Good afternoon all,

Per ...

 

My complete agreement, TMT.

 

Good morning Lonewolf,

So true.

Plus, it's not really a few neighbors with garden rakes wearing rubber boots (Wellingtons).

The dead must be buried and those doing this task must be disinfected.

Flooded areas are usually infected areas.

Foods in refrigerators must be disposed of - more digging ? more burning ? Probably not.

 

Good morning Lone Wolf,

I just went over to our MSF CP tent. On the clipboard below the last entry "horse shoe nails - to save kingdom", I added to list:

"backhoes, fuel".

We're not set up for all this.

 

ROFL !

Lone Wolf, my sides are splitting !

I am self-sufficient less the insect-borne infectious diseases and related.

My place is loaded with field emergency repair kits - but once the mosquitoes tour the dead animals and humans - it's just about all over, with 11 aircraft carriers or 22.

We're not set up even though the place is far from being an impoverished land.

 

Good morning Lonewolf,

Horseshoe nails to wood screws for repair are good items coupled to the good efforts to prepare.

Who here doesn't have all sorts of emergency kits for all sorts of emergencies ?!

Epidemics and the all-encompassing pandemics will get us all well prior to running out of drinking water from our RO system.
Think : mosquitoes.

 

Good morning LW,

Yes, the cities will become test tubes of deadly diseases.

Here in the country we also have the animal/ livestock problem. If the animals are not attended to and die, it's an approximation to a pool of stagnant water.

This matter is currently being addressed in Virginia but probably will take ages to have a program in place.
