First, Moss Road, thank you for pruning the stuff that needed it. What a thankless task!
As to this virus, being prepared is how to minimize panic. I tend towards a prepper mindset...not the goof balls that made the TV show...just reasonable amounts of food, drugs, fuel, supplies in case of an event. I am way overboard on weapons and other such stuff but more due to concerns about changes in the political climate and its impact on gun ownership. Plus I love to shoot!!
Knowledge is power, and we know a few things about this virus but not everything. So caution is a good thing. Keeping thread like this open is valuable to share knowledge and opinions and a smart person will discern the difference.
My sons live near Detroit, so not a good place to be if this gets out of hand. A four hour drive if the SHTF, but I am not expecting this to be that kind of event. They are young and healthy and at little risk anyway. My mon is in her late 90's in an assisted living facility in Canada and I worry about her, but she cannot come into the US. I would get her here if it was possible.
BTW, did not know there was a political forum here. That would be a great place to put our misbehaving members into "quarantine", if that was possible, and keep these threads open for the rest.
