Test, test, test. Last week all of Germany ran >100000 outpatient tests, in-hospital test counts are unknown, ramp-up in progress... x3 compared to the week before.
The panic is starting to set in here. I had a few calls from friends looking for firearms and a possible place to bug out to. Take a deep breath and think things through people.
They aren't exactly wrong to be thinking of worst possible scenario. If it gets bad enough being somewhere sparsely populated and armed is not a bad idea.People I don't want to be near.
But we can't go see them!I hope the more enlightened Americans try to talk sense in to their less informed friends, convince them this isn't then end of the world,
Honestly, that's what it's like here too but unfortunately the media keeps spinning this as if people are having shootouts over toilet paper.I go to the supermarket several times a week, shelves are fully stocked, people are calm and collected, no hoarding, keeping distance and making the best of it.
If it bleeds, it leads. I know, and although the media is bad here, its not like "over there".@avanti I don't know how the media is there, but it always tends whip up anxiety in people and induce panic buying. Social media only compounds the issue.
CDC and the US gooberment went from being fairly complacent to holy shit overnight when the economy started tanking.
Granted, I've been lassiez faire myself, just increasing frequency of hand washing and avoiding touching my face. But with how things have been getting close to home now, avoiding social contact is now on the menu.
Down to just 3 rolls of TP. Shelves still empty.
7 days max until I have to floss my arse with a tetchy Yorkshire Terrier and pray he survives the spin cycle.
Real talk, if you're down on TP, shop towels at your local auto parts store should be in stock
Time your porcelain time so you can jump in the shower right afterwards to wash off. No TP necessary at all that way.
