The Coronavirus Prep/Sweat Thread Part Omicron: Winter is coming AGAIN.
I'm taking the coronavirus seriously enough to take steps to prepare and am curious if I'm over-reacting or if I'm on Team Smart. Things I've done so far:
Stocking up on canned goods. In particular large cans of Chef Boyardee ravioli ( an old college favorite), baked beans, soups and canned vegetables. I will start buying water and toilet paper (it'll be worth a fortune in trade) this week. I think that I'm prepared for two weeks if the worst happens. The really worst is if it turns people into zombies but, otoh, what a hoot that would be.
I'm concerned that I don't have enough weaponry. I might be the only person in Arizona that doesn't own a gun. What I do have is 5 large kitchen knives and 2 regular claw hammers and 1 5 lb. sledge. Problem is is that these are close up weapons so I might actually get a shotgun if the news turns really bad.
I know that I am likely taking this too far but maybe not. Is anyone else prepping and, if so, how?
