SOME DRUG COMPANY JUST submitted a new test kit for FDA approval,a speedy test kit,but so far still no vaccine which can cure the disease/
What I dont understand is Italy,how can it spread so fast and so wide?
In IRAN,it came from a city where Chinese are helping to build some engineering project and there are exchange students between the 2 countries,but Italy?
Now with the country in lockdown,everyone is out getting pasta !
Pasta and rice ,you can keep a long time,not bread but flour if you know how to bake.
Or Marie Antoinette will advise you to eat cake,if no bread

it was in the news-
2 brothers in Tennesee bought 180,000 bottles by cleaning out the dollar stores,wmt,walgreen,albertson,kroger etc and list them on internet,only to be banned for price gourging,now they are sitting on huge inventory they cant sell.
Kroger is limiting the store hours,I would not be surprised others will follow.
You will be safe if you dont have to go outside your house,but to shop for staples ,avoid the after work,weekend crowd.
Small businesses will suffer,nail salon,hair salon,dentist,doctors,masseur,escort service,restaurants,movie theatres,handyman,housecleaning.
anything which would make you stand in line like customer service,skip it,
Trump may not get the virus,but Sanders and Biden could,those who dropped out like Warren and Bloomberg may count their blessing
I would think paper towels is better if they are buying for other than wiping their ass,it is stronger.
Roman soldiers get a bottle of vinegar and wooden stick,they are told to wash themselves every day.
In rural BURMA,they built their huts supported by high stilts,the toilet is a hole on the floor in the back of the hut,whatever poops dropped to the ground,they cover it with ashes and dirt ,when it gets to be too much,they just pack up and move.
In Old China,farmers advertise they will buy human manure to fertilise their crop.
In India,some monks will drink their own urine.
what is that animal,the largest rodent ,will eat its own feces to get the bacteria back into its guts to aid in digestion
who said toilet paper is cheap,me think it is rather expensive,it is bulky,yeah it is cheap if you consider bulkiness =$$.
some use newspaper,twigs and leaves and branches
baby formula?
if one is sick and cant eat solid food,wont baby formulae be good ?
toast and tea?
oatmeal,soda crackers.
clear broth
c'mon,single roll for 12 plus 8.35 ship,thats 20.35 for one roll.
surpermarkets restock quickly,just go to your local store
I wonder if buyer thinks they are buying multiple roll,wait till they file INAD

Where I'm from, back in the 80s we'd go to softball fields with our parents and watch them play. The toilets were built on a small bridge over the creek and went directly into it.
To THIS DAY, that county still has sewage drains running into the creek from houses.

yuk,remind me never go there!
My father in law built the outhouse himself,as for bugs in the flour bag,he said thats free protein !
HEB,WEGMAN-LIMIT purchases of staples like canned soup,pasta ,eggs.
KR hiring more workers to stock shelves,
AMZN may delay shipment due to items out of stock.
I am surprised no one is raiding the vitamins shelf-anti oxidant !
found 3 bottles of bleach,told I CAN only have 2.
There is also 2 lb of ground beef per person.
managed to get some spaghetti and linguine at a good price,78 cents and 99 cents,cant be too choosey.
still no SPAM.
lots of Campbell soup though
warning-pizzas are running low,pizza lovers ,grab them while they are still available
SOME families dine on pizza every night,thats all they have for dinner.
I know a family ,wife works as driving instructor ,4 daughters,every night they order 4 pizzas,one night they did not order and the pziza joint called and asked if there is a problem.
daughters married and do not cook or know how.
there is shortage now,
questions-
if domestic flights ceased,what happens to USPS mail,as USPS does not have planes like Fed Exp or UPS?

if folks are not eating in restaurant,they would have to cook their own meals,unless you are a vegan,you and your family need meat.
There is a popular cafeteria called Luby,it is closing and laying off workers,
may be your neighborhood is more affluent.
We have Kroger-2 bleach,2 lb ground beef,2 hand sanitizer if you can find any,but tons of KR brand pies,meatloaf
well,affluent people who eat steak rather than ground beef!
lobster rather than monk fish (better known as poorman lobster)
cod,salmon,halibut,Chilean bass rather than catfish (you know catfish is a bottom feeder)
Russian sturgeon caviar instead of peanut butter?
Dont you guys feast on Angus beef?
Some of the restaurants here serve Aussie beef.
Argentina has beef!
ground beef is versatile,you can make burgers,you can make spaghetti,stuff green pepper,meat loaf,chile,
popular with housewife who feed a large family
