First reported cases today from Mexico.

One in Mexico city, the other in Sinaloa.

First reported case of somebody contracting CV from the general population in California. Sacramento county. The person in question had not traveled overseas recently, no known contact they can trace to people he might have been exposed to.

the hoarders in hawaii are stupid and selfish.
buy everything up and then try and return it all later
the stores should just make them keep it as punishment for being so selfish

Lucky I bought a bunch of flushable baby wipes to clean my hands for daily finger blood tests I haven't started
we got lots of ti leaves in the yard as well
we used to use ti leaves when we went hiking or camping when I was a kid
ti leaves for TP and red ginger blossoms for soap and shampoo
Every toilet should have a bidet to reduce the need for TP

I bought a waterbottle with a UV purifying cap for an up coming trip. You can use the cap to sanitize other things as well other than the water in the bottle. I always worry about the hotel tap water.

I now have a diverse 2+ month supply of shelf stable , nutritious, and easily prepared of food stuffs. i spend far more time than the average commuter inside the transit system, so I would probably catch this thing if it really gets legs. I want enough food to last out a prolonged quarantine or recovery if so.

in related news I finally joined Costco today

Glad I bought my Costco 30 packs of TP and paper towels a few weeks back. Plus a stash of baby wipes, so I’m good for a while.

Planning to go tomorrow for some OTC meds and actual food, not corona related stuff by any means. Hope it’s not a total waste of time and shitshow.

Who the hell really knows? This crap may be an engineered virus.

Designed by the Chinese and let loose on their own enormously huge population to pare it down.

That it spreads and infects the rest of the world is a plus in their global strategy. The probably already have a vaccine for all of their armed forces.

Canned goods. Bulk rice, beans and flour.

Hunker down someplace inside a healthy chain link fence.

Plenty of ammo.


You'll be good.

The homeless will be a problem.

1/4 of Americas homeless population lives in California. When CV hits the homeless population it will spread faster than a bad rash.

Limit your contact.
