Corona Virus #6

Yes,plus take daily dose of zinc and you won't get it.

Amazon is out of the zinc I've been taking
Amazon.com: Nature's Way Zinc Lozenges, with Echinacea and Vitamin c 6 Count Packages (Pack of 3): Health & Personal Care

So I searched on zinc in my orders and found
Amazon.com: U-Turn - M8-1.25 x 2 mm Hex Flange Bolt Din 6921 1.9 Zinc Yellow (1 Pack): Industrial & Scientific

Do y'all think one of those would do : ( )

"But, if everyone else wears one, YOU will be protected."

I agree that if EVERYONE wore masks, we would bend the curve and be much safer. Problem is, where are the masks?

They're being hoarded ... by those who don't need them.

I've gotten 3 junk calls today, maybe more when I wasn't paying attention. The landline phone is set silent but it lights up and shows the caller's number and name. So far all calls had various cities as caller names. Those calls are 100% bogus.

This has to be random calling. I don't need a car warranty when the newest car was bought in 2004. Don't need my credit card terms modified or whatever that call says after I cut them off. Calls from Microsoft Windows might be fun to play with until I refuse to provide a credit card.

They're still out there.


In contrast to the landline number, my cell phone gets less than one spam call a week. Sonic (ISP) does a good job of preventing those.

Maybe if you know someone with a screw loose!

probably some of them working from home. All they need is a phone. But I bet the big call centers with the predictive dialers are shuttered.

If Drew is a loon for what he said as quoted above then I will be happy to be one too

There are some very wise people on here if all work together we as a country can come out this

I agree completely. WE do need to work together. We are all in the same boat.

Guys,

Appreciate your concerns. Just a bit of background.

I live in a very remote part of the state. 3 houses on the 2.5 mile road to my place and I am I surrounded by 1000's of acres of state land. My neighbor is not far from my mailbox...which is 2.5 miles away. This neighbor has been taking precautions (as we have). He is worried as well and being careful. If there are other cars at the neighbors we had already decided not to go in.

Closest town is Johannesburg...12 miles away. It has a population density of 14 people per square mile. No cases in our county (10k) and 1 case in the next county from a man at our church who had returned from a mission to Ethiopia...none of the others on the mission tested positive.

Like I said, we are remote. I know that it only takes one contact to screw things up so we will be careful.

I cannot imagine living without any other human interaction for another 3-4 weeks....maybe longer????? TBN is a great outlet but not the same as a friend.

I am by nature a loner, as is my wife. When I am on the road working I have to deal with people ad nauseam; being home with just her and the dogs is heaven... :cloud9:

Doesn't "floating in the air for hours" kinda make a six feet distance between people seem like not enough??

We have to question the validity of that "six feet distance" everybody is quoting. If somebody with the virus is outside and sneezes what would prevent the virus from going miles?!
