POLL #4 > CORONAVIRUS / COVID-19 SNAPSHOT : ENDS FRI MAR 20th (1 Viewer)

[[icon]]

It's been about a week... time for the FOURTH in a series of quick snapshots to capture the mindset of FBGs, how you all might be preparing (or not), and how severe you feel this will be (Or not).

No "self-quarantine" option under preparation?

I think April is still the right "feel the brunt" but can easily see peak of issue stretching into May. Hopefully we'll be back to some degree of normalcy by mid-summer, but the impacts will be felt through the year (economy, kids might need catch-up schooling due to disruption, etc.).

unpopular opinion:  Much "normalcy" returns end of March/First week of April

I don' think my answers have changed.

You’re not usually able to change your answers after voting

4. What have you done to prepare for COVID-19 (Select all that apply)?

Really didn't find any that applied.  No option for stocking up on TP so I included that under sanitary.  The first three options were off the table since the OP included water which is totally unnecessary.  No option for extra liquor on hand.  Basically nothing I've done is covered on the list.

I'm the same. I bought a couple extra packages of pasta and cans of beans and lentils "just in case" and I'm sure I could stretch 2+ weeks out of my pantry and freezer but that's true any day of the year. Hell there's probably a month in there, benefits of a mostly vegetarian lifestyle, maybe. No bottled water, no issues with TP. Grocery stores are open and are going to be open. Supply chains are going to be impacted to an extent but stock in grocery shelves is already better now than it was a week ago at this time.

I picked up supper tonight from a local restaurant we like, to support it. I ordered beer from a local brewery to support it. There's nothing I need that I can't get from the local grocery store (including online/store pickup if I want to maintain social distance).

Is CDC really recommending stock up on water?

 

[Snorkelson]

I answered April because that’s the most immediate time things will get worse. I’m worried about may-June too, as it will continue to spread.

Beer and ice cream yesterday - wife gave me her "what was I ever thinking look".
