sure if are going to or not. we did let go 60 Pheasants and Charkha Partridges this winter to stock the back property with game birds hopefully the will bred this year. hubby got those from a breeder NC so I get pretty excited when is see one show up under the bird feeder. yea its a much different way of life then the hustle rush riuh rush of the city. only draw back was it was a 30 mile drive just to a ream of computer paper or a pair of jeans . But thanks to Amazon that has made life here much easier.
this is a picture i took of the back security camera last night of a coyote prowling around
