Wow sanitizer. I got to use a wipe last night at the supermarket.

Good thing we don't have to line up for hand soap yet. I get that sanitizer is easier and portable, but plain old soap and water is better.

Get moisturizer if your using soap and water. Hands are so dry lol.

Last week I was let's stock up. Wife was naah.

Saturday landed and it's clean everything's. Go figure.

No one's died here yet, 20 cases ICU nationally can only handle 3500 though.

Doomsday plan.

Well they have a plan at least.

The solution is to stop caring about the money that the super rich have and make sure the poor have what they need.

I'm going to call that beyond the scope of these boards. No politics, and all that.

It is a line to prevent people hoarding the stuff. Though in some places they went out of chlorine, wipes and Lysol on top of gel.

At least in my country people is bound not to have enough extra money to go and stockpile food and other necessities. I hope.

Well, my partner and I made a hard choice. I will no longer be seeing her for a while (we live in different houses) her younger son sees his irresponsible dad every week and she lives next to her mom. And my son insists on going over to his girlfriends house, and she has two teen siblings who think they are immune and still go out to public places every day to hang out. Their mom works at a retirement home, so you’d think they would have a shred of good judgment

Since we’ve had several cases in this town, the risk is just too high so we made the decision. Bleh. I hope we get widespread tests quickly.

In this step, you are assuming that every person in the US gets infected, yes?

That's... a highly questionable assumption.

And how many people in this country have never had a cold or the flu? That is maybe how many people will never have this. This is going to be seasonal, most likely, and be around in variations, just like the flu.

The fact of the matter is, we have no clue what the pattern will be, if any. Please don't spread assumptions that the scientists stress over and over again that they just can't know yet.

Regardless of the pattern, epidemiologists have been saying that long term this virus will be another childhood disease like chickenpox. This is why the WHO finally called it a pandemic - it's here to stay.
