I do know, with 100% certainty, that...

...nobody knows with certainty.

In the spirit of this inquiry proceeding from the known unknown, and having defined the future as an established uncertainty, I hereby invoke the Boy Scout code to be fucking prepared.

Why not stock the freezer with stuff you're going to buy and eat sooner or later anyway? Even if the bug is a bust the supply panic could be real and snowball.

If we don't know then we should...

...not think like Tapeworm so there's plenty left on the shelf for him.

Aw, thanks.

Fear people's panic more than the virus itself. Good point. Stock up on toilet paper too while you're at it.

Toilet paper!!! Lol. That’s how you know it’s all bullshit panic. People are worried about wiping their ass. Yep cause you’ll die if you had to clean your butt with your hand and then wash your hand. You should stock up on things you wouldn’t be able to live without after a few day’s. Mainly water and food and medicine. not toilet paper.

I know. No idea what's up with the toilet paper. Kinda like people in the south of the US buying up all the bread and milk when there's snow in weather forecast. Why bread and milk?

Why would medical workers be worried about their health being in danger?

My sources have been in touch with the British PM BJ. Schools will be closing, no crowds at sporting events, concerts cancelled, people told to work from home etc. Basically a unenforced lockdown by the end of the week or slightly later if they can get away with it.

They are trying to last out as long as possible to try do some damage limitation with regards to the economy.
Do not dip into the markets. Just remember that the markets right now even after taking a hit are basically where it was at during the dot.com peak. It will snowball. Be patient and we will all be richer fellass

Was in Costco this past Sunday. Business as usual other than alot of people were hoarding toilet paper. It was almost all gone 20 minutes past doors opening.

Lots of water and food though.

They probably think the government won't let them starve out and that they'll come around door to door with food parcels for everyone.

Seems the likely progression as China has numbers going down. Although thry welded people into homes because the stupid plebs were ignoring the quarrantine orders. Oh well, human rights or save the people?

Market is going down hard. The bottom will be after quarantine measures have taken place. All my cash will be dumped into the market (banking, aero) and ride the wave up. No brainer.

The cryptos were hillarious. So many wanting to get out of the dead horse that when it ramped like a bastard there was an immediate selloff pushing it back to where it was. Sucks to be those who just copped a 30% loss.
