I'm more concerned about food and supply security than the virus itself, except for my partner who is at risk. Our wills are up to date. How many fatties?
Hmm. I am not at all worried about food security. Cannot think of a reason why I should be.
How many fatties? Whatever it takes to fill up your lungs with small particulate matter.
How many read and post here who are a) over 70 years old, b) are clinically obese, c) smoke tobacco cigarettes and/or d) smoke 5 or more big fatties of weed over the course of the day?
If that is YOU, is your will up to date? (Can I have your lawn ornaments?)
Do you have bush skills? I ask because you could go hide in the desert, the mountains or the northern boreal forests for a year or perhaps more and you will be just fine. Fine as the long as the exertion does not kill you.

There seems to be an awakening that coincides with these perspectives and it's getting larger as well. Today's society knee-jerks at the drop of a pin.
Randomly reminded when I came down with bird flu when I was on a trip and had to fly home feeling really crook. I was sitting near the front of the plane and they asked the person next to me to move back to help balance the weight. He refused then had to listen to me hack and cough for 3 hours.

Truth.
In general governments would be better off getting the bad news out as quickly as possible and trying to be clear on what they don't know. Hard for a bunch of people who like to think they are in control.
And let the masses know how incompetent they are in 'protecting' them? Despite BILLIONS spent on obsolete planes, tanks and weaponry? Nah, they'll go down in lava flames before admitting they are NOT in control. We're on our own.

We are pretty nanny-state here. The government is trying to crack down on doctors writing scripts for 2 rounds of antibiotics so you don't have to go back if it turns out that you need more. The rationale is apparently that people get both filled and then take antibiotics when they get a cold later. As opposed to wanting to have some for when you go on holiday to Bali or wherever.
But really the trouble with antibiotics, aside from building up resistant bugs, is that there you need to know which ones are effective against different things.
I think your best bet is to research which ones are available for tropical fish in the pet stores. Or maybe farm supply stores.

While cutting rates can bolster confidence and help to keep borrowing cheap, it cannot prevent disease from spreading or help companies deal with delayed orders or sick workers.
âWe do recognize that a rate cut cannot reduce the rate of infection, it wonât fix a broken supply chain,â Mr. Powell said. âWe get that â we donât think we have all the answers.â
If anything, containing the longer-term economic fallout may necessitate preventive actions that will weigh on near-term economic growth, like restricting air travel, closing movie theaters, shuttering factories and quarantining workers. China, the initial source of the outbreak, has engaged in those types of restrictions, hurting its economy temporarily but enabling it to slow the virusâs spread.
Anthony S. Fauci, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, called Chinaâs measures ârather draconianâ on Tuesday at a news conference but acknowledged that they had slowed the number of virus cases. âThey have taken social distancing to its farthest extreme,â he said.

San Antonio, TX: Officials became aware of a woman from Wuhan, one of those quarantined on the Cruise and evacuated to one of six Military Installations in the U.S., Lackland A.F.B. tested positive once, then twice negative. She was released from quarantine before her fourth test came up positive. She stayed at a hotel near the airport and visited a mall within blocks. Ate at the food court and went back to her hotel. The county has been declared a local state of disaster and public health emergency. Growing distrust of how this is being handled, a rushed evac of the 12 that have tested positive at Lackland is rallying now.
I knew the shite would get real, just didn't think it'd be this soon. Shut downs and supply chains are still scarier than the virus itself.
yeah, kind of like microorganism growth, the panic grows exponentially
