Tell no one you have those food supplies. If we are locked down and they didn’t prepare, your neighbors might take advantage of your advance thinking.

This system tracks the proportion of death certificates processed that list PNEUMONIA OR influenza
I had a great uncle who liked to chew tobacco. He died in New York State. His death certificate listed "tobacco use" as cause of death.
He was 94.

For general information, it is useful to have recurring bills, such as utility, insurance, etc. drafted from your bank account and purchases put on one credit card which drafts from your bank acct monthly. Also this helps with bookeeping and taxes. Keep enough cash in your account to cover all this as well as a surplus for cash use. This is not always feasible for a number of reasons but this virus situation does emphasize the need to prepare for natural weather events and market downturns. It is somewhat reassuring to be a step or two ahead of calamity either natural or otherwise.

Eat the dead. You do not have to wait for a quarantine to go cannibal. Or...um...so I'm told...

Good advice from a level-headed writer.

“A challenge in a situation like this if it occurs is getting people to self-quarantine.”
They just won’t.
Many don’t have the capacity, others don’t have the will.
Real quarantine must be enforced. As China has demonstrated.

“So how are bills going to be paid if your quarantined for a month of more?”
If you don’t have online banking, get it now.

We have it all the time at tailgates. It'll sneak up on you quick though. Whoops, spelled it wrong. This is what I meant.

Plan on a massive baby boom after the quarantines end.

This is worse than those. I’m getting annoyed with people saying, “it’s just a seasonal flu.” I have employees in China and I can tell you they are reporting scary stuff.

Excellent article! This is why I’ve stocked up as well. Every other country where this goes HAS instituted regional, local or even national quarantines. It’s folly to think that won’t happen here.
To: Kaslin
Some places said to stockpile water. Water? What, is our water supply going to be cut off somehow? It doesn’t make sense.

How do you know it’s worse? Because poor, malnourished Chinese people eating fish eyes, chicken guts and rotting snakes from an unmonitored “market” started getting sick?
Nothing is worse than Ebola. If Ebola were contagious, most of us would be dead in a matter of months. Thankfully, it’s infectious.
Coronaviruses by and large are not significantly lethal. The numbers in this outbreak bear that out. More people have had it and recovered than have died.
I’m not saying don’t take precaution and don’t take it seriously. But the sky isn’t falling. And with spring/summer approaching, this bug won’t have too much more time to last in the open air.
