What's in your medical home kit to survive COVID-19?
March 26, 2020 | Scarpetta

If the hospitals are unable to handle the patient load, and you are coming down with symptoms that may suggest you have the coronavirus, what have you stocked to self-care at home? I'm looking for essentials items that I haven't considered.

I’ve sprayed it into my mouth when I felt a sore throat coming on. It’s always worked for me.

My high-speed lead delivery systems would have been ready, if not for that tragic fishing trip just after Christmas.

Gin and Tonic. The quinine in the tonic will save me.

Most of your list and I have an oxygen machine I got from a yard sale and a CPAP and guys in my family who could figure out how to use them in combination if need be.

I have only one ZPak I gave one to my son who, we’re pretty sure is recovering from it, no testing here yet.

I don’t know if they will help but I have a breathing machine and about 10 ampules, believe it or not also yard sale stuff. I have several Albuterol inhalers because hubby used to be a chronic asthmatic, don’t ask me why he is no longer one but I keep, just in case.

Lots of Tylenol, some cold medicine.

Of course my list doesn’t include things high-speed LDS. Those go without saying. But I too lost mine in during tragic ice fishing expedition on a vast and deep lake. Where it is I can’t remember.

I have liquid Vicks for the room humidifier and Vapopads for the personal humidifier. I consider Pepto and anti-nausea pills as part of my everyday medicine cabinet.

Interesting, what does the mayo clinic to see about global warming caused and health effects? What does the mayo clinic say about chopping off your penis? What did Mayo clinic say about staying away from eggs a few decades ago? What did Mayo clinic say when the whole world is recommending a high grain diet?

Just because it’s mayo clinic, doesn’t mean you can trust it

Keeping your airways free seems to be the most important thing. I quit smoking because I didn’t want to die of COPD, a horrible death.
