Buckle up, this isn't a drill.

This started out pretty slow when it was cooking in china since early December, and it quickly spread from one country to another. The past two months has been quite interesting.

• Nearly half of the people I see out there are wearing masks now. Its the new normal.

• It was absolutely nuts in china. Their government is doing everything possible to cover it up.

• Hospitals/concentration camps were constructed, crematoriums working round the clock, breakdown of civil society, people trying to infect others, anger and actual defiance against their tyrannical government, and so much more.

• And then the virus started showing up in Japan and Korea, in record time their infections skyrocketed to over nine thousand.

• Iran and Italy has hundreds of cases, and the numbers are rising. 

• Several cities in the USA has declared a state of emergency but their president is strangely unfazed. The left has also politicized the emergency. This is the same group who wants to open borders and give free healthcare to illegal immigrants. They might be the real zombies...

• Americans have been hoarding TP. Beavis is not pleased. 

• China Uncensored hit a million subscribers last month despite YouTube's demonitization of their videos critical of the chinese government. Chris Chappell: Drinks are on me if you're in town. 
• The virus has also made it to Greenland. If you've been playing Plague Inc. for as long as I have...

My own country has declared a sub level 1 Code Red meaning the first case of person to person infection has happened locally. We have 20 confirmed cases and more than twice that being monitored by the government. I trust the skills of our medical professionals, its the policy governing them that I am doubtful of.

With nearly a million illegal chinese workers staying here I find it highly improbable that official numbers are not higher.

And just 15 minutes ago I read that the World Health Organization has finally declares the Corona Virus a Global Epidemic.

School have been canceled for the time being. That's good, better to overreact than to regret it later.

Panic buying has started right about yesterday. Isopropyl alcohol at the Mercury Drugstores I visited were mostly depleted. There were people at the groceries throughout most of the day as well. You could tell that people are getting spooked. Lazada has been out of N95 masks for weeks now. I was able to get some prior to this mess right after Taal Volcano blew its top, and now stocks are gone.

Our supplies at home are still good. More than two months of food and drinking water are on standby and we're quietly getting more.

That's the vibe right now. Its 3:37 AM. I hope you're safe and healthy. Try to minimize being around large crowds if you could help it. Wash your hands and don't touch your face. Boost your immune system and don't fall for scare tactics because to paraphrase Frank Herbert: fear is the brain-killer!




Stay vigilant!
