My brother is in Singapore. He says everyone is wearing a mask and that they are sold out of masks in Asia. That’s why Taiwan wants to keep what they have.

...I don’t know how bad it is but I cancelled by order of canned bat soup just to be on the safe side...

But did you double your order of dog penis soup to compensate?

Apparently, the ChiComs f***ed up and let one of their bugs loose.

I would have added "again" to the end of that statement.

I was really looking forward to the ‘Cream of Bat’ soup order from Amazon tomorrow. Guess I will have to cancel the order.

I see they made it mandatory today that the 11 million in Wuhan have to wear these masks. Looks like a shortage could occur.

Could it be far bigger than just prescriptions and supplements from China?

I keep reading that “enveloped” viruses like coronavirus can last up to 24 hours in the environment. What if it’s 48 or 72 hours? How long does it take for products made in China to get on our shelves?

>> Only 91% kills viruses.

Nothing worse than an intoxicated virus.

Weeks and months for most things. Air freight is used for some electronics and urgent parts. But most things are shipped in containers.

I posted a statement yesterday from an industrial isopropyl manufacturer saying that 91% as a virucide is no more efficacious than is 70%.
