Our local tech college has decided not to close despite all the local school districts closing. I don’t know what people with kids who will now be home are supposed to do. Things are already so tense at work that people are getting squirrely.

West Texas - All HEB Grocery stores in our area have changed their hours to open 8am - 8pm daily, in order to have time to try and restock the bare shelves. So far their trucks are still running daily......moo

Publix markets here in Florida are doing the same.

I'm concerned I don't have enough, lol. (But not in a panic. I will figure it out if we run out. We're fine.)

This!! Humans lived for centuries before toilet paper. Honestly, it’s NOT a necessity (without going into too much graphic detail). I’m much more concerned with having enough pet food. My fur babies have to eat properly.

It appears that a Massachusetts coronavirus cluster with at least 82 cases was started by people who were not yet showing symptoms, and more than half a dozen studies have shown that people without symptoms are causing substantial amounts of infection

Grainger still has toilet paper.
Huge rolls!
For mopping, try a terry cloth washcloth with water and cleaner maybe?

A friend gave us all a house plant last week, to keep our air clean at home. It was a great idea, never thought about my home air.

Don't forget to open your windows for at least 10 minutes each morning, even if it's cold out. Let some fresh air in. And yes, place air cleaning plants all over the house. Pothos, English Ivy, Areca Palms, Snake plants are great at cleaning the air and removing toxins, and super easy to grow.

Wouldn't be lovely if scientists can develop a plant that zaps coronavirus!

Yes! We've opened all the windows it's great to have the breeze through the rooms. Highly recommend, where weather is possible. (Even if it's cold, do it for a little bit, imo.)

Feels clean, refreshes the air, boosts the mood, IMO.

dried beans and lentils
laundry detergent
canned or frozen veggies
veggie seeds
waxed gouda cheese
salt
popcorn

It is getting bad here in my neck of the woods.
A young mother has been transferred from Rome to Emory hospital, they are afraid she may not live long enough to make it there.
I personally know 2 people who are at home extremely ill, deep dry cough, feel like they are suffocating and temps as high as 103.7.
They are my son's friend and his mother.
They both attended Liberty Square Church on March 1st.
When they called the hospital they were told of they weren't sick enough for the ICU, the would be taken to the basement for transport to a place of isolation to get tested and quarantined there. They were told if they they chose not.to seek treatment they have to stay on isolation in their home until March the 25th unless their condition worsened.
That's scary!!
The numbers from that Church continue to grow.

Coronavirus and the NBA: Child tests positive for COVID-19 after getting autographs at Jazz vs. Celtics game
Police in in Westerley, Rhode Island announced Friday that one of the two children in the town who had been recently diagnosed with coronavirus got an autograph from an NBA player on March 6. The autograph reportedly happened when the Utah Jazz visited the Boston Celtics.

if this ^^^ is not enough to make people realize how little contact they need to have with an infected person or item, idk what is. This makes me cringe & convinces me touching any item outside my home is a potential risk.
(It is MOO the autograph/contact to be the culprit)

Wow...
