“We need to dust off the history books and read how our great granddads, and mothers, dealt with the Spanish Flu outbreak”

That would be a good reading assignment for me. I have learn more about Spanish Flu in the last month. I did not know they lock down and put on mask too until the last two weeks.

My brother is predicting a food supply train breaking (aka real food shortage) if the stay at home is not lifted by May 1. He thinks we need to roll the dice and restart to keep the food chain going.

Food supply is the one thing that’s still running actually.

I agree with your brother. I think food will be a serious issue for all of us by the end of the month. Just read about many meat processors shutting down. Now's the time to fill up the freezer for those who haven't.

Besides our HCS workers, we need to also supply PPE to those who keep our supplies coming! I pity the government bureaucratic hording warehouses of PPE, if they're found out.
