Well someone had to bring it up... LOL
The only reason I'm thinking this could be more serious than normal is because it seems the news is giving it little coverage relative to things like the impeachment proceedings. At least as of yesterday. We all know normally the news, if it can still be called that, likes to sell hype and exaggeration to get ratings. But it seems to me, again at least through last evening, that it wasn't nearly being given enough attention.
I'd like to think it's something as altruistic as not wanting to cause a public panic, but come on now.
Just for shits and giggles I went online last night looking for n95 masks. While you can still find them, I will say a lot of sources show them as being sold out or back ordered, and while I don't remember the pricing I got when I had purchased a while back, they seem to be a lot more expensive than I remember.
While I have no plans to go into any kind of panic mode here, I do plan to limit my exposure to large groups of people (who am I kidding, I do that most of the time anyway! Haha) and have upped the dose of Sambucol, which I take during the winter as a preventative measure during flu season anyway.
what's the group's thoughts?
