This TP shortage is really sh

Not positive but most people when ill spend lots of time in bed and the bathroom. Although the 'runs' may not play a role in this virus it seems to be an automatic response when people hear the 'flu' which at first this virus was being compared to other flus. Only thing that makes any sense to me for the run on tp.
Just my thoughts.
Backup for Kleenex, perhaps.
The EUC ceramic in the veco plus 4ml tank is still running nicely. When the apple pour flavoringcones in I'll probably make a batch of it up (maybe combined with some cinnamon Danish?) as my changeup eliquid (not replacing my adv or the lemon mix I run in a second squonker).

Walmart was almost emptied out of staples. Toilet paper has been gone. Aisles completely cleared of items. It seems every day it gets worse with the amount of shoppers and empty shelves. Crazy times. And everyone is so quiet in Walmart. I’m done. The only way I’ll go shopping is if my parents or immediate family need anything. I hope to never see this again. Does anyone think this could have been handled differently? Is the mayhem necessary? I know I’ve contributed to it but I guess all this is just scary. I got paper face masks in today with N95 masks on the way. I look at myself, similar to my vape stocking, and feel stupid and insane for spending all this money and having all this stuff. 
News channels and the experts all keep saying no need for public to wear mask or stock up on the items at all. No one listens or believes. That is why shelves are empty and hospital staff have shortages of the masks. Seems to me they should have the priority for the mask before public does since they are the ones actually in contact with those who are sick. And if they get sick because they havent got enough supplies then no one will be available to care for the patients. People allow fear to dictate their actions instead of logic.

I said when the first cases were announced in the US, I fear the actions of hysterical panicked people more than I fear the virus.
I haven't changed my mind yet.
I'm not talking about anyone here, just in general.

I've had some problems with my windows in my car too but not that excessive, I clean the windshield every week I. I cleaned all the windows a couple weeks ago for the first time since 6 months ago when I bought it brand new. I actually made a thread about this because I was having trouble getting all the vape off.
Best Cleaner for getting Vape off car windows
I'm max VG, 6% nic, Cinnamon Danish Swirl flavoring. It's kind gold looking juice.
I ended up going with this stuff that was recommended. I'm going to try it tomorrow and do all of the windows. Maybe outside too.

Also... You can still get wet wipes on Amazon for reasonable prices, especially if you have Amazon Fresh in your area. You won't need to be using much of your TP supply if you have a bunch of those around.
I ordered two eight packs. Now sold out but there's other brands and listings. I use them anyways so it really wasn't ordering anything extra as much as getting a bunch up front.

Just shy of 1 month,,, instincts working.- no regrets
If you are quarantined for two weeks or they start shutting down entire regions like Italy you do kinda need to stock up. It’s a shame that America doesn’t have enough necessities for medical staff. Not enough isolation rooms or ventilators. Or that testing kits are not readily available. But every time I turn on the news or read the internet the stories are getting worse and worse and nobody is easing those fears everyone has and are bombarded with. I don’t blame the folks trying to take care of their families in crisis...I don’t blame anyone...but it seems this has escalated and people are scared. Doom and gloom.
Baby wipes are handy to have.

I guess I approach this differently than most. I'm not stocking up on hand sanitizer, TP, masks, or any of the prevention items that are being bought up (even though it's been clearly stated from multiple sources that this stuff really don't help). I prepped for when I pretty much inevitably get it. The proper medicine to relieve the symptoms, and basics that I normally buy monthly. Whatever is going to come will come, no matter if I put paper over my face or how clean my hands are. The only concern I have is for my son, he has leukemia which puts him on the danger list. I honestly have zero other concerns other than him. And since there really isn't anything that can be done to effectively prevent it yet, it's just a waiting game to see what happens.
I had heard that the majority of masks are made in China and they may not had enough to share fully with US or other countries. There is so many conflicting stories out there it makes people wonder if they have been told the entire truth--I do get that--but what most of us don't know(I just mean in general --the public --not anyone here specifically--)is that China was infected long before it was being recognized in the mainstream until sometime in Dec/Jan. In this country most people were focused on the Impeachment of the pres. Paying little attention to all else happening here. I think that is why now it seems pretty quick for China cases to be going down when it really was around much longer over there. And other Asian countries started development of their needs cause they were getting cases before us and that is where it spread first. So of course it stands to reason they would now be at full capacity to produce products and testing kits while the US is really scrambling to catch up to speed quickly and info isn't always consistent.If you are quarantined for two weeks or they start shutting down entire regions like Italy you do kinda need to stock up.

Masks do nothing to keep you from getting the virus. Masks only stop the infected from spreading the virus.

Precisely. And the people who can't understand that are just circle jerking, trying to gain the feeling of control in an uncontrollable storm. It causes more stress and panic and does not help anything in any way.
A properly worn mask does help you from catching the virus. It's simply a bit of a hassle to wear long term, to make sure it has a full seal, and needs to be disposed of after use. It's a different use case from my typical scenario, takes user care to be effective but certainly does work.
I use them when cutting pressure treated wood, outdoor chores when the pollen count is really high, and garbage tasks like attic cleaning. The vented ones are great when you have to wear safety glasses, much less trouble with lens fog.
If a person is sick, wearing the non-vented kind keeps them from spreading the virus when they sneeze or cough.

The people who really need the masks are health care workers caring for the infected. They are scrambling to get enough produced here to meet the demand, since they've been outsourced to China for many years. That's the problem that is exacerbating this whole crisis - too much medical outsourcing to China by the "free" trade globalists for too many years. And now it is biting us big time.
All the virus experts disagree with you. They have been saying on the news that your first statement is false. The experts are the ones that are saying a mask only stops the infected from spreading the virus. A mask doesn't stop the healthy from getting the virus.
I guess it hasn't shocked or surprised me after being through a few incoming hurricane preps. I don't see much difference for what is or is not in stock. The one difference I am seeing is people are much more combative with the virus stuff.Walmart was almost emptied out of staples. Toilet paper has been gone. Aisles completely cleared of items.

Our governor cancelled school until after easter break. Our School district is requiring teachers to go to work anyways. Yeah that makes sense....NOT.
I am looking at it much the same way I do the runup to May 12th. There will be shortages. Best to prep early because from here on out its going to be a bumpy ride for vaping.
zar, i've seen the stats.
for reasons no one understands, children under 12
either don't get the virus or get such a mild case no one notices.
the next age group is about the same.
your son is probably safe.
the older you are, the worse it is.
