Now the hoarding will really start.
Illinois just closed all restaurants and Bars until March 30. People are
going to starve.
Drive-through and Curbside Pickup can still operate.
So Can I still go grab my Little Caesars pizza since there's no dining
area? What about the Subway in the Gas Station....

If you are a male, or a smoker, or have other conditions like
diabetes, COPD, and a few others things will be worse.

We are working on contingencies, particularly in continuity for our
communities. Our staff is as protected as can reasonably be. We have
plans for dealing with customers.
My home is as ready as reasonable. I even have a quarantine (heated
camper) if it comes to it to isolate my babies from the inevitable
flu rampage. I have resources ready for my people, and some excess
for others in need.
I still think this is not the end of the world the media is trying to
frenzy us with. I'm satisfied with our government's response. The
resilience of the average American is unmatched, so the hiccups in
response make it more than manageable.

It may be that the workers get off around 4 or 5 and put
pressure into the retail as they all rush it. Maybe all we
needed was a weekend. Ammo is starting to get thin on the
shelves, but that's just because ammo deliveries haven't
changed volumes yet.
I'm heading to the grocery store here in a bit, I heard they
got fed up and started limiting volume. It's sad when people
are so dumb that stock boys have to parent them

Things seem to have calmed down a bit today... I didn't go
to any grocery stores, but I went to Mendards, and I'd say
there was roughly a quarter as many people on there as on
a typical Saturday, and there was very little traffic on
the streets for a Saturday. I think we must be too the
point where everybody is done hoarding toilet paper and
they all went home to hide... or perhaps they just knew
the toilet paper was all gone everywhere...

People are getting serious, took the neice to buy a
9mm today and people are buying guns 2 and 3 at a

store and more actual necessities, long term foods,
dry goods, etc are starting to move. Maybe people are
beginning to calm their tits. Or they just have more
toilet paper than they know what to do with and are
starting to realize they're hungry. People ought to
consider heavy mil contractor bags, visqueen and duct
tape, cause the coroner won't be doing house calls.
It sucks that if this goes sideways that the elderly
are the impacted. Those are the ones with the know
how to get by. Half our population doesn't even know
how to make a ham sandwich

Our store last night was completely out of
Bananas, but had all the other fresh fruit/veggies.
I was also surprised at the number of people
taking pictures of the empty toilet paper
shelves, not quite sure who they would share them
with. Or in 50 years they can tell their
grandkids as they're forcing them to sit through
watching their 8 billion pictures 'Remember back
in '20 we had that virus scare and people went
crazy'

I won’t go into the grocery stores while the

day and immediately turned around. I swear
it’s scarier than the virus.
But I noticed people didn’t seem to be buying
up all the fresh produce. So now I’m wondering
if they were stocking up on potatoes. Whenever
I buy baking potatoes, I’m amazed how much food
you get for 49 cents a pound. And you don’t
have to freeze or even refrigerate them. I you
have a bunker, that’s probably where you should
be storing your potatoes anyway. I think it
used to be called a root cellar.
