Yesterday's thread here:

From the gisanddata link.
Has anyone seen French Polynesia?
Wowowowow!
And it’s equatorial to boot.
I do too......
But those expiration date police in my family won't touch it.
But I'm still hanging on to it. They get hungry enough and it will look pretty good to them.
I still have pre-Fukashima canned pacific tuna, I’ve very proud of! :)

What is the expiration date?
Not that that matters, right?
She never had a fever. But, the surgeon said if we waited until today, there would have been much more trouble.
Chemo messes you up so much, sometimes it’s difficult to tell what is chemo, what is previous surgery, or what is a colon twisted like a sausage.
It hurt. A lot.
Prayers up for you.
I’m sorry you’re going through this at this time.
This is the site I used that convinced me not to toss my y2k food:

Prayers good soul
Thanks for the info. I still need to consolidate cash into the bank where I can use my debit card on line. I wish I could just send a check but I don’t trust my local postal people since I never got the association notice, and around the same time period 3 months of bank statements were returned to the bank saying PO could not deliver. This was crazy since I have a door slot, other mail was being delivered, and it was only envelopes. I guess I will try to see if anyone answers at my council members offices. I know that local income tax payment is being delayed, I don’t know about property tax, and there is a 10% first month late penalty.
Wuhan math - the correct answer is the one that furthers the interests of the communist party.
So, the BIG question on everyone's mind is "where's the peak"? Is it next week, next month, next year?
Italy is approx 8 days ahead of us. When a relative confidence level is reached that Italy has really crested the top of their curve, we should be next up to the plate.
Anecdote:
All deep freezers are sold out in about a 100 mile radius.
Friend was looking for a replacement for his chest freezer this past weekend. Lowes, Home Depot, etc, ALL sold out of every freezer including the floor models in some cases. One of those had 1 (one) floor model left and refused to sell it. Friend finally found one (the very last one) at a local small town furniture/appliance store. It was a scratch and dent the owner had put out front because all the others had sold.
So mmmmmaybe that’s where all the meat has gone from the grocery stores? Maybe some of the bread too? And the milk? mmmmmmaybe people will be a *little* more likely to prep a *little* in the future?
The lock downs will work—no doubt about that.
The problem is, what then?
The virus is waiting, waiting, waiting....
We in the US and other parts of the west, have led such sheltered lives for so long that we have forgotten what the rest of the world goes through on a pretty regular basis.
Humanity will survive.

"... The [corona]virus “was identified on a variety of surfaces in cabins of both symptomatic and asymptomatic infected passengers up to 17 days after cabins were vacated on the Diamond Princess but before disinfection procedures had been conducted,” the researchers wrote, adding that the finding doesn’t necessarily mean the virus spread by surface."
That is how you get high death rates....
