Again I note, the vast EU resources seem nowhere near helping in this situation. European morality strikes again.

If you refuse to treat me, I will just take a walk and see if I can find something to do around others.

We probably have a stockpile, but it’s likely been expired for a decade or more. The military always does this. You go somewhere where malaria is present and they hand out chloroquine from the 90’s. Chemical threat? Here’s atropine and 2-PAM chloride from the cold war.

Responsibly stored, expiration dates on most medication is far longer than you'd think.

Also, the US government will arbitrarily extend the expiration dates on drugs that have strategic value, if only to save money by not repurchasing them. Doxycycline (for anthrax) and Tamilflu are two that they've done this to (that I'm familiar with).

Well, if your famed “denialists” changed their tune, maybe it’s time you changed yours.

Pharmaceuticals in ‘pill’ form rarely expire on their ‘dates’.

Some things are 90%+ effective dose decades after any ‘expiration date’.

“Well, if your famed “denialists” changed their tune, maybe it’s time you changed yours.”

Why should I, if they’re now starting to agree with me?

Real QUININE is very expensive. They are using a sub, Qualaquin, there is 1 other. Not the same as a Malaria shot either,that is for Prevention, doesn’t always work, ask the Military about it.

A girl my brother works with In Manhattan has it. She slept for 3 days and didn’t get very sick. Now she’s all better. To disqualify the economic reality caused by this is not smart. If society collapses , clutching your pearls won’t save you. Neither will having guns . The people with guns will also be starving and In need of food or whatever.

Eventually, yes, but over the short term most people who have guns understand the need to be prepared for bad days, they’ll have food.

By your own admission, people are changing their tune. Sounds like you wish to live in the past during changing circumstances. Doesn’t bode well when living during the plague.

What’s so confusing about my last post? I have yet to see ANY EVIDENCE of the FluBros being right on this crap, particularly considering what Italy is now going through.

To those blaming governments..its not their fault. They are a reflection of the people. And the people want free stuff that rich people pay for, not wise strategic planning. The Italian bed shortage is a direct result of “free” health care.

Here in the US we need a war time response to roll out. Places like Taiwan and Singapore were barely touched because they had a readiness program in place. They had testing, and they threw civil liberties out the window. If you were in contact with a positive person, you were arrested and put in armed quarantine.

It doesn’t take a genius to see how unpopular such a systen would be here. We the people must push for it, it needs to be on both party platforms.

Covid 19 is not the big one. But the big one os coming. We can be ready, or lie back and die.

It’s as though nobody even considered the danger to national security. They all just sold us out for their own benefit.

We need to start another “buy American” campaign. At worse a “buy non-Chinese”. The CCP are an enemy to the planet. It’s time we all take that seriously.

Hate to tell you this, but Lawyers are rejected at the glue factory. They would just gum up the works....

This FluBro crap is so childish - so insular, too. People have used it on me and I’m like “what the hell are you talking about?”

Common sense has left the building.

“ There’s a handful of drugs which become dangerous if stored for a long time,...”

The tetracycline family of common antibiotics is one of them. A degradation product found in old samples (seven years) can cause kidney failure, so remember to rotate your stocks of fish antibiotics.

“What will happen in New York when they run out of ventilators? How do they decide who lives and dies? Over 70 for sure will be dead. Pre-existing conditions?”

In NY!? It will most certainly not be by Age! Social Class...maybe. Skin Color...likely. political affiliation...certainly.
