Keep up the good work. I shared some of your info with my mom who works at a school that has no idea on prep or anything.

Bro, my wife has had various students go to school with the flu.

The issue in schools is twofold: 1) parents send kids sick for various reasons, 2) schools get federal money based on attendance which lead to policy to discourage studsnts staying at home sick.

Depends on the school. School my kids go to is extremely strict when it comes to kids being sick. Slight fever, claminess, sweats, wheezing, bad cough or whatever, they will call you and tell to get your child. On site nurses check kids out and send a note bout the child shouldn’t return for 1-3 days unless checked by a physician. They heavily urge to not have sick students come in.

Shit blew me the fuck away. :joy:

Reuters: Italian daily coronavirus deaths jump 57% to 366.

Coronavirus confirmed in my city’s school district, which is one of the largest in California. A family of the student is confirmed to be infected, so the district has closed school for this week. I’m expecting this to continue as things worsen. I’ve been keeping up on the news but also trying to avoid sensationalism. Things are looking pretty bad for the US, and I think we’re going to end up having a worse outbreak than China. Italy is what I expect for things to come in the near future.

Jesus Christ.

That reminds me, we actually have a bunch of Italian posters around, right? I wonder if they’re ok.

My aunt will travel from Holland to here next week. Real happy about that, things might start to get ugly real fast in Europe and she’s old enough to be in the risk group.

There are a few youtube channels I keep track of in this situation mostly to get different perspectives on the situation. Clear up stuff I don’t understand, review daily news etc. This guy has been keeping it fairly straight forward since the start of it and does a good job of reviewing and explaining some of the things going on with the numbers and the way countries are tackling the situation:

Dude I sick and tired of fucking idiot people panicking like the apocalypse is coming.
Every Store in my area put a hard limits on every disinfectant for purchase, rubbing alcohol, peroxide, bleach, even stuff that isn’t really disinfectant like witch hazel. And I have to fucking put up with those idiots at work. Also the fucking going on with the toilet paper. Make a TP and Rubbing alcohol sandwich?

Including here

Imagine posting this right after:

I was reading about Italy’s case being, northern Italy is the rich area of the country with good medical, since they have the money. When it hits the po’ folk ins southern Italy, get ready.

I’m bowing on my greeting to people from this point on. No more handshakes.

I’m not expecting much from those in charge.

Then you fucking tell the people out there, stocking up on stupid perishable food and thinking essential oils can help make homemade hand sanitizer is going to help is fucking stupid.

How the fuck is he supposed to tell the wider population that dude?

Look, people are stocking up on milk and eggs?

Why the fuck eggs?

Deli meat that once slice expires in 5 days, fresh produce.

If you going to stock up on 2 weeks of shit, why not canned and frozen food?

Everyone gone fucking stupid

Milk and eggs last over a month. Deli meat can last 2 weeks easily when kept properly in the fridge. Why frozen and canned food for a 2 week quarantine which is what you are bitching about? Your points make no sense as those food items last more then 2 fucking weeks dude.

Answer the quetrion. How is he supposed to tell the population at large that your poor little ass is upset people are shopping in your store?

Sounds like they want to make omelettes! :hugs:

Couldn’t agree more.

I get your rant tho. People are either downplaying it like it’s just a cold or thinking that shit will turn you into a RE2 Remake zombie.

Who the fuck needs all that toilet paper!? :rofl:

Fresh Milk don’t last for a whole month, Eggs sure, but fuckers are targeting the 3 Dozen Family packs like its 1999. Cheap ass Deil meat can last 2 weeks, not the shit you have ordered and have sliced by the pound.

Milk deffinitly lasts the majority of the month. I bought a half gallon 5 days ago and it expires on the 22nd. Damn near a whole month man. I buy myself the family pack of eggs to minimize store runs, how is people buying family size a problem? Do you know the size of their families to even be making this kind of complaint? Pack meat you buy off the rack expiration dates at at least 3 weeks.

Date on the Milk bottle only good till you open it up, then you have about 14 days to finish it regardless of how far the date is.

Prepack yes, ordering from the Deli Counter, No.
