Round N Round the Mulberry Bush
I don't know about you Guys but I'm loading up on Atomizers and some other Parts for my nautilus, 'cause they are made in China (I buy through a US Distributor).
This Situation seems to be dragging out and I do believe things are far worse over there than the Chinese are letting on.
Even if a Factory re - opens, if someone Tests Positive they shut the place down again and Quarantine everybody.
Heck, I even went and got a double Prescription of my HBP Meds just in case, because I see some possible Supply Chain disruptions on the Horizon.
Its not like I can't use the stuff later....I just don't want to take any chances.
Not worried too much about Packages - I received a Purse last Week from SK.
Just washed my hands real good after opening the Package, dumping the Purse onto the Couch (so it didn't touch the Package) and tossing the Package:lol::lol::lol:

    830+ confirmed cases in South Korea,
    200+ confirmed cases in Italy,
    50+ deaths in Iran (Iranian lawmaker says 50 people are dead, but health ministry says official toll is 12) how many are infected is unknown.

    Around 200 cases of the REinfection was reported from Wuhan (China).
    Seems like even when recovered from the virus you are not 100% protected from being infected again soon after.
    2600+ deaths globally so far with ~80K confirmed cases.

    His channel sure grew 6k to 37k last time I noticed. Sadly Twitter decided blocking him was important killing off their status of global communications company. I think he is still on Instagram.

    It will be interesting when our mental patients can't get their meds. - party on laugh it up.

    Don't be ......ed. Fasttech temporarily shut down their facility as a part of a national program to limit virus spread, not because they were specifically afflicted. For most folks it was just an extended New Year vacation. EVERYTHING comes from China these days, so avoiding one specific Chinese retailer is a pointless exercise in ignorance.

    What'd I miss? Who's being ......ed? Did you mean to quote someone?

    Eh? I don't recall anyone saying this was exclusive to Fasttech.

    So far, things seem to be moving along about the same rate as in the past. Last week, I got tired of buying aio stuff after being on them for a year or so and go back to building since the aio stuff dies so quick and you're stuck. I couldn't find my aromamizer plus (it's around here somewhere but I've moved twice since I used it last :/ ) so I jumped on FT and ordered one. I may be speaking too soon, but it processed through chinese customs today and (supposedly) got thrown in a container on the slow boat. If history proves true, that puts it in my hands mid week next week so I'm dripping till then.

    I suppose we'll see. If that's the case, I'll jump on FT and order another couple unless one of you guys have one you want to part with. ha

    Hopefully you'll see it that quick,but i wouldn't count on it.That's about the same as i have usually had with them,but with the Chinese New year and then the virus stuff everything still seems to be trying to play catch up,from all the Chinese vendors.I've got 2 orders out from them now,both ordered 1/24,one shipped 2/12 and the other shipped 2/15.Both have made it to Origin post is preparing shipment,but nothing after that for quite a while now.They could be sitting in U.S. Customs waiting to be cleared,but who knows,i'll get them at some point,but definitely not as fast as usual.
