"One ought never to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half." Winston Churchill
Quote II
Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person; having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but to pour them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, knowing that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then, with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away. - George Eliot
Quote III
“I too have concerns for the safety of our children and all citizens, but I don’t believe more restrictive gun control laws will resolve the problems of escalating gun violence in our society,” Minnesota Sheriff Joel Brott
Love thy neighbor as thyself. But Lord, it is getting harder and harder to do.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) at the weekend retweeted a post on Twitter which said in part “F**k a National day of prayer,” in relation to President Trump’s call for Americans of all faiths to pray for all those affected by the coronavirus outbreak. Late Saturday, anti-gun activist David Hogg posted a tweet, saying, “Don’t let this administration address COVID-19 like our national gun violence epidemic. F**k a National day of prayer, we need immediate comprehensive action.”
Talk about being sad. The saddest looking workout. Maybe ever.
See, I can be a humanitarian. Quite the 'Love Story'
A husband separated from his wife on their anniversary due to a coronavirus quarantine stood outside the window of her nursing home with a sign that reads, “I’ve loved you 67 years and still do.” The Connecticut husband, Bob Shellard, would visit his wife every day in her nursing home before Democratic Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont banned visitors from entering nursing homes for 30 days due to the coronavirus pandemic, according to NBC Connecticut. So on the couples’ 67th wedding anniversary on Saturday, Shellard stood outside his wife Nancy’s window holding a sign that said “I’ve loved you 67 years and still do. Happy Anniversary.”
Why you can't believe illness statistics right now.
There are four data that the public is interested in for epidemics: Exposure %, mild illness %, truly ill %, and dead %. But % of what? Journalists have no clue about this.
Exposure can be tested, whether ill or not. However, very few people will be tested for exposure if they feel fine or have the sniffles, and it would be absurd (except for a limited study of the general population) to randomly test people. I'd be interested in those results but it's academic.
One epidemiologist said yesterday that the majority of people in the NYC metro area (NY, NJ, CT) and in MA have been exposed. A guess, though. Exposed but not ill is good. You get herd immunity. It is happening now, for sure. Probably in CA too. Most viral spread is probably by people without symptoms who assume they are clear.
My point is that, without a number for people exposed and unexposed within a given general population, you have no denominators. If the only data you have is dead people (not many thus far) divided by sick people getting tested, you have minimally-useful information from a public health standpoint. From a doctor's standpoint, it's useful to know risk of sick to dead even though there is no treatment, other than supportive, for viral pneumonia.
So what is a "death rate" based on in the absence of relevant data, ie deaths/exposed? So the danger of this virus, right now, can not be determined or even estimated. That might be knowable in a few months.
I am not an ID doc, so I'll just tell you what I am doing. I am hoarding nothing. I am taking walks or hikes daily in the sunshine. I wash my hands, but I always did. I am going to the gym and working out (improves immune response). I am not going to church (because it's closed at the moment.) Small meals are my normal anyway (improves immune response and generally healthier).
No, this isn't from the Babylon Bee or the Weekly World News, Isis issues coronavirus travel advice: terrorists should avoid Europe

The constitution is dead” was the last tweet ever sent by 21-year-old Duncan Socrates Lemp. On Thursday morning at 4:30 a.m., a Montgomery County SWAT team killed Lemp during a violent attack on his family’s home in the affluent Washington suburb of Potomac, Maryland. Why did the SWAT team attack the home as Lemp was sleeping? The initial county police press release referred only to “firearms offenses.” County police spokeswoman Mary Davison refused to disclose either the details of Lemp’s alleged offense or the affidavit used to justify the raid. Instead, she notified me that my press inquiries were being handled under the Maryland Public Information Act which entitles government agencies to delay responding for weeks or months. Even the search warrant used to justify the raid is reportedly sealed for 30 days. This Blue Wall of Silence is doing nothing to slow the cascade of allegations on social media that Lemp was murdered. According to Rene Sandler, a former prosecutor who is representing the Lemp family, Montgome

We’ve all read reports of the long lines in grocery stores following the declaration of a national emergency with most Americans coming to the realization that the coronavirus is very real and isn’t going away any time soon. We’ve also noted the run on ammunition and reports from around the country of increased sales of guns. Yesterday, however, was the first day most Americans were off of work in large numbers since the emergency declaration and a great number of them made tracks for their nearest firearms retailer.
A Flagler County man has been arrested after deputies say he was caught red-handed stealing groceries Friday night, then later pretended to be a federal officer. The Flagler County Sheriff’s Office responded to a shoplifting incident at the Publix at 4950 Belle Terre Parkway at 7 p.m. They came into contact with a man who was later identified as Leroy Stotelmyer, 60, who was caught trying to exit the store with two boxes of potatoes and a grouper fillet.

An 18-year-old pizzeria worker was praised for going above and beyond the call of duty after he broke the restaurant’s take-out rule to deliver a pizza to a family’s home three and a half hours away. Julie and Rich Morgan had been reminiscing about the legendary pies that are served up at Steve’s Pizza place in Battle Creek, Michigan. It had been 25 years since the couple lived in the city, but despite the distance, the fabled restaurant still set the bar for the perfect slice of pizza.

Yes, this in unprecedented, and I really hopesomeone, or many someones are doing a compare and contrast the differences in the media coverage this on vs. the H1N1 when Barky McFuckstain was wandering around the White House.
I am not discounting the threat by the actual virus. I have elderly parents and two sisters in the medical field, one of whom lives with them. Also a sister with serious auto-immune problems who recently got a heart valve replacement and is now gearing up for a kidney transplant.
So I do not poo-poo the virus. But the media onslaught coupled with the gubmint's heavy-handed over-response is genuinely terrifying.
It's fucking infuriating.
I am even more vigilant than my normal level of hyper-vigilance.

Trump seemed a bit dour today. No idea what he's been told but his comments about no more than 10 people and this could wash through by July or August certainly gives the impression that he's being told this is going to be much worse. Who knows. I hope to God by the end of the month the numbers are so low that this shit ends

Look up the Harden-Eulenberg Affair; it led to accusations that Wilhelm II was surrounded by a coterie of gay men-- including one who danced in a pink tutu in front of the Kaiser at a dinner following a hunting party. Bismarck thought that Wilhelm's relationship with Eulenburg was more than a little iffy.

I canceled my planned purchase of something I didn't really need, just a few dollars. If we survive this corona shut-down I'm going to go back to reducing my shopping to necessities like before I had kids and only quality goods, preferable not made in a third world sweat shop.

There is an uptick in viral infections, there is an uptick in death's, the virus burns itself out and it ends.
THE FUCKING FLU INFECTS ON AVERAGE 59 MILLION AMERICANS EVERY FUCKING YEAR AND KILLS UPWARDS OF 18K.
We are destroying the economy over fewer than 100 deaths, literally nothing.
I've fucking lost, on paper, 250k of retirement 401k savings over this bullshit.
I am royally pissed off.

LOL. The boy started in on his litany of hatreds tonight, mostly against whites this time, and his mom's white-lovin' ways. But, the girl interrupted him, and came correct with it. I didn't even have to say a word, because she echoes me.
I'm not sure why she gets it and he doesn't, but there it is.
I just sat back with a whiskey and a cigarette on the porch, and listened to her schooling her older brother with extreme prejudice (through the window), and smiled.
He antecedes her by two years, but she sounds twice his age.

When we first heard about Wuhan, we normal people said we hoped we didn't sick from the chinese shit, and we hoped it stated out of our country.
When the Left first heard about Wuhan they said how can we use this to hurt President Trump and then they said let's get that Wuhan sickness here in the USA now.

They want the world to shut down because there is a model (science speak for "guess") that the world might be a little more clement 50 years from now; yet they think no big deal if they go out pub crawling, get sick and go home and kill grandpa.

metro area (NY, NJ, CT) and in MA have been exposed. A guess, though.
Exposed but not ill is good. You get herd immunity. It is happening now,
for sure. Probably in CA too. Most viral spread is probably by people
without symptoms who assume they are clear."
yes ... and the amount of inoculum is also important. A small does can mean a milder case. It gives the body time to fight starting with the first infection ... if that is a tiny amount, it might take several more doublings to get up to larger "viral dosing", and all that time the body is mounting a defense. (or that is how I understand it).
https://tinyurl.com/v8mlco8
So it may be that a lot of people have already gotten a mild does (as opposed to a milder strain, though I guess that is still possible). They may get a little sick, enough to spread little doses of more inoculum around, and more people pick up the milder dose.
In crowded places, that has been going on for a couple months, only now are we locking things down. But we don't know how much herd protection is already out there. And if people are being more careful, especially the elderly, then we may be near or even past peak death rate.
The thing is ... we don't know ... so extra safety MIGHT be warranted. The images from Italy indicate what can happen when 100,000 Chinese come back loaded up with inoculum and spread it for a month or two, with unsuspecting public. And a nursing home that gets invaded with massive dosing shows the potential danger. But casual small dosing in public may just have been building the herd ... main thing is to keep those spreaders away from the nursing home, or away from everyone.

According to the CDC, 59 million Americans got it, 265k were hospitalized and 12k died from it.
Over half a million people died world wide.
Literally nobody remembers this.
We didn't tank the stock market, we didn't tank the economy and there were no curfews.

Of course it has been here. The news in October was that the flu shot didn't seem to have hit the right strains because folks were getting the flu. It wasn't the flu. It was this virus. So of course the flu shot didn't touch it.
We live on the West Coast. Asian folks come and go all of the time, from mainland China and all over there. Nobody thinks anything of it.
But, now that the press and the proggies have determined they can blame Trump for this, it is suddenly worse than ebola. Fuckheads.

Prices seemed about what I remembered and there was no "will be a delay in shipping notice" I didn't need to order yet but with all the general frenzy I'm going back into king Putt reign mode and thinking I need to keep more of everything on hand. Especially since Chewy.com had a notice of possible delays in shipping when I changed my autoship to allow for unexpected new arrival.

Now the Bishop of the church where they've attended for over 40 years is saying ONLY FAMILY may attend the funeral service. And no one may approach the priest.
This is breaking all their hearts as this family is large with many cousins and branches that could make it to the funeral and they all would like to pay their respects.
I am being designated as family, as well as a few other close friends of the family.

Tucker was still being a girl - for some reason he is hooked on the doom, even gainsaying his own (fairly cautious) guests
but the various docs and experts on the later two shows were focused on the positives with quick development of vaccines and the chloro-quinine pill preventative, as well as that hospitals were well prepared now.
and i'm fine - I think a lot of people would be fine - with the 15 day hunker-down. but no longer. it's the uncertainty that is killing businesses (and people). if it's worse after 15 days people are going to WANT to hide from it, but it WILL take longer than that to completely burn out, but our country won't make it if we stay in limbo any longer than that. that duration is even a stretch for "will we make it".
but anyway I feel more positive.

The weird thing about this is it is actually fascinating- if it wasn't so retarded and tragic.
-we are seeing mass hysteria playing out on a large scale. How panic can seize a crowd and even people not panicking are forced, by their reaction to the panic of others, to operate as if they are panicking.
-that people operate not on observable data in our society, but rather what they are told by others. It really is amazing. There are not millions dead already- but everyone is acting as though there are.

The population of full time residents in the metro areas of Collier and the Bonita Beach, Estero, Bonita Springs, and up through Fort Myers Beach communities, is maybe 600,000, but the snowbird population atop that is about 1,200,000.
Some of that 1.2 million do a full six or seven months here, but most only come for January through Easter.
The beaches are gorgeous, the weather is perfect, but this, demographically, ain't no Sandals Resort kind of place. It's more a Depends crowd.
Many of the snowbirds are stuffed into small apartments and condos, content to live in beachy rabbit warrens because they spend most all day out and about.
And out and about means dining and drinking.
A tour around town yesterday evening showed almost all the restaurants and bars loaded with customers, and people waiting near the doors for seating in places that refuse to take reservations.
And there are many many bars and restaurants. Actually restaurants with bars. There are no actual taverns here.
There's been no edict from the governor, Ron DeSantis (very R) to close it all down, and I suspect he fears the economic exodus that would result.
Since so many of these snowbird oldsters call places up north home, and home means usually a more spacious and comfortable set of digs than your Marco Island third floor squat, you are likely to go home if all of a sudden all the Carabba's and Bonefish Grille and other joints close up.
Furthermore, these people all have their families, their adult kids and grandkids, all up in places from Maine to Minneapolis, and none of those families are gonna come down to visit gramps and grannie, if Tommy Bahamas is closed for the season.
It's gonna be a tough call to mandate closures down here. But I think it is going to happen soon.
There's a new feeling in the air. We've all got to get with the program.

Last Tuesday evening I had a 4-hour training class for election judges. During the first break the guy next to me got a text from his adult son, whom he had seen on Sunday, that the son had attended a party the week before and someone at the party had just that day (last Tuesday) tested positive for coronavirus. My classmate told the trainers and immediately moved to an unoccupied table, but after much discussion with the trainers, he left the class. The trainers called the Board of Elections to find out what to do, and it was decided that the class should be shut down and we should all go home. Some of the other attendees balked and asked what the point of that was since the guy had already left, so we finished the class.
Yesterday and today I've had a dry sore throat. It's so minor I wouldn't think anything of it under normal conditions, but these are not normal conditions. If indeed I have the coronavirus, then there is absolutely no way to avoid this thing, because you're contagious before you know you're sick.
Now I'm concerned about the elderly and immune-compromised individuals, but I don't see the point of crashing the economy for this. I can understand taking precautions like no visitors to nursing homes, but it seems to me that it's pretty much inevitable that the vast majority of the population will eventually contract COVID-19, and for most people it will be a minor illness.
It just seems to me that we are doing more damage by to individuals by crashing the entire US economy over this.

244 DeWine wants Ohio election postponed. Judge says no. After that, health director (the one who says 100,000 already have it in Ohio) orders polls closed due to health emergency, according to Columbus Dispatch. Where does she get her authority? Ohio House speaker issued a memo at 9:45 PM saying election will occur as scheduled. Wow, what a mess.

Since The Virus hangs on to hard surfaces for 7 days it will be necessary to preclean all inbound materials.
This will be made easier because I purchased cleaning materials in mid February.
Seriously, folks, a cursory examination of professional medical comment on the internet in early February should have let you know that things were going to get out of hand.

An appealing, but incorrect myth.
Pre WWII, Honda started out as a small shop as a manufacturer of high-quality Piston Rings. Built that up into a much larger shop.
American bombers wiped Honda out, and he sold what was salvageable to Toyota. Then, re-started his own company to research and eventually produce two-wheeled transportation for a war-ravaged country.
Post war, Honda produced their first true motorcycle in 1949, after having produced more of a "engine-scooter" in '48.
And IIRC, the Honda 600 made it's American debut here in 1970. I've ridden in one.
It is very small, very thin, very light and very slow. Pre-regulations mini-deathtrap; a Beetle was a Panzer Tank in comparison.
Finally, it must be noted: Honda's last project before he died, was the amazing first generation Acura NSX.
He was Japan's answer to Kelly Johnson, and we'd best all be grateful that he wasn't developing combat aircraft for Japan in WWII.
Might've presented us with a few more difficulties, there.

What the ever loving fuck is going on???"
I think they fear it is spreading via those that show no symptoms, maybe never show symptoms. So there is no way to avoid it or stop it. (except to isolate everyone).
I don't know about swine flu, but I think it was different, not as "stealthy". Corvid-19 also seems to send a higher percent to hospital (14%) or to ICU (5%) so without enough space, death rate goes way up.
BUT many factors indicate to me there is hope that we are not like Italy, maybe even better off than South Korea. We have the zinc treatment that seems to block the virus from taking over the cells, we might have been building herd immunity for months via mild doses in public spaces, we are isolating the most vulnerable as the others build herd immunity and recover ...
and warmer weather may reduce spread, there a few hot spots, public is mostly aware ... lots of hope, but we will get the two weeks where mayors and governor get to try out their Dictator hats, and we find out if the public shoots dictators -- maybe.

Day 4
I just found out, initially via an out-of-state e-mail, then confirmed on Drudge, that the SF Bay area is under some sort of "shelter in place" order, currently until 07 April (THREE weeks).
When I went to the grocery store earlier today, in addition to paper goods and ramen, pasta, bread, fresh meat, fresh vegetables, cheese, orange juice and maybe a couple of other things were completely out of stock. Packs of hotdogs & sausages were in short supply, as were microwaveable burritos, dairy and packs of bottled water. I think only wine and liquor were essentially untouched, and beer was short only a few cases.
I went back 30 minutes ago, and picked up a few things, so I'm good for at least 2 weeks. THere were still quite a few people; 3 open checkout lines, about 3 long. I talked to one of the stockers; they're expecting a shipment tomorrow. He doesn't know when. I'll go back before noon and check, and potentially again around 2:00, as a couple more packs of burritos.
This is starting to look like political opportunism. As mentioned up-thread, we've seen under 200 deaths, while the 2009 flu hit about 34,000. SFGate shows small businesses closing ... for how long? When will they re-open? Will they ever re-open?
Coupled with Gratuitous Nuisance's polices (before being elected Governor), and the inability to arrest criminals who steal less than $950 of stuff, I think very many SF liberals are starting to realize that they really didn't want these liberal policies, certainly not as "good and hard" as they're getting them (you'd think that in SF, everyone would have lube ... but no). Maybe someone else, even everyone else, not just only them.
With any luck, a bunch of CA D's will be de-elected in November.

That would take more than luck. Our county (San Mateo County) is under the "shelter in place" order. I intend to go to work as normal tomorrow. Wed. I'm driving down to San Diego for a couple of days to look for a place to rent, as we're moving in April/May. When I come back I'll be working as normal, as long as people still need their homes inspected. I did have one cancellation due to the C19 freakout.
Filled up the cars because that'll be the next insane panic shortage. I think we're good on supplies for a couple of weeks, I hope.

Store instituted the 11pm closing last night. This morning at 6am there was at least 50 people waiting for the store to open. Once open they started to denude the shelves of all sundry food items.
When I clocked out what I could see:
1. Frozen dinners looked 99% gone, only a few stragglers.
2. Milk was about 95% gone and what was left was clustered in two sections.
3. Cereal aisle was pretty clean.
4. About the only red pasta sauce left was organic.
5. Very few cans of beans left. Same with tomatoes, carrots, corn, and mushrooms.
6. Meat wall was still pretty bare.
7. One 4ft section that had things like meat substitute items was still full.
8. And not a can of tuna fish to be found.
So pretty much Ark B all the way down.

Being a Chain Drive, I'm pretty sure that'd have been the smaller 354cc engine, which was never officially imported into the U.S. market.
Interesting point though, by time the '600 made it's official import debut, Honda Motorcycles were rapidly becoming known and appreciated for a notably higher level of quality than their other Japanese competitors.
Fortunately, for the motorcycle market, companies like Kawasaki, Suzuki and Yamaha quickly adopted the Deming process of Statistical Quality Control, and regained quality manufacturing parity with Honda in under a decade.
But by then, Honda had made it's bones.
And with the devastatingly effective "You Meet The Nicest People On A Honda" ad campaign, they never looked back.
You want to see some impressive paint work on a motorcycle? Look at a mint condition, original, non restored 1971 Honda CB-175. Two tone gas tank, doesn't matter what color.
That whole era of Honda motorcycle paintwork, well I'll put it this way.
The inspectors at Rolls Royce would've approved.

Today, after the shelter in place was announced, I got an email stating the SF, Silicon Valley, and East Bay office would be closed, and all employees had to work remote.
For those interested in what the shelter in place order dictates you can and cannot do, here it is:
What can't I do?
You cannot engage in group activities in person with others.
You cannot have dinner parties. You cannot invite friends over to your home to hang out.
You cannot go to bars or nightclubs.
You cannot go to a nail salon or get your hair cut by a stylist or barber.
You cannot go shopping for non-essential goods.
You cannot take unnecessary trips on public transport or in your car or motorbike.

I have a somewhat newer Honda 175 scrambler. Traded a '72 CB 350 for it.
Just got back from dinner at a bar in East Mesa. Bartender tells me, that so far the word from the AZ governor is that bars and restaurants are free to choose whether to remain open, or run reduced hours, or limit capacity. Had a nice French Dip sammich, and played the trivia game, which was scanty on players tonight.

Scrambler version? Upswept, shielded pipes, high mounted front fender, and cross-braced handlebars?
Neighbor had one in the Orange and White livery.
Paint on that tank was so bright and deep, it was damn near luminescent.

Those are impure thoughts, Comrade. To the single cell rehabilitation camps for you.
But it is scary how the vast majority are good with the government overreach. If you dare bring up the H1N1 virus or even the Swine Flu, citing the infected rates and deaths from them, and the lack of panic to those compared to the much lower numbers for the BeerVirus, you are not taking this shit seriously.
It's still amazes me how coverage of a flu is vastly different when a Republican is president. Like how the lack of diversity is the most pressing issue with the current government's response team. It's almost as if no one is serious about this except for creating 'hair on fire' panic.

GB-500 (or 550, I forget)
I know it well though. Was at the salesman's desk, with the sales manager at hand, and had worked it down to $2,300 out the door, with under 500 miles on the clock.
AMEX with no limit, awaited.
But I had a nagging feeling, and sure enough, less than three months later, it was time to deploy the Golden Parachute to descend from the Stratosphere of my Fortune 1000 ride.
That's the finest motorcycle I'd never bought.
And I'm highly jealous that you owned one, for a while.

Did get a nice muskrat fur hat at GUM's analogue in Leningrad, Gostiniy Dvor. $40? But I had a wad of rubles, having just sold some blue jeans for $150 or so.
Thing is warm. Have been outdoors in Canada or New England, winter, put it on, it's almost like going inside. Not entirely a mystery why they use them. The hard currency stores had beautiful silver fox fur hats, expensive.

After seeing how easily the intel/ law enforcement/ legal apparatus could be used to try to take down a presidency, it stands to reason that next step would be economic warfare. And this latest tactic hits much closer to home.

No one ever told us to 'prepare to hunker down' when the Swine Flu, H1N1 or Ebola, hit.
However, taking care of the most vulnerable is always the correct move. Due to my congestive heart failure, I wouldn't go to hospitals to visit people before all this hysteria because of all the germs present in there, and not just the patients but the visitors. Now, unless absolutely necessary (like my ICD giving me shocks), I avoid hospitals like the plague. If I can't see a doctor early in the morning, before all the parents with sick kids get there, I don't go to them, either.

Don't think Ebola ever "hit" the US, as in was present across the country and expanding (was it present, at all, ever, apart from some patients recklessly repatriated here?). I think this bug is genetically distinctive, different than the other two you mention, new, and thus *potentially* a much different, and bigger, deal.
But that's probably just dull facts serving as handmaidens to dark unseen evil forces, or something, so I denounce myself in advance.

Here in the Charleston SC area, restaurants are laying off servers and only offering take out. A family member was just laid off.
And the DAR school in the upstate is closing down, so another family member will also lose their job.
We just got a letter from our office that we can go home with no repurcussions if we don't "feel safe." But of course, we're going to wait until corporate HQ of the company we do work for, makes their decision on that. Me personally, I don't have any PTO accrued so I need to work.
This is going to be one fu@ked up spring for a lot of people. Schools are closed, as are daycare centers. What are parents going to do who don't have a family member who can watch their kids for them?

Noticed heater fan was running but temp was dropping. Found that heater was "short cycling". Flame would come on and immediately go out again.
Couple of searches later and figured it's my flame sensor. Cleaned it off with a dollar bill (my life savings) and it's working again. Ordered new one from Amazon with a side of COVID19 thrown in for free.
What could have been a very expensive repair bill turned into a $12 mail order part.

This is going to be a very painful time.

I have a thought argument, for anyone in the mood -- Okay, they shamed this Purell hoarder/profiteer into donating all his goods, and they are still considering criminal charges against the guy.
Apparently, he watches for trends where an item becomes sought, and buys in heavily, and sells for whatever markup he can get for it.
Free enterprise at work. In this case, however, there are public health considerations. That's the wrinkle.
If he was trying to corner the Beanie Baby market, or the silver market (*waves at the deceased Hunt brothers*), is that a crime?
Imho, it's not. But I am a bit more ambivalent on items somewhat critical to public health.
PS -- TP is NOT a public health issue. There are many options.

When demand increases, so will price. One of the fundamentals of economics. When idiots getting to hoarding stuff, they're gonna bid the price up to the Moon.
For luxuries, let 'em. For necessities, it's another story.
Note there are two components to the increased demand. A real increase in demand due to whatever is causing the panic. In this case, think medical supplies and related.
That demand is real, and the corresponding increase in price is something you have to live with.
Price controls will just cause shortages.
Now the other component of demand is the stupid one. This is idiots panic buying shit they don't need and much more of stuff they do need.
The price increase due to this is just stupid. In emergencies, this needs to be nipped in the bud. And rationing, in the form of "limit N per customer" is the way to handle it.
This is what businesses will naturally start doing. I noticed one of the grocery stores is doing this in a clever way. They aren't putting TP on the shelves, but keeping it in the back. If you want some, you ask, and they bring it out to you. And they limit it.
This way, they eliminate people having the chance to strip the shelves.

In emergencies, force should be used to enforce rationing if necessary.
Now, about "price gouging" per say. That exists. It's not the natural supply/demand changes in price, but something like this.
Years ago, when my mother was a rural mail carrier, we need a part for her vehicle, a distributor. Whole thing. Wasn't one to be found locally, and it would take a few days to get one out here. So, some guys looked around for us, and found a junkyard that had one.
We went over to it (over 30 miles away). Guy charged $60 bucks for it. New one would've been over $100.
After we got it, my father said something glad you had this, we couldn't find one anywhere. The guy said, well hell, if I'd known you needed it that buy, I would've charge you $150 for it.
He was serious, and an asshole.
The market normally takes care of assholes like that. Competition. However, in emergencies, assholes like that will show their colors.
In that case, well, shoot them in head if they do that with needed stuff. Imagine someone doing that with life saving drugs or medical equipment.

And the answer is..."I Am Curious (Yellow)" and "I Am Curious (Blue)," which are actually two halves of the same film, released separately. It's a totally pretentious Swedish movie from the late '60s about a communist/far-left girl who wanders around Sweden doing stupid communist things while having pointless sexual experimentations.
It was very famous in the hippie era as a "racy" nudie movie you could watch while still claiming that it was a legitimate intellectual film.
And of course Ace often makes "I Am Curious..." puns and jokes.

WHOA, I was totally thinking of I Am Curious, but I thought that was porn. Early porn, that is, which is to say it might be R-rated now. I've never seen it.
Posted by: Blonde Morticia
Well, it was released before the "X/R/PG" system was invented, so it technically doesn't count as X-rated.
By modern standards, it's really not any more porny than something like Game of Thrones. But back in 1968, that level of explicitness was considered mind-boggling.
Also, it's kind of a semi-documentary -- the lead actress was the director's girlfriend and she really was a communist and really did the things shown in the film (staging protests, etc.) and the sexual scenes in the movie I think weren't entirely simulated -- so it seemed more "real" than a normal porn film.
These days, it would probably get an "R" rating, though, since standard have changed.
The movie itself is incredibly boring and insulting, aside from the racy parts.

But for those of you who wish to know, let me summarize. We're in this mess not because the left has gone far left. No no no, it's because the right has gone far right. Everything Trump has done is wrong and stupid, especially tax cuts. Everything Obama did was brilliant. The Fed only started becoming a problem when Trump took over.

I'd like to see him use this as leverage to extract several pounds of flesh from those guys and use their patron to do it. China is their patron.
China foisted this on the world and then lied about it and tried to cover it up. When we called them on it, they threatened to withhold medicine to combat it. They spy on us, steal our IP and are a major source for fentanyl and other drugs. They are arguably, a significant source, if not one of the most consequential sources of money for the alliance.
So if I were going to hurt the alliance, I'd cancel China's MFN status, cancel the visa of all Chinese nationals and return them to China. I'd tell all US companies doing business in China to return those operations to the US, or pay some exorbitant tariffs on their goods and services, and I would order the DoD to immediately begin the search for domestic suppliers, with extreme prejudice for any and all Chinese goods or services.
Let the alliance caterwaul and cast shadow, they're gonna do that regardless of what happens. Use all that to boost the economy while this 'health emergency' is in place and let the alliance know that their federal funds depend on a good economy.

654 I refuse to call this anything but Kung Flu or Wuhan Flu. PC can bite moi.
Have been fairly calm til last night. Then wanted to go on rampage of sorts seeing NYC closed down. Plastic straw that broke me, those NY politician wuhans. I am now inserting that into vocabulary of cussing.
It will be interesting to see what happens in NOLA tomorrow. Isn't it your own free will, and in Constitution, if you want to get drunk on Bourbon Street on St. Patrick's Day and take chances with Wuhan Flu, which is probably afraid of Bourbon Street. Plus blood alcohol levels so high the flu would run away.
I just don't know, y'all. I hope the Dims and MSM, causing panic and stress fall flat in a week or so and cook up another crisis.
Read the remarks of 100K people in one state getting this or testing positive. Out of that 100K, how many are asymptomatic? How many have no more than a cold? How many might have a flu for a few days and live? And how many are truly ill and in ICU??? I would hazard a guess not that many.
So let's cause complete panic, force people into stores buying stuff they normally would not, and possibly spread Wuhan Fluke to freaked out people who want to eat TP. Close businesses and make people jobless. Simply brilliant.
Now, folks who live on Gulf Coast or Atlantic are used to this type of mayhem and stupid. Having hurricane season for half the year, etc. Normal people in this area already had a sort of prep vs people with hair on fire. After 2005 and Katrina, normal people would have a couple of weeks food and stuff on hand if they can afford it. But, noooooooooooo.
I also have a hint if you are shopping now, wear a mask and fake a sneeze. People, even toilet paper people, will clear the aisle for you.
Tits up, girls. Keep whatever up, boys. Somehow sanity may prevail again.xoxo

The cherry picking is egregious.
A reporter asked him how long this would go on, he said, good question, it is one I ask many times every day. The doctors say August maybe July.
That is what he said. It wasn't an "admission" which implies guilt. It wasn't an announcement. It was an answer to a question.
