Corona Virus

[Hatchdog]

Yesterday I picked up an RX at RiteAid and they had lots of TP. Stopped by the local grocery store Yokes and they too had plenty. Only items out of stock seemed to by hand sanitizer.

We ramped on some items, just in case the media induced panic empties store shelves before they can restock. Just some basics. Feds didn't help matters much telling the public to stock up for a pandemic.

The WHO said not to buy more than two weeks supply of anything.

I think I'll ignore The WHO.

Trump to Declare National Emergency to Speed Virus Response

(Bloomberg) -- President Donald Trump plans to declare a national emergency on Friday over the coronavirus outbreak, invoking the Stafford Act to open the door to more federal aid for states and municipalities, according to two people familiar with the matter.

The president said he will hold a news conference at 3 p.m. in Washington. Trump spoke Friday with Emmanuel Macron, the French president tweeted, about the pandemic, and agreed to organize a video conference with world leaders on Monday to coordinate research efforts on a vaccine and treatments and work on how to respond to the economic fallout.

Regarding private firearms, see Title VI, Section 706 of the Stafford Act.

Well the Gov. of Va. declared state of emergency so all the schools in the state are closed for 2 wks and every event around the area
postponed or canceled.
Did our grocery shopping today and while everyone was sucking up the toilet paper and bottled water I getting all the bread and milk!

Don't understand buying up bottled water as there is nothing wrong with the tap water....crazy folks!

I'm stockpiling ammo for the apocalypse....try taking out a Zombie with a roll of Charmin, and you've squeezed your last roll.

I've got a pretty good stock pile of components, bullets, powder, and primers to last a verily decent while.
Not to mention a LOT of factory stuff, also lead and molds if need be.

What is the source of the data/chart? E.g. is it generated by the CDC, other compiler?
Would be interesting to know more about the target, too. TIA, Vaquero.

Sorry PT, I don't know as I just stole it from one of the other gun forums I visit.

Similar here. Oregon schools closed through end of March. Gatherings limited to less than 250 people through April 8th. Port of Astoria closed to cruise ship visits. High school basket ball play offs canceled.

Very little toilet paper on the shelves here. Bought a six pack of bottled water for the bottles to fill from the RO tap. Our well water is horrible tasting.

I saw on the news people beating each other with wine bottles at Costco. Really

[Ernie]

Was going to Costco today but heard the line to get in was out the door well into the parking lot and if there is a chance to be assaulted I think I will pass.
My credit union is drive through only, DMV is by appointment only, schools closed until mid April, at the grocery today the only frozen vegetables left were green beens and spinach, hospital and nursing homes are on lock down, only six confirmed cases in Michigan (Detroit area).....it is going to be an interesting couple weeks. Wash your hands.

Sounding like we can't just poo poo this anymore. People are freaking out!
Virus or not, we need to be able to get food and supplies.
Glad to be a gun owner. They were saying on FOX news this morning that even law enforcement could be compromised, amongst many other things, ( and the crazies are out there. )

I don't know how much longer I can hold out.

Coronavirus Pandemic, day 16.
If anyone is still out there, I’m alive but struggling. Food is running low. Down to only 459 days worth. My hands are super sanitized and my butt is super clean. Power still on, but for how long? Missing human interaction. I fear dark days ahead. News is all bad. Last few friends have attempted to leap from windows to their death, (or near death... most have single story homes so they are badly bruised). Basic necessities are gone though. NBA, NHL, NASCAR, NCAA, PGA, all gone. Basic Survival is a definite challenge. I vow to persevere to the end, I am a survivor! Please, if there is life out there, communicate!!!!!.....
