Re: Coronavirus (non political)

I wonder if Sunnyside ever found any toilet paper. The country store close to me has it again, but the local as in 30 miles away Walmart is still out. I just went to the pharmacy and was talking to people who were shopping. There were also signs all over the place saying limit one on all items. So what if somebody is buying soup, you can only have one can of soup? The Safeway my girlfriend shopped at this past weekend had limits but they varied by type of item.

morning bob,

ive stopped going to stores, so no I havent found any. we have 4.5 rolls left. my reusable toilet paper baby wipes things came in from amazon, i feel like i just bought 30 wash clothes honestly. they will be handy for many things even if i dont use them for bathroom uses.

im basically just going to work then home at this point. brought my daughter into work on tuesday and she immediately touched public door handles, putting her fingers in her mouth etc ... so I had a panic attack and yesterday we just stayed home.

awesome day, we cleaned her room, did some homework, went for a long nature walk playing imagination minecraft, had a pizza delivered by a guy practically in a hazmat suit.

I went to the local Food Lion today to get things I cannot buy at the country stores off the beaten path. I cruised the toilet paper, paper towel, and facial tissue isle just for the hell of it, totally cleaned out, except for 5 boxes of facial tissue. I was just there to buy OTC meds and supplements, those still had decent stock. I asked the clerk ringing up my order if the hoarding and insanity are starting to die down. He said no, and they got an overnight shipment of TP and the like late Saturday night that was put on the shelves after closing. The store opened at 7am Sunday morning and by noon their normal week's shipment of TP was gone.

All I can say is "Are you kidding me?". This hoarding and panic are making things so much worse. Your hoarding can be taking things away from people who really need them.

The number of known coronavirus cases in Louisiana jumped to 2,305 on Thursday, an increase of 510 cases from Wednesday, and a total of 83 deaths, according to the Louisiana Department of Health. Nearly half of Louisiana's cases -- 997 -- came from New Orleans.

The city also reported Thursday that a 17-year-old teen died after contracting the virus, bringing the city's coronavirus death tally to 46 -- more than half of the state's total death count.

New Orleans saw its first coronavirus case on Mar. 9. Two weeks later, confirmed cases jumped to 567 and nearly doubled the following three days, marking one of the fastest coronavirus growth rates in the country.

Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and the face of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, said officials in New Orleans were likely caught off guard by the virus' stealth spread -- until it began burgeoning.

"It putters along and you think you’re OK, then it starts to go up a little and then – bingo! – it goes up in an exponential way," he said in an interview with CNN. "That’s what's happening in New Orleans now."

I love New Orleans ... but man, they are not good at being on time, responding appropriately, or taking things seriously .. or living healthy ... oh my.

That is so important, parents bad mouthing each other does nothing but hurt the child.

I was a single dad for about 10 years before I remarried. When it came to our daughter we did what we had to do and no bad mouthing the other but I hate the bitch. She abandoned our daughter and goes on and off drugs all the time. I'm very good friends with her family and they also pretty much hate her too. LOL

Re: Coronavirus (non political)

Looks like the toilet paper hoarding is getting worse not better. McMaster Carr which is a supply house to industry had toilet paper on a 3 week back order two weeks ago, the back order is now quoted at 7-8 weeks. Uline, a shipping supply company has toilet paper available to existing customers, with a limit of two cases. To be considered an existing customer you must have made a purchase as recent as 2019.
