I'm probably who you're looking for. But I didn't make the rush this week when the rest of the city went bananas, I went about a month ago, before there were any cases in Texas, because I knew the herd would stampede once it got here.

I used this video as a guide to build a month's worth of food for my family to have on hand if we have to quarantine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSgotSS222c&t=2s

I've always been a planner; I was an infantry and armor officer in the Army, so I've been able to see what logistics looks like during crisis times, and disaster planning has always appealed to me. During Harvey, when the outfit I work for now were told we were going to 12 hour shifts indefinatley, I got made fun of because of the gear and food I packed for myself, but three days into sleeping on cots and eating MRE's, people were asking me all dammed day for my shit because I was living high on the hog.

With this current pandemic shit, if the healthcare system gets overloaded like so many say it will, it will have secondary and tertiary effects of impacting several other essential systems, and shit will really hit the fan in ways we haven't predicted yet. When whole shifts of police officers get sent home to quarantine because someone on their station shift got diagnosed, there's a very finite number of people they can move around to fill the manpower shortages. There will probably be a decree of police not responding to calls for service unless someone is actively getting assaulted. It's going to get worse before it gets better, so I'd rather have enough of everything on hand to lock the door and stay inside for a month if it comes to it.
