I’ve seen a lot of motion-sensor hand sanitizer dispensers in public locations. The little bottle I carry with me is a manual squeeze bottle. I use it a lot too. Have refilled it twice since Friday.

We have converted a lot of folks, not 100%, but a lot—just takes some calm persistence with a lot of data....

So a Bangkok paper is the primary source for what is going on in Italy?
I just find that sort of odd.


Sam....when in doubt, about a source...it pays to do a search...prior to inserting foot into mouth....

https://www.breitbart.com/news/italy-deploys-emergency-field-hospitals-to-fight-virus/

Several other MSM sources available on simple search....

so frustrating isn’t it. I’m resisting the urge to reply to trolls from now on.

And yes, this thing does have us by the loins.

” We will resist that, and any concentration camp out here.”

Hang on, clam down: Did not say anything about isolation/camps etc.

I stated the military can deploy MASH units aka tent hospitals to help with caring for the ill.

I think the military will do an outstanding job—if/when they are given the chance...

If you notice the prepper type posts though, you’ll notice that there’s more people giving advice than getting it. I think a good majority of people on these threads have prepped at one time or another. With all this talk of socialism these days, it’s not a bad thing to be self sufficient, which includes some preps. Kinda like farmers or other people that grow veggies and have a root cellar to carry them over the winter, along with an animal butchered and put in the freezer.

I imagine the people in places where shelves are empty might be a bit panicky. Can’t blame them.

I haven’t read anything extreme in these threads. Just a bunch of people tracking what’s going on and we obviously can’t rely on the msm or any fedgov agency to tell the truth.

But they’re adapting, setting up field hospitals and doing strict triage- I think it’s incredible and am impressed by their fight. Bravo, Italy!

My prayers for their stamina and continued courage. The pressure on healthcare workers is enormous

It’s some Q thing is what I gathered from comments under scavino’s tweet.

You think Schumer returns to the State of Emergency? Like to see where he goes.

“That’s a fair point. Let me put it this way, as you did in the last sentence - you and I are not going to know the symptoms of someone we are in close proximity unless they are actively coughing or sneezing. They could have a fever and we would not know that, or if they have been coughing /sneezing previously and are not while we are around them.”

Let me put it this way. Unless I shake hands with them, and if I do then do not wash my hands, and unless I share any body fluids with them, or other not not safe things, I am not going to get infected merely breathing the same space they occupy.

Your hands, protecting them and not touching other surfaces with bare hands, is far more important than any mask you think will protect you from just breathing the same air as an infected person.

This is the first night since all this stuff started that I am looking at the numbers, the market, the questions bringing asked, and the general tone...and it makes me sad.

So many mistakes have been made. Unnecessary mistakes.

Just stop for a second and think about the easy stuff that could have been done. Sure, the “panic” would have come a week or two sooner. Everyone is too interested in being “right.”

This country has lost its way. Maybe a good ass kicking will straighten us out.
