Covid-19

It's a respiratory disease, not a bowel issue.

I get paper towel for keeping surfaces clean, but TP?

Here it's because 2 weeks ago our Federal Health Minister went on National TV and told people to stock up in case they have to self isolate. We also didn't stop flights in from Iran or China. So all of a sudden we have an uptick in cases from people returning from said countries. Now people are going crazy.

And now basically every public indoor space has been closed as of today for at least 3 weeks. I expect end of days scenario by next weekend.

Our University had a group of students go overseas, some of those students have tested positive for it and are remaining overseas for treatment, the rest of the student group have traveled back and are being quarantined at the residence. We have a couple other people in our town who are being tested.

Maybe for covering ones cough and blowing ones nose? Last summer I caught some sort of flu, I was going through so much TP I decided it was cheaper to use an old raggedy T-shirt as a snotrag.

I'll go digging around for where I found it, but some observations that picked up are that people are getting TP just because other people are getting TP. Simple as that- which then lead more people to want it because there's a perceived shortage so now there is an actual shortage.

Reminds me of .22 a few years back..
 
@Bypass mentions there’s cases in north AL, and a nurse having lunch here said there’s 3 cases here. State health nerds put out press release that we finally have our first confirmed case in Montgomery. 🤨
 
Here's the stupid thing....the law of unintended consequences...

With all kinds of activities are cancelled. There's nothing to do. People aren't necessarily going to stay home. So, what do they do? Go to the store...Target, Costco, you name it..stores are packed! It's ridiculous and shelves are stripped clean due to irrational behavior.

The one bit of good news is that I just filled my gas tank...$1.95/gal!!! I don't know when I last saw it under $2.
 
During Snowstorms I fill up my water jugs with milk and bread. During Hurricanes I fill up my water jugs with water. During Virus outbreaks that will take over the world I fill those same water jugs up with cheap gas. Since this is my first Virus outbreak that will take over the world, I don't know what I am going to do if August comes around, and I need water jugs for water again.

That's a tomorrow problem!!!!! O_o:zzz:
 
My favorite is their reason for washing your hands after you wake up.
“When one of you wakes from his sleep, let him not dip his hand into the vessels until he washes it three times, for he does not know where his hand spent the night,” the translation read.

They would probably get sick if they started washing their hands..... O_o
