The stakes are the same everywhere. Except maybe in the countries that were able to use testing to slow the spread.
I can respect that you actually took a membership in the party.
Back to the subject, what are you seeing in Nova Scotia? We just tried to order some Buckley’s Cold and Sinus off the net, and cannot find it anywhere. We are well prepared here, just looking at the long haul. We are always prepared though, didn’t do much out of the ordinary for groceries, etc. Prepared to plant a few acres in garden if need be. I know others are going to need it. Studying up on herbal meds, China’s numbers included 80% of the cases were treated with herbal medication along with whatever else was available. We even smudge the house with sage and bay leaves now.
I never realised this until a couple days ago but my grandmother survived the 1918 pandemic and lived in such fear of pandemic after that she kept these habits until the end of her life. Smudging the house, keeping a mint in the mouth when outside, warm drink when you come in, always jacket and hat in the spring, good soup for lunch, gargle with salt, etc. Everybody thought she was nuts of course. Until now.
I know lots of front line workers (I’m on standby) and the virus is definitely here and spreading.
