Stock up a month of food because its not a bad idea to have, not because of covid 19. And be honest with yourself - if you're stocking food because a double dogit number of people in a country of 350 million have a virus, you're panic buying.

Also if you're planning to quarantine for 30 days hope your ass works from home.

I like bucket lists, we can do that for a bit.

1) Survive the plague (ongoing).
2) Scavenge gasoline in the wasteland.
3) See Roger Waters' This Is Not A Drill tour.
4) 1978 930 Turbo in my garage.
5) Blue water sailing.
6) Dog.

edit:

7) Meet Matthew McConaughey or Woody Harrelson.

1) stay indoors
2) remain calm
3) do not talk about ‘The Event’.

None of the gear will protect you

Exercising, eating well, not smoking will

Enjoy

The liquid anti-bacterial soap shelves were full yesterday in my local market but today it's a different story

Here are people in Brooklyn Costco waiting for the store to open https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kL4bt43dkvg

I'm pretty sure the Army Surplus store nearby has already been picked clean. We're all on our own now. What you have is what you have.

This is killing perfectly healthy adults in their prime. This isn't the bird flu, that's what makes generating the hysteria so easy- this is a legit contender

-zero symptom incubation period
-kills healthy adults
-highly contagious
-its moves back and forth from species
-CDC does not have a 100% test for it

Its scaling to kill 1-4% infected which is higher than almost all of pandemics

Edit- In case people missed it, The fact it's moving between species means it's impossible to contain it

Most sources seem to indicate that for younget adults and children it usually presents as a bad cold. Still serious but the mortality rate is being skewed by that many younger people dont even feel bad enough to go to a doctor. Things like the 22 year old Iranian soccer player dying have been confirmed false.

And as far as the dog thing goes, seems like hearsay thus far woth a lot of conflicting reports.

People are right to be concerned but lets not get too carried away.
