It looks like the looters were not practicing proper social distancing. ;-)

I shouldn’t have looked. With other people, no problem. Gory stuff in movies no problem. Being present for both my kids’ births and watching from the end with a view, no problem. Seeing my own blood flow out of me, down for the count. LOL

How much of this is because of the virus in the US and how much is because their supply chain of widgets from China is broken?

What needs to happen is to strategically warehouse these medical items across the globe, so that next time this happens (and it will!) they can be quickly deployed where needed.

Those plants simply assemble components made elsewhere with the help of robots. Mexico, Canada, China make the components.

Not surprised.

Now we know why China bulldozed streets, sprayed disinfectants day and night and welded/barred/chained people into their apartments.

We saw it unfolding right before our eyes.

A question for anyone who might know or heard it mentioned. Possibly stupid..........

My husband and I have decided, as many have, to stay in our home. No one in, no one out, except for very necessary things. We live in South Carolina, not easy when the birds are singing and spring is here, 75 degrees and going into the 80s, .........is there a risk if people open their windows and screen doors in their homes.

The companies that have kept the internet on and INCREASED its capacity are heroes in my opinion. And the enormous virtual cloud hosting all the servers.

It’s also the digital infrastructure of the supply chain.

Every supply chain.

Thanks guys.

Bravo!

I’d guess as long as you don’t have really close neighbors or live right on a road you’d be fine?

We live in the country and go outside every day. Our nearest neighbors are about 500ft away and they don’t come outside very often.
