People going ape shit to buy toilet paper.

Ph, shmee-H. It came from China. Nothing that comes from China works like it's supposed to. It could be radioactive. Has anybody even checked the virus for radiation? Who was even talking about drinking it?

That's why they have variety of flu called Asian...

Don't forget to put the vinegar and spices in the beak.

When I let work earlier we had about 3 bottles of rubbing alcohol left. Everyone's hitting the stores for aloe and alcohol to make home made hand sanitizer. We had a guy one in the other morning anD sweep our shelves of hand sanitizer. Side he's been all over town doing it, putting it on ebay and jacking the price up

Well, because of the people panicking and buying up the stuff I'm heading to Sam's club this weekend and buying a big pack of 36 rolls of toilet paper. That way if it all starts being bought up I'll have what I need for a few months.

You don't shit much! I'd get through that in a day.

USA have any problem about toilet paper?

I went to Tesco this afternoon and the liquid handwash shelves were all empty

Doctor at work said it's total BS* because 150K-200K people die of the flu a year being mostly elderly and 7-13 Million people get the flu depending upon the weather and how you take care of yourself and he said that's the flu we know of it could be much higher because people don't always go to the Urgent Care as they buy products from CVS or Walgreens the main suppliers of Medicine in USA. Been Stated that everyone in America that had died from it so far was elderly. Glad i am only 38* or is that the new Elderly?

What an entrepreneur...

That is because you are eating too much of your own product. Lay off the chocolate...

 

[Nummins]

I'm good with this for the next 2-3 weeks so no ape shit going for me. Always newspaper any way. If it really ever gets back I'll hit up the family's cottage...toilet paper and just about everything else is stocked up for months. If it gets worse than that I might be fucked.

If toilet paper becomes scarce and you live near a mosque go in and tell them you lost your turban and they will give you a new one.

FACTS​

From CDC as of March 9, 2020


Flu 2020

​

180,000 cases of the flu

10,000 deaths = 5.5% mortality rate

Corona Virus (Covid19)

114,000 “confirmed” cases

4009 deaths = 3.5 % mortality rate


20% of the coronavirus deaths were :

over 80 years old

male

heart disease

diabetes

Corona Death rate is actually lower, 2.1%, due to mild and unconfirmed cases.

For comparison, SARS death rate was 9.6%.

In summary:

this is NOT the Black Plague Or Ebola
this is NOT polio or the Spanish flu

We can treat the pneumonia that can occur due to Covid19 with antibiotics.

Covid19 is a respiratory virus that is mild in most cases except the most vulnerable - the sick elderly or immunocompromised persons.

Medications that have been used effectively against covid19 include kaletra, a protease inhibitor.

Covid19 is an RNA virus and is being treated with antiretrovirals aka HiV Medications.

Nope, just left the store, fully stocked on that (TP), at least here in chicagoland. I'm considering laying in a supply.
No freaking out with food, either.

.....aaaaaand 10 days later, Americans are buying out the stores like a Floridian under hurricane warning x 10,000.
On Monday, millions of kids won't go to school and millions of workers will exit the workforce to care for them. What will that look like?
