No kidding. My SO went Target last night to get my go to Pedialyte, which is what I exclusively drink when I'm sick. They sent me a picture of the aisle where the Lysol and cleaning products were kept. It was pretty much empty. That's nuts.

And while I live in a state that's only had one confirmed case, it does make me think about how many cases are unrecorded. How many are just mild cases that people will simply sleep off and not report. Hell, the CDC even states to not bother going to an ER unless you've got legit pneumonia symptoms.

Also, don't buy masks. They're not going to work. And you're taking them away from hospitals who actually needs. Wild that we're having a mask shortage, but people are losing their minds. Plenty of people die by the normal flu every year, but that's something most don't think about. But when we give it a new name and produce mortality numbers, people start freaking out.

Now, I'm not saying I have the coronavirus, I don't actually know since the symptoms are almost exactly the same as any other variation of flu virus, but considering the work I do, I also wouldn't be shocked if I did.
