N9BOW Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 💩's about to get real...Hope not, but I have been watching this for two weeks now and every 3-5 days the "reported" cases of deaths have doubled along with the "Reported Infected". Having been through a dry run with Y2k and the big nothing burger that was, and the first H1N1 virus that spooked the medical community back in early 2000's while I was working in the medical, health service Industry...... that gave me the first real life scenario of how this sort of thing spooked the Health Community of professionals......vaccine storage and prep done on a country wide scale to handle an outbreak for things we thought we knew was a pretty big deal back then...THIS on the other hand is UNKNOWN.....and smells of Steven Kings ....The Last Stand. A big woopsie...or not so much regarding the level 4 lab nearby the epicenter. China has kept a lid on it and wont let the CDC see what going on..... Be safe my friends and stock up.... so what if you are wrong.... and stuff goes to waste food wise (red wheat, beans, etc.) Get stuffs that can keep you from having to venture out if this goes bad. I pray it wont!!!! but luck favors the prepared.... . I have been cognizant of the need to be prepared for over 20 years now and put it into practice. If you have not given this any thought you might want to consider it. This one scare me a bit...Maybe unfounded. I'm hopeful that its a nothing burger....but it does not seem that way. Peace Out! BTW out sick today with the flu...go figure Mitch f 1

jdmidwest Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 33 deaths in Arkansas so far this month due to the regular flu. https://www.4029tv.com/article/33-deaths-flu-arkansas/30701208# Death reports only list the last cause of death. The majority of deaths may be sick or elderly, or immune comprised adults or children. If you are wheezing and many pounds over weight, smoking a cig and sitting around all day not moving, catch the flu and die, you are a statistic as a flu death. But, what was the actual cause? It does not reflect on healthy, average people that may just feel bad for a while and the virus runs its course and its over.

Mitch f Posted January 30, 2020 Author Posted January 30, 2020 I spoke with my Doctor a couple of months ago and was deciding wether to get a flu shot this year or not. He emphatically said I should. He told me that after years of flu shots your body builds up your immune system that is stronger every year. Needless to say I got my shot this year. I still am a big fan of vitamin C and D3 during the cold weather. Terrierman 1 "Honor is a man's gift to himself" Rob Roy McGregor

I still am a big fan of vitamin C and D3 during the cold weather. I get the shot every year too. There are a lot of naysayers, and it's not 100% effective, but the *science* shows it reduces the chances of getting the flu. And, the flu kills 10s of thousands each year. I'm also pretty diligent about washing my hands well and often, especially during the season. We don't know where this corona virus is going, but there is a tendency for hype and overreaction about stuff like this. Best of luck to your family. BilletHead and Mitch f 2 John

I'm also very careful to limit exposure and I wash my hands a LOT. Holdover habit from my operator days. Mitch f 1
