Viral infections are often accompanied by diarrhea.

It is also very valuable for bartering, if things get bad enough.

Unconfirmed, but word is leaking that FEMA and DoD are quietly standing up various Continuity of Government sites and stress-testing their telecom architecture.

It's unconfirmed because it's untrue. There's no way FEMA is going to have any foresight and do something proactive that might actually helps matters down the road. Everything has to follow a bureaucratic process that is designed to slow down decision making and create reactionary responses after the emergency blows up.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said the state would deploy National Guard troops and establish a “containment area” in a Westchester County suburb at the center of the*coronavirus outbreak*in the state.

Starting Thursday, the state plans to close facilities for two weeks in a roughly three-square-mile area of New Rochelle, officials said.

Contractors are pissed.

My dad was commenting on this. He said it's impossible to get dust masks right now, so he's actually re-using his when doing drywall. Mostly just an inconvenience.

A whole lot of 'entrepreneurs' bought out the stocks of N95 and are reselling at 4-10 times MSRP.

I really hope my job gives us extended paid time off in light of this virus. I think this virus is making people dumber.

Some companies and universities switching to class/work from home. That’s a good step, maintain a level of productivity while limiting the spread.

Hope for the best!

Entertaining kids give me more headache than crunching numbers at work.

I started to love Home Depot since becoming a home owner. Learned a lot just walking around, looking at items I never knew exist, learned the usage on the spot, then little home improvement here and there.

We sell so much different stuff on line. I can't keep up with it. :icon14: The store has a 200,000 items on the shelf. On line is something like 2.5 million. You can order boats through us. :icon14: Had 2 last year come in.

Why stop there? Pretty soon, HD will be able to sell cars and homes.

I've always wondered, why does HD have a faceless person mascot?
