Yeah I’m not excited about the Covid spraying situation that’s likely to start happening, but as we talked about “back then”, “lesser of the two evils”. It has to happen I suppose. (R..grrrr)

@JerseyGirl do you remember that spraying video you posted back in the day?

I believe you said “more spraying”

Lemme see if i can find it, I marked some spraying guns images for reference too

Eta hands r numb

There’s so much important information and reference in the early threads (hand r numb can’t type)

Study study bc it’s coming our way. Never mind it has arrived

:spaceship:
(That was a cool old emoji too @dixiegirl1035)

Anyway yeah I’m a treehugger anti chemical kind of person. Not looking fwd to the onslaught of chemical fumes coming r way but hey lesser of the two evils, doesn’t matter if you’re in lockdown I suppose.

How is this supposed to help, when it inflames respiratory problems?

The virus is inside human beings. They are the host. It's not hanging out on fields, ponds or rooftops or roadways.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic: Eligible Emergency Protective Measures

FACT SHEET
Consistent with the President’s national emergency declaration for the coronavirus (COVID-
19) pandemic on March 13, 2020, FEMA urges officials to, without delay, take appropriate actions that are necessary to protect public health and safety pursuant to public health guidance and conditions and capabilities in their jurisdictions. FEMA provides the following guidance on the types of emergency protective measures that may be eligible under FEMA’s Public Assistance Program in accordance with the COVID-19 Emergency Declaration in order to ensure that resource constraints do not inhibit efforts to respond to this unprecedented disaster.

FEMA Public Assistance Program

In accordance with section 502 of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121-5207 (the “Stafford Act”), eligible emergency protective measures taken to respond to the COVID-19 emergency at the direction or guidance of public health officials may be reimbursed under Category B of FEMA’s Public Assistance program. FEMA will not duplicate assistance provided by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), to include the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), or other federal agencies.

State, territorial, tribal, and local government entities and certain private non-profit organizations are eligible to apply for Public Assistance. FEMA assistance will be provided at a 75 percent federal cost share. This assistance will require execution of a FEMA-State/Tribal/Territory Agreement, as appropriate, and execution of an applicable emergency plan. Local governments and other eligible PA applicants will apply through their respective state, tribal or territorial jurisdictions.

Eligible Assistance
Under the COVID-19 Emergency Declaration described above, FEMA may provide assistance for emergency protective measures including, but not limited to, the following, if not funded by the HHS/CDC or other federal agency. While some activities listed may be eligible for funding through HHS/CDC, final reimbursement determinations will be coordinated by HHS and FEMA.

• Medical sheltering (e.g. when existing facilities are reasonably forecasted to become overloaded in the near future and cannot accommodate needs)
  • All sheltering must be conducted in accordance with standards and/or guidance approved by HHS/CDC and must be implemented in a manner that incorporates social distancing measures
  • Non‐congregate medical sheltering is subject to prior approval by FEMA and is limited to that which is reasonable and necessary to address the public health needs of the event, is pursuant to the direction of appropriate public health officials and does not extend beyond the duration of the Public Health Emergency
• Household pet sheltering and containment actions related to household pets in accordance with CDC guidelines
•  Purchase and distribution of food, water, ice, medicine, and other consumable supplies, to include personal protective equipment and hazardous material suits Movement of supplies and persons

Thanks for the friendship and info here. It has helped a lot.

Day 6 inside and doing okay. Have to go visit my car in underground parking tomorrow and get my mail. This rainy, colder weather works best for my self-isolation. I'm more worried about beautiful weather making us all want to get out and do fun things like travel.
It's weird, right now, gasoline is dirt cheap and toilet paper suddenly is on everyone minds.

No, I don't believe it. This is not the first day for the rest of our lives.

I know what you mean. Tomorrow it's suppose to be 85 degrees and sunny.

I might be utilizing mismatched socks.. I knew I saved them for a reason....
However.. the warehouse that i work at had 6 emergency full semi deliveries today of toilet paper so we could ship to the 152 stores we supply...so hopefully soon.

Music to my ears!!!!!!!!!!!
