Prepping for a pandemic 2

Second thread on prepping for a potential Coronavirus pandemic...following the latest news and information as well as prepping info.

When quoting estimates like mortality rates, replication rates, incubation periods and similar I try to stick to evidence based, scientific studies and will link to sources (unless already linked to them previously).

Generally speaking I use reputable sources of information like well regarded news outlets for other information and will provide links.

Sometimes I may post things outside of this as 'interesting' or such like. I will always caveat these as to be taken with caution.

As much as possible I am attempting not to link to fake news. It's an evolving picture so may not be 100% successful but if something is later shown to be incorrect I will post a correction.

@wheresmymojo we could do with a thread 3

Yep, will get on it!

So many threads popping up about CV now. I'm surprised at the lack of knowledge / misinfo abounding on most of them so might start the thread with a general info post.

Will pop back with a link to a new thread shortly.

I'm going to continue with my decluttering to make room for some supplies. I think prepping can be a positive way to deal with the anxiety of this kind of thing.

I agree pinkgin it gives you a feeling of a bit of control over the situation
