I looked while I was at Walmart today and they were all out of hand sanitizer. They were even getting low on liquid hand soap.

What are wwe going to do if we end up with a shortage of soap? That would be a very bad thing right now.

My girlfriend is a CNA and is a bit obsessive with the germ thing. She has been for years. Hand sanitizer and soap is not a problem t our house...

I know, my wife works for a software company that has something to do with the pharmaceutical industry. (something about tracking the drugs from development to testing to production... I should probably listen to her when she tells me what she does.)

Yes dear.....

Guess I'll have to pull a Fight Club and turn my bathtub into a soap making station if it happens.

So I read an article and had it confirmed on another forum that the covid19 virus has an outer lining that is composed of fat. Washing with regular old soap and water will kill the virus because soap dissolves fat. No need for alcohol based sanitizer unless you're not near water.

I was messaging two of my cousins in Italy today. One said if the govt and World Health Organization determine it hasn't been contained by March 15 then the country will be shut down and you WILL stay in your house for three weeks no matter what. One person from each household will be given a permit to go to a military checkpoint for supplies

well due to the corona virus having been detected in people in Indianapolis and a few suburbs, my work has now deemed that we are to work from home if all possible (no commute and less wear and tear on the car, yay!) for the next few weeks, then they will re-evaluate

Yesterday, I asked my boss’s boss if we were essential personnel and could work from home for a few weeks. His exact words “you’re move of an essential person then I am... you’re not going anywhere fu(|<er.”
