You aren't him!
You can still go to the city.

No way! Too many Corona cases.

Although it’s down here now too.

You can do the baking soda vinegar toilet bomb. There on tons of recipes online.

I know that. White vinegar does a good job on lime scale too. Just let it soak overnight. However, I like to use The Works but I can certainly live without it. What I cannot understand is the rush on cleaning products in general and toilet paper in particular. There is not a roll of toilet paper to be found anywhere in my neck of the woods. I can see stocking up on canned goods and pet food etc., but toilet paper? Fortunately, I have a good supply and I did manage to find two bottles of The Works today.

Also that initially autocorrected to “better eat” cow instead of pet cow! What!?

Is this your way of telling me you want me to catch this Corona crap?

I have a cousin who is a charge nurse at a medium sized hospital in Portland, OR. At the beginning of last week they had zero cases of COVID19. The next day they had two. Overnight 20 new cases were admitted. Two of those are in critical condition and are on ventilators. There were even some patients that were young enough to be put in the pediatric ward. I haven't talked to her since. Scared to.

NO.
Just wash your hand and don't leave your house.
You will be fine.

We have a few cases here the store shelves are empty on pasta tp clean supplies. It’s crazy

Truth is you have many more cases than anyone in any state is aware of. You can only get tested in CT with a prescription or if you are already in the hospital and come down with symptoms. They are not admitting people because they have symptoms and you can’t get a prescription unless you are on chemo, or on immune suppressants due to a recent transplant, so they only cases that they are confirming as positive are those who are tested under that strict criteria. And those are the cases that are announced on the news. There are many more cases in your area. They are doing phone evaluations with the rest of the people that don’t fall into that category and diagnosing yes or no over the phone and then asking those that have all of the symptoms to self quarentine. That is why they are saying this is much more serious an outbreak than people realize. I was “phone diagnosed” and have been sick, it will be 2 weeks tomorrow.

Even scarier - the price of those aquarium products containing chloroquine has gone through the roof online.
I was looking for it last night ... Just in case...

Did you hear about the AZ couple who took some? The husband died. The wife is still alive (I think) but hospitalized from it.
