    @biggeemac I posted this before, but this was before a lot of people were considering prepping. I grew up Mormon, they have fantastic food storage centers much cheaper than almost anywhere on most things, don’t buy the honey, Costco is much cheaper. price list is on this link...

    The Opportunists Stock Buying Thread

    The market is hemorrhaging, one mans loss will be another persons gain. I went 85% to cash a year ago, the market just felt too hot and I don’t like trying to pretend I can time the top. It’s impossible to predict but the market could drop considerably further than it has. So the question...

    One of the things I believe is happening, is social proof ping pong, and this cycle may be heard to break. China started the process, they got the juju and went into full lock down. No one really knows how to respond to this, so what we are doing is copying the most extreme elements of...

    For sure. We will be coming to Dublin sometime in the future. American Airlines being the most terrible airline we ever fly, and we fly almost every week, wouldn’t refund our money. Their solution is that we can rebook the exact trip to Dublin in the future using the same class of fare, they...

    I literally was scheduled to come to Dublin tomorrow. We called it off yesterday because of the risk of getting trapped overseas. It was a bummer big time.

    It’s amazing how even different hospitals are taking it more seriously than others. The hospital here in Reno is doing a bang up job of pre-emptively planning. They are limiting family from visiting, and installed a tent outside the ER to presceen people before the ever enter so they know if...

    Assume that was meant for me. Jackie works at Mayo Clinic, and patients and benefactors from all over the worlds are constantly coming through. I interact with lots of people from all over the world on a regular basis. We don’t know specifically of any at risk contact, but our normal social...

    that’s very interesting, and makes me wonder if Jackie and I actually contracted CV late Jan beginning of February. Jackie got sick first, her throat was so sore she lost her voice completely for 4 days. She was completely wiped out for 3 weeks and had to take time off of work. I had a work...

    One way or another there will be consensus that forms over time. It is good for there to be some difference of opinion. It keeps the debate open, and in all honesty there is a whole lot unknown at this time. I have one viewpoint, I still like to have discussions with people that see this...

    Unless god forbid someone famous dies. People probably don’t see Tom hanks as that old. It’s abstract to people, someone like this dies and it becomes super personal super fast. One very public example and the shit could really hit the fan.

    He is the president though. There are some very extreme measures they could take to save his life that would normally not be used. ECMO is basically a lung bypass machine if your lungs fail, they usually use this with premie newborns, but they do have adult size machines. I’m sure the most...

    I prefer your version of things and pray your right. The real question isn’t just when it ends but the damage it leaves in its wakE and what the path to recovery is. Also I prefer not to use China as any barometer for this. I don’t trust a single number coming out of there.

    Something very strange is going on in Italy. Either there is a more deadly strain most prevalent in Italy, or there is some genetic predisposition in Italians that makes the disease much more severe among their people. I’m basing this off comparing SK and Italy. SK has been very religious...

    Not sure if anyone else picked it up today. But the CDC today admitted that they have been doing postmortem testing on some people who officially died of the flu, and have discovered they had CV. This means this has been circulating deeper and longer than anyone knew before and the US death...

    The question that comes to my mind is did the actual rate decrease ever or is it simply attributable to sampling bias and sampling error. Each day SK tests a small subset of the population, it is not a sampling of the entire population. Any decrease day to day simply means that the subset...
