Having relatives and friends scattered all over the globe, I am getting an overload of input (some on the record and some off the record).

My intention for this thread is for community members from around the world to post first hand stories and/or links to information sources that, for the most part, should be reliable.

In my community, just outside a major southeastern city, 'assets' have been placed. Only because I have friends in both high and low places have I heard about some of this. At this point it is only some basic medical supplies that should be equally distributed anyway in preparation for a natural emergency (hurricane/wildfire/etc.).

I will start with posting a link to a site with current data that seems to come from an aggregate of sources and hope others will do the same as they come across similar sites/pages.

Because of the 'typhoid Mary' spread-ability of this disease, I feel we may be in for a really large spread globally which will impact the global economy and through extension, retail domain prices.

One thing is for sure...things will get worse before they get better.

so i watched today a video.. where uk was debating letting people with antibodies go back to normal life..

so they talked about first of all.. a test to test if you got antibodies... then if you do.. they give you like a stamp in the passport.. and you can go back to work.. back to hugging your friends if they got a stamp too of course.. and basically back to your old normal life... except everything willl be closed mostly... i guess.. like a bar.. so you can't go for a beer.. unless the bar owner has clearance stamp too..

its amazing how easily we gave up our freedoms... without virus threat (or alien invasion threat or some other threat).. im pretty sure people wouldn't go down so easily.. then again.. maybe we would too. maybe being slaves is just a genetic thing for us.

People have given it up much much easier than i would have ever thought, the fear of death appears to be the reason in my view, hindsight will be 20/20 for may people as they may actually wish they were dead as opposed to be alive once all this over. rather it be by full country economic depressions or by a new world order standard or whatever, life will never be the same, I have heard of suicide rates going off the charts while this taking place, I ask myself why? why would a person kill themselves instead of fight? If that is the condition of of our society, and it appears to be, we never had a chance to begin with.

Ok Guys, The thief's and scammers are out here, I would assume they are out where you live as well now, A few things that are happening here, People are going to peoples houses asking them if they need help, then intruding their home, people are standing at traffic lights like they are going to cross the street, then picking victims to run up to their car and grab their stuff, people are waiting outside grocery stores and picking victims to steal from, so the bad people are out here, there have been a few shootings of conceal carry holders shooting these bad folks.

Be aware of your surroundings at all times, keep your firearm with you or near you at all times, anyone who comes on your property or to your door should have a phone number you can call them on, don't open your door. ask them to leave immediately or simply do not answer to knocks and demands.

Stay well and be safe
Sounds like a typical day in NYC, Chicago, Philly, SF Bay, LA, Boston, etc... :ROFL: :xf.wink: (It may sound kinda funny, but unfortunately, it's true...)

seasonal huh? wow.. good luck to us.. we can expect mess like this and violtions of our freedoms to come back whenever the heck they'll feel like it or need to do it... and then just blame it all on seasonal flu.. wow... suddenly the future looks bright again ;)

no but really.. at this point they can just feed the masses whatever... and the masses believe it... i knew we were brainwashed.. but this is beyond brainwashed.

well said.. as the saying goes...
die thou standing!

not sure where this is all headed... i read a lot lately.. many still claim trump is the good guy in all this... using this as smokescreen to clean up the mess of others ... jail a few people like hilary etc.. in short, make the world a better place when all this is over..

its a bit hard to see now how that's possible.. but we all know that sometimes we gotta go through dark to reach some light..

besides, our world wasn't so hot before either to begin with.. so maybe anothr way to look at things is that its not really gonna be all that easy to make it any worse than before.

i mean u know.. its just a way to look at things. depending on where your standing.

These are trying times and a serious pandemic. Some people are mentally stronger than other people. There may be a lot of suicides.

well u know. lock people up in their homes.. no fresh air... no friends... crappier foods... destroy their immune systems.. no exercise.. this is proven recipe for depressions... and depressions can be recipe for suicide..

trump was right when he said cure cannot be worse than problem.. but it is... he shouldn't have changed his mind.

People need to think deep, in regular times, would they let someone kick the living shit out of them, possibly kill them without fighting back???? most would at least try and defend themselves i would think, This is no different , if the self isolating is driving them to commit suicide, Go outside! walk around get fresh air, clear their head, if they have to get in their car and drive, do it! people in locked down cities are still allowed to go to the pharmacy or grocery store.

from what i see happening with people on Tv and ect, people need to get pissed off instead of rolling up into a corner, fucking get mad with this virus, take the necessary precautions to try and not get the virus, but wake up and get pissed with it.

people can get fresh air, patios, a dog park in their neighborhood, there are many ways to get out of the house, people are simply succumbing to this, that is what i am seeing, people don't have to, if they are choosing to they are weak mother fuckers, like i said, get pissed off with this virus, do the things they can do, stop worrying about things they can't do anything about.

Is It Time for Americans to Embrace the Bidet?

Sanitary wipes, for example, aren’t designed for the narrow sanitation systems in place. Days ago, I awoke to the sound of sewage bubbling up from my bathtub drain in my apartment. Later I discovered that the six-inch water pipe had been blocked; someone in my building had flushed wipes down the toilet.

According to a spate of reports across the country, the toilet paper panic has led to people flushing things down the toilet that they really shouldn’t — wipes, napkins and paper towels — which has caused blockages.

thats what i meant...they can but they wont. cause people weak to begin with... so add one more stress...modify routine.. and for many its too much.

To quote a line from Andy Duphresne in Shawshank Redemption either, "Get busy living or get busy dying."

Yes i see, people are weak as fuck, would rather commit suicide , crawl into a corner and bawl and have a pity party as opposed to fighting their way out of a backed corner, Fucking pussies, with that said, they deserve what they get then, If i go down, i will go down fighting to the last breath, what i am seeing is un fucking believable , and never throughout time have people just laid down and given it all up , not over an invasion of anything, through all the wars, through all the pandemics the world has seen throughout times, has never happened.
