Stay healthy, and stay calm.

The biggest problem right now, is the complete panic some people are in. I know a lady that never goes anywhere, who is now checking her temperature every hour. She is more likely at this point to die of a stressed induced heart attack then COVID 19.

Personally I think the governments at all levels are over doing things. A little common sense and some increase in basic hygiene practices will do a lot more than media and government are considering.

Please, no one take that as to mean I think this is no big deal. It is a very big deal. But as freedom loving Americans we should be very concerned about the power grab by government on this.

Here in NC restaurants were already lowering seating capacity in order to encourage the social distancing "rule", then arbitrarily the governor closes down dinning. Which he did without the consent of the Council of State, in violation of state Law.

This is a problem.

:lol: Where does one find that?

Saturday I watched people act like a flock of seagulls when the supermarket brought out a pallet of toilet paper. :roll:

But I agree, the government(s) should disseminate information and let people take the precautions they deem necessary. The economic impact of this could be more devastating than the disease itself.

Pro tip: That home-made alcohol/lanolin case lube makes a great hand sanitizer that won't dry out your hands. :P

we're on "essential business only" lockdown until april 16 i think it is. call it 3 weeks anyway.

we can go out, but it has to be for groceries, banking, medical, food, etc only.

restaurants/bars have been on take-out only for over a week already, they shut down personal services over the weekend (house cleaning, haircuts, etc etc).


my residential service is all but shut down for the short term, but my commercial repair has been deemed essential since i support the habitat the live pet industry uses to house its animals. So its PPE and lots of sanitizer for me when i'm working. I was gifted a bottle of Virex (commercial surface sanitizer) to use to clean carts that i haul my tool bags into the store with by an awesome manager who's store i have taken care of for over a decade now, and told refills were available if needed.

ya'll stay safe, no licking doorknobs and such like the goofy millenials are doing.

You folks stay safe. Since the company I work for manufactures medical equipment, I'll have to be here every day.
We did send 40% of our workforce home for 2 weeks this past Friday. They are getting paid for it, which isn't happening for a lot of people.
