Yesterday's thread is here: http://freerepublic.com/focus/chat/3823939/posts?page=1301
Post all you want, I’ll start responding as I do to the Flubros who also try to hijack this discussion.
“Lots of us did, got ready for it, and are now not in line making things worse...The supply chain can handle people prepping a little at a time, over the course of weeks or months. It cannot handle everyone deciding all at once that they need enough for 2-4 weeks and stocking up in one shopping trip.”
Tell me about it, if anything the Flubros should be KISS OUR FEET for not having to make their lines any longer. Are they? Nope, they just come here and troll.

5th person in Collin Co. (north of Dallas)
First travel related case in San Antonio (not the Lackland AFB ship passengers).
The ban will affect events including this weekend’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade and Tejano Music Awards Fan Fair. At press time, officials were unprepared to say whether Fiesta, the upcoming 10-day citywide party, has been cancelled or delayed.
An effort to avoid overcrowding Bexar County jail with people booked for minor offenses. A 30-day delay in seating juries at Bexar County courthouse.
Harris Co. (Houston) jail suspends visitation. Inmates get 2 extra phone calls a week.
Juvie hall closed to outsiders.
29th Annual AGC Houston BBQ Cook-Off postponed. OK, when this virus messes with BBQ, it’s on!
Dallas zoo and museums closed.
Six Flags - Arlington and San Antonio closed.
Done, welcome aboard!
The average age in many states here is 48’ish. This isn’t just an old person virus.
We’ve been giving accurate information, because we have been reading the information coming from overseas for the last month and a half.
We went shopping during that time, and don’t have to wait in long, nasty lines now.
Don’t be mad at us because there is a lethal virus. It’s a fact, and it’s time to face it and try to protect yourself and those you love.
Nope..been warning repeatedly about the economic impact..only to be mocked..ridiculed..stalked..yep one is even pming telling me how wrong i am...in a very very nasty way
I am sick of you people being so nasty about it under the guise of we are going to bust your fearmongering.
This is a news site to talk about news. This IS the news. Why dont you post a thread for you and the flubros and go there
“about Rush.....there has been an enormous amt of panic”
His borderline hysterics are the closest thing I have seen to panic in this whole outbreak. With swings towards complete apathy (”It’s just the flu!” mutates into “Hell, we’re all going to die anyway?”).
In short, I don’t think it costs $.05 nor a visit to Lucy Van Pelt that Rushbo is dealing with...private issues.
I think many of us are acutely aware of the financial impact. It’s WHY we are preppers.
“80’s and has out of state travel history”

“Tarrant County had three cases of coronavirus. The first, a priest at Trinity Episcopal Church, was announced Tuesday and the second, someone who had recently traveled abroad, Friday by Tarrant County Public Health director Vinny Taneja. The third case, announced Friday, involves a resident whos been in contact with a person in Collin County who also tested positive. The rest of the DFW area, as of Friday afternoon, had more than another dozen cases. Dallas County had the first person test positive who had not recently traveled out of the area, signifying the possibility of community spread. In Austin, the University of Texas president Greg Fenves announced his wife had tested positive for coronavirus.”
LOL. Technically, as of today I am a lessthanflu bro. I wear that badge with honor.
Millions are feeling real economic pain for years due to fear mongers like you. But do carry on with the “I din do nothing” gaslighting. Unlike the Q flu mania the economic catastrophe is already here in the US and all too real.
Leave the shoes in the car so you don’t track to the house door.
“Millions are feeling real economic pain for years due to fear mongers like you.”
Do you think I’m also posting in Italy, S. Korea, or Wuhan?
(hint: I only speak one language)
Yikes.
Does your hubby do auto stuff? See if he can order spare connectors and a battery, just in case. We got a new battery for each vehicle along with belts/hoses/windshield wipers/brake pads. Basically stuff that might be dodgy to get since at least some of it is MIC.
The first, a priest at Trinity Episcopal Church
great..another church
Tough guy, head to Italy and go tell us about the fear mongering.
Pentagon stops all domestic travel for the troops. My nephew just made it back on paternity leave on Thursday. Just made it out under the wire.
Toe:
Correct—WV is the only state without cases.
Here is a data source for all the states:
It is a spreadsheet with several interesting tabs.
On the right hand side is the date and time of the latest update.
If you go to the “states” tabs it has links to each state’s health department so you can see for yourself if there are further updates.
Welcome to CV Geek Land!
LOL!
Last couple years it seems a lot of the auto parts stuff is moving to India and Vietnam as the Chinese have moved up the economic ladder.
