Re: WHO Moves to Phase 5: Pandemic

I don't believe the definition of pandemic actually speaks to the potential deadliness of the disease, just that is is (or in this case is likely to be) widespread and transmits easily between people. Compare the Spanish Flu to the much "milder" Hong Kong and Asian flus of the last century. All three were pandemics but you really can't compare the latter two with the first.

Here we go kids!!! This is what we've been prepping for (store, store and back again for extras at the store). The above email is great and I have used it to send to everyone still in denial on my email list.

Thanks Tea!! :applause:

Re: WHO Moves to Phase 5: Pandemic

I renewe the moved phrase: save your self

Good is the starting of the country real preparations by the rising of the level (many was dormient from the 2005, so now fall into queues).

Less good is that the patents would not be lifted off by an international join decrete, only leave at the discrecy of the individual corporations, with a claim to do that.

So maybe the generics would have troubled waters to reach the masses.

And not very good remains the decision of the board from few days ago to not shrinck the international traveling.

Even knowing that this way (as admited) the pandemic virus trasport much faster from continent to continent, no change.

The above decision would do the extra spreading by the mainly business travelers probably.
If the virus remains light, this could maybe pass somehow, but if the virus goes serious, how they seems to be more incline to think, because it is so fast and bright new, it would further change itself.

By allowing this few weeks only cargo and special flights, we all could have at least a few weeks more to breath lighter and to the countries to more prepare.

The first human scientific tracking stil fail to counterfeit the pandemic begining, no matter the space gadgets.

Sobering.

I must say that Snowy was totaly right the last summer.
He insisted on the pandemic insurgence to be near the corner.

And previously was dropped the economic pandemic, to make us more shocked.

Anyone planning on bugging out, or are you going to do that last minute shop and then close the door. or continue to live as normal and see how things go......?
 
Re: WHO Moves to Phase 5: Pandemic

Re: WHO Moves to Phase 5: Pandemic

well if it starts moving to animals, where would you go? If it joins the bird flu, will you build an underwater facility?

I'm just going to hop on my board and ride it out...

Re: WHO Moves to Phase 5: Pandemic

There is a Minnesota flu strain in it and luckily I think I caught every form of flu while I lived there, I'll just have to depend on my viking blood to tough it out...;)
 
Re: WHO Moves to Phase 5: Pandemic

Re: WHO Moves to Phase 5: Pandemic

I am not planning to bug out. Hunker down if the cfr is really ugly. We still don't know what the cfr is today. This may be, relatively speaking, not as bad as we fear. Then again it may. Time will tell. In any case preparing yourselves for a probable home quarantine is wise. Whether it is to prevent someone from getting sick or, to help someone get well after tehy were infected.

Re: WHO Moves to Phase 5: Pandemic

Re: WHO Moves to Phase 5: Pandemic

I work for a large university and will no doubt be exposed once it hits here. We're as prepped as can be for in-home quarantine as well as recovery. We'll take our chances until/unless they close the campus.

I'm going to live as normal with appropriate precautions & buy more big bottles of hand gel.

Last night I watched "winged migration" - one of my favorite movies - and was happy that those beautiful birds won't carry all the blame for a pandemic. :)

I hope we all learn not to blame any one species, nation, culture, religion, race, class, etc. We're all family on this little sphere we share.

It is true, we are all of us, humans, birds, swine, used by the influenza virus. We are ALL victims in a sense.
 
Re: WHO Moves to Phase 5: Pandemic

Re: WHO Moves to Phase 5: Pandemic

We are all prepared to ride it out at home. 3 of my adult kids live in the same city and one still lives at home, they will all come here because none of them are prepared in their apartments, and of course the grandbabies will come here. 2 Step-sons are away at college in MN and hubby said he will go get them and bring them here. Oldest daughter is in Ukraine for another 2 months doing volunteer work then she is suppose to go to Germany to visit family for another month. But we have enough to be quarantined at home for up to a year. Daughter in law is due to deliver in September, thankfully I used to be an OB-GYN nurse and have assisted in multiple deliveries if it comes to that. We live in a very large city that has a large military base on the far side that will most likely become a command center.
