I appreciate that very much Rellgar! You are operating far ahead of most and I can’t help but think it will be your saving grace. Will be starting maintenance of MMS as soon as the chlorite arrives. Have finally read a lot about it and printed the protocols. Have started magnesium, selenium and lots of garlic daily.
SAVE your antibiotics!!! They have absolutely no effect on a Virus, only bacteria. If and only If she shows bacterial infections, then the antibiotics. They will also partially kill the good bacteria in you body, (especially intestinal). She will need a homemade and no older than 4 days joghurt. Get some fresh milk, get some joghurt bacteria, get the milk warm and not over 60 degrees F. and let it cool down again slowly. In the morning, fresh joghurt, but, the good bacteria dies within 6-7 days and it no longer helps...
PS: go through all of your meds, read carefully about the mixing of certain drugs and the avoidance of mixing the wrong ones....
UK government just ordered full UK lockdown, shelter in place for at least 3 weeks, All shops, cinemas, theatres, sports , liesure and retail facilities closed cept FOOD shops, Railways essentially Nationalised. Emergency police given to police and military.
I should have been clearer. I want those antibiotics so if one of us get the virus and it turns into pneumonia and the hospitals are so overwhelmed they won’t treat us or run out of antibiotics. With China threatening us it is very possible. I’ve read several stories now and just listened to two different doctors stating their protocol was chloroquine and azithromycin for patients with the virus and pneumonia. Since I could not get any azithromycin I settled for Doxycycline. Only in the case of pneumonia.
The fresh milk and fresh made joghurt is a great idea! Will try making some tomorrow as I’ve never done it, but it doesn’t appear complicated.
Acquired a PDR last year and rely on that before doing anything with medications. Have lots of notes from physicians too.

The CDS will work as an antibiotic also. Always good to have multiple ways to do something.
Absolutely Rellgar! Very good to know the CDS also works as an antibiotic. Right now my sodium chlorite says it will be delivered anytime from April 4 to the 15. Ugh! Starting to panic a bit. For some reason I feel I’m going to come down with the virus before that. I ordered zinc too...the liquid kind and it is supposed to be here on April 2nd.
Really wishing at this point that I had found you MUCH sooner! But very grateful I did!!
Remember, nothing is a miracle cure. (I'm honestly very skeptical of the chemistry behind MMS/CDS but as long as it isn't doing any harm it might do some good.) But we all have to do what we think best to protect ourselves and our families. Definitely practice good hygiene and try to practice social distancing, use PPE (correctly) if you have to be in close contact with others, and you will be much less likely to be infected with the virus.
You can also buy the packets or capsules of probiotic bacteria. They generally contain the same bacteria found in yogurt plus other bacteria beneficial to the digestive tract and the body. They are also not a miracle cure but definitely have benefits when taking antibiotics.
Travis county ( Austin area) and Dallas County ( Dallas area) have a shelter in place going on. It's getting closer to me. I bet in a couple of weeks, I will also have a shelter in place order. I heard Louisiana has one as well. I haven't been able to confirm that just yet.
Today the hospital was asking all the outpatient clinics to donate all extra PPE and sanitizing wipes we may have had in stock.
Louisiana definitely has one state-wide. We have one in my county in Texas as well. It's not a complete lockdown; we can still go to the store, go outside as long as we stay 6 ft from other people, and go to work if we have "essential jobs" (which I do). But non-essential workers have to stay home and you cannot visit family or friends unless you are actively taking care of someone.
Kate, how are you doing? I hope you are getting rest and not being overworked. I appreciate your advice. Be safe.
So are they expecting you to just close down?
They are going to close some and have some of us work from home.. and then who knows.
They are looking to do more phone doc stuff up this way at the clinics...
Everyone is impacted by this. Just do your best to keep yourself and your family safe.
Telemed has been growing for a few years now. There are healthcare facilities that have pc screens set up. Works really well for dermatology and the more minor illnesses. Lets a physician see more patients...and without exposure.

Still locked down watching it rain. New batch of storms with tornado potential so watching the skies for the day. The only thing worse than having to be locked down to the place is being locked inside the house. Tennessee infected up to 615. Growing at an average of 100 a day. None in my county but all around. Since most of my county is comprised of National Forest/State Parks and Forestry Land hoping for the best. Put a quilt top on the frame and will work on that for the day. Staying busy, safe and thinking of those less fortunate. Stay safe my fellow preppers.

You too. I've been social distancing for over a month now.
It's a little crazy at work but we're making it day by day.
I hope y'all are staying safe. Remember, stay calm and make good decisions.
Stayed up late tonight as bad storm moved through the area. Rained most of the day. Great part about being being quarantined and inside the house. He can't get away! I got so many honey do's done today it just aint funny. And another list for tomorrow.
Well the number of cases in Tennessee today only went up by 50. It has been rising steadily by atleast 100 per day. Anxious to see what happens tomorrow. Still no Reported cases in this county. Governor closed restaurants to seating cusomers but eased the liquor law so that not only can food be delivered but also booze statewide. I live in a dry county so I am sure the religious groups within the county are not pleased.
We may try to make an online order from Kroger for some fresh fruit and such and some dairy products before things get worse and just pick them up curbside. Trying not to hit the preps until we have to. Traffic from the front window looks pretty light so maybe more people are paying attention. Stay safe

Governor has asked schools to stay closed until April 24th.
My son is not happy. I will love it if we get some sunshine and the soil dries and warms.

We are now going shopping for both my son at home, quarantine after helping someone move who was in contact with a positive person, and then also for my daughter, granddaughter and daughters partner. They were with my son last Friday for her birthday. My wife and I are healthy but we get to go shopping for them all, she drives and I get our and do the shopping, disinfect as I get into the car and again when we get home...

Aussie Rednecks?
Is it the same people buying both? Or is there one group buying mainly ammo (to be prepared, nothing wrong with a bit of alcohol too though) and the other group buying all the alcohol because they've given up?
Yup

What is new in my area. . . well I worked the overnight shift Sun into Monday. My cheese world has not seen a truck since all this started, but I was able to work on my job for most of my night since I had backstock for my area. Once I was finished I was able to stock other [places of the store which we had ALOT. come in on multiple trucks. Still had holes in the store though as in not all selections came in. I went back last night into this morning. I saw that the store in a whole didn't have much stock that came in overnight but since we had a Boars Head truck come in along with some store brands from Tues AM truck I was able to fudge my cheese wall to make it look full. The grocery part didn't have much stock come in at all last night.
I did end up going back into the store because we are/maybe going to go into a shut down on the county and wanted the papers stating that I am going to work at an essential workplace. Meeting today in a few minutes at noon for decision but really think it will be a go. I just really would like to have a paper to show if I get stopped at 4- 6 in the morning. The store had gotten a delivery of toilet paper and paper towels between 5 when I left and 9 when I went back in.
A testing site has been set up for my county which will offer testing for 5 different counties, by appointment only. They can do 25 test a day so the screening done and you have to meet all criteria to get one.

In my neck of the woods, the governor placed everyone on a home lock down until April 30th. The schools are now out until fall. Of course essential people are still working, which is good, but it includes all my kids, so I worry. Had to take my mom to the ER yesterday as we thought she might be having a stroke, she was not thank goodness, just some confusion. Hospital did not keep her as the doc told me “you do not want her staying here!” So I figure they were trying to tell me that have positive cases. One thing I’ve wondered, here in Oklahoma we have a lot of Indian Clinics and Hospitals, do they report to the state their positive cases? I know my kid works at one and was notified that they had a patient that tested positive for COVID-19 two days ago, yet it wasn’t on the OK website... so I was just wondering. Around here, even though we are supposed to be on a kind of lock down, it seems like everyone is just going about as normal. I’ve been watching this since it started, nurse with a special interest in viruses here, and on January 19th knew this would go pandemic... I can’t remember why I knew, I think it was just the explosiveness of it that scared me, so I started prepping more. Always wanted to be a big time prepped but could only do a bit at a time, note medical than anything else... but I did start to get more food, meds, did get a N99 mask.. I did not panic and have not boarded, just got a bit extra each time I went to the store because I knew there would be panic buying and hoarding... started gathering stuff for my mom too. Anyway, I’m skipping off topic... sorry. It’s nice to have these forums to read and talk to people, everyone around here thinks everything is just fine. They don’t realize that if this virus has only a 1% fatality rate (the actual fatality rate is about 3%) that in a country with 330 million people then 3.3 million ppl die.. multiply that by the actual mortality rate plus the fact that no one seems to be prepared and it goes higher. I’m older with underlying health conditions and I don’t want to die.
