OK, what is the story on supply chain for TP? I went to three stores and the shelves are still bare ... I thought by now, they'd be restocked just like eggs, meat, etc.

For those who didn't hoard ... personal stock is reaching critical levels.

Shoulda hoarded :troll:

On a serious note Costco seems to have a steady supply. Can order online :pokerface:

Hondaracer 04-09-2020 10:42 AM

Costco had lots when we went on Monday.

Fucking idiots around the piles though standing there debating one or two packages leaving others to reach around them etc. Oblivious morons

Edit* so just checked my order from artscow and nothing has been updated other than “payment good” in the status. I also am pretty much certain I selected fed ex shipping method and now my shipping method is saying regular air mail..

So maybe check if you’ve ordered from them.

TP never goes bad, so it's one of those things that you could stock your entire garage with and will always be able to use it.

I think everyone is just being stupid about the whole situation and continually purchasing it whenever they're at the store and they see a supply of it.

I was a bit skeptical about using mark early on (try it once in March and basically got schooled by a few people saying they don't protect anything and I should only wash my hands more often). Wasn't until April when I just say fuck it I am going to start wearing them whenever I go out and not just when I go to crowded place.

These are the kinds of public reactions you can expect when government officials blatantly lie to them about the effectiveness of masks, because they don't have adequate supplies.
Is it any wonder why a good percentage of the population would be confused?
honesty is the best policy.

Korea now reporting 'reactivation' of infected cases previously deemed recovered.

The coronavirus may be “reactivating” in people who have been cured of the illness, according to Korea’s Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

About 51 patients classed as having been cured in South Korea have tested positive again, the CDC said in a briefing on Monday. Rather than being infected again, the virus may have been reactivated in these people, given they tested positive again shortly after being released from quarantine, said Jeong Eun-kyeong, director-general of the Korean CDC.

“While we are putting more weight on reactivation as the possible cause, we are conducting a comprehensive study on this,” Jeong said. “There have been many cases when a patient during treatment will test negative one day and positive another.”

A patient is deemed fully recovered when two tests conducted with a 24-hour interval show negative results.

I don't have issue breathing , no cough, no running nose. Did another temperature test just now and sitting at 38.6. E-mail my doctor about it. The reason I am a bit worry is because the Wal Mart I frequently have an employee with CoVID19 but the Wal Mart decided not to close it, or let the public know till a reporter got a tip and ask them
Then they admitted it.
https://www.tricitynews.com/news/cov...art-1.24115267
So the Wal Mart in question is the one in Coquitlam centre, The infected employee haven't been to work since March 22. So if anyone been to that Wal Mart from March 22 till and is showing symptom please be careful.

Man that's rough, I hope your wife isn't mad about it.

Silver lining, maybe she'll leave you alone now.

2nd order of kn95 mask arrive from artscow. This time I order the cheaper version (5 mask in a bag) quality isn't as good the the more expensive one. I say don't cheap out and get the cheaper one coz is from a different manufacturer.
