I think the clearance was given yesterday. They were talking about it at CDC press conference earlier.

It’s going to get way worse as they catch up testing.

The naysayers here should be worried about hospital bed shortages.

I believe Pence getting involved helped... I don’t know what happened but everything changed today with what the CDC was doing.

The naysayers here should be worrying about more than just hospital bed shortages...but, yes, if that’s what pokes them into action, so be it.

Again from that Oregon press conference something a bit disturbing...they were talking about contact tracing. They don't bother with every where the person goes. For example grocery stores, etc. They are only focusing on people they might have stopped and talked to for a certain length of time that was within 6 feet of them.

To me that sounds crazy. How often does someone cough of sneeze in a store?

problem with ‘wiping down’ is they’re ‘swiping down’. If that surface doesn’t stay wet for a few minutes, all they’re doing is spreading the virus like butter on toast

I think it's going to happen soon. At the press conference in Oregon they mentioned that Oregonians shouldn't panic but should have food and water for at least 14 days. Which of course will cause panic.

If you haven't bought yet go buy a little tomorrow, a little more Sunday and a little more Monday. As these new cases become clear from testing it may start a run...especially if there's a lot all in one area like in Italy.

You may have missed a few threads on FR.

In my house the non-panic buying started three or four weeks ago.

I’ve augmented what I already had by a few hundred pounds of rice in, some dried beans, lots of extra TP, and most importantly a Berkey. Also some bleach.

I don’t expect that food will become a problem anytime soon, but if you start bulking up by the time that panic sets in, you’ve got a problem.

I aim to get next season’s firewood in as soon as the snow melts.

I also stocked up on Black Elderberry, which is supposed to have great anti-viral properties, though I am not as confident in it as my mother.

This may be a blip, or it may be a gentle collapse.

Thank God it isn’t an EMP.
