drol 11,797 Posted March 11, 2020 It is real and you better prepare yourselves! Governments should take early measures, before it's too fucking late! You realize it's like fucking hell here? I assure I'm not paid by the media to do alarmism. This is not a common flu and if you other European countries underestimate it you will have hundreds or thousands of deaths too. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is not a common flu and if you other European countries underestimate it you will have hundreds or thousands of deaths too. People do need to get stocked up and prepared. I'm more prepared than most , I have a portable generator, all different types of medicine and food and water to last a month should SHTF. No this isn't me but it's similar to what I've stocked from 7 mins onwards , the first 7 mins is him hoarding chocolate & angel delight. I even have the same fuel tank lol Also people with young kids stock this up , you can get it in Holland and Barrett aswell. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sambucol-Natural-Elderberry-Vitamin-Supplement/dp/B003GB6VJO People better start to learn to enjoy cold tinned food and fray bentos pies. Tinned food as long as it's sealed can last nearly a decade aswell so ignore the used by date. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drol 11,797 Posted March 11, 2020 Actually there is no need to prepare for an antinuclear war. It would be enough to: 1)avoid any gathering of people. From 2 people onwards. 2)Keep at least 1 m (some say 2 m) of distance from other people, unless you live together. 3)Don't move from home if not for work or emergency 4)If you are taking public transport surgical mask can be very useful 5)Wash your hands every time you come back from outside. 6)Keep surfaces clean, use alcohol. 7)Avoid touching mouth and eyes with bare hands if not washed. 8)Use rubber gloves if possible. That's simple, but enough to prevent spreading of virus. If Italian government had decided to lock the country two weeks ago it would have been over, like IT IS in Codogno and Vo Euganeo (the initial red zones). They instead preferred to underestimate the problem, hide it and results were CATASTROPHIC. Now they are trying to save what they can. And they will. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
