Yes indeed! despite there being only anecdotal evidence that hydroxychloroquine is an effective treatment for the virus. It was noted a couple of months ago that people who *need* the drug (people with Lupus, for example) were having a hard time getting it because some other crackpot claimed it would prevent or cure Covid-19. Hydroxychloroquine also comes with some rather serious side effects. Jill |

Lots of medical people are taking this themselves as a preventative, and recommending it to patients. This is not just one dumb cluck making things up. Still, the results from actual well thought out and implemented studies are needed. |

Canada geese are among the highest flying birds, which is why they are frequently struck by jets. I see the same pairs here every year, I can tell by their walk, not by their appearance... some develop a limp from a bad landing. Some lose a foot from a pond with snapping turtles. Canada geese rarely habituate large bodies of water, they typically seek vernal ponds which are very shallow and disappear in the heat of summer. Canada geese mate for life, when one loses a mate they return to where they were born hoping to find a new mate. I have the same geese here each year but as their offspring mature they may find a new place to live. |

I suggest that he might have been onto something. Consider this: Alcohol is a known disinfectant for your hands. You can introduce that into your body via alcohol drinks. Sheldon here even mentioned that idea first when he said that Crystal Palace for mouthwash then drink to kill off the virus. Once in your body, it stays in the bloodstream for a while. Same place that the virus would be. A steady bit of drinking will keep the alcohol there and possibly fend off and kill small amount of a virus. With all the numbers being quoted on the news these days, I'd love to see statistics of cases, deaths among people that are moderate drinkers. It makes sense to me although I'm certainly not an "expert" in the medical sense. I'm a firm believer in the Sheldon approach to this problem although I take a smaller dose of the cure medicine. I drink beer rather than hard liquor. This still gives me a virus killing dose in my bloodsteam daily. Just watch....the medical experts will discover that fact in the future. |

Damn, I knew I should have bought stock in Kimberly-Clark. ;) Here's a completely unrelated but true funny.

I very often see people at the check out buying one single > roll of TP... they probably tear off just one sheet and use both > sides. (snippage) You've got to be the only person I know who has "very often" seen people buying one single roll of TP. I've been buying 12 roll packs for as long as I can remember. Split between two bathrooms, usually lasts a few months. Then again, I have Crohn's Disease and one of the symptoms includes the occasional bout of diarreha. So I might use more TP than you do, every once in a while. The thing about this pandemic is no one ever envisioned entire families stuck in self-quarantine for months on end. If you had five people living in your house your supply would deplete pretty quickly. But hey, if you've got 300 rolls of TP in the basement, be a pal and send me some! I sure as hell can't find any right now. And yes, it's a problem with not only demand but also the supply chain. It's entirely possible some of those truckers are sick or are taking care of sick family members; a good reason not to be on the road. As I mentioned before, I do have a rag bag. If absolutely necessary I'll start using and constantly washing rags. I'd prefer not to but hey, better than nothing at all. Jill |

Toilet paper???? I suppose tongue in cheek would be more appropriate than tongue between cheeks. I can't see the Covid19 situation increasing the need or use of toilet paper. I might suggest that, given way that people are hoarding it, leading to shortages on store shelves I imagine that people are finding ways to cut down on their TP consumption. I am wondering how much the manufacturers are planning to make and how much retailers want to have to store. At some point this situation will clear up and people will be confident of finding it in stores again and they are going to stop hoarding it. Lots of people who used to buy it weekly, biweekly or monthly are going to have several months supply. Manufacturers and retailers will be paying a lot of money for warehouse space to store the stuff that is not selling. |

Dad's response was "Who would ever need to have a package > delivered overnight?" Oh dear... Stock is funny stuff. When my great grandfather died he had a bunch of stock in Bell Telephone. No one else wanted it so my grandmother reluctantly took it as part of her share of the estate. The value of the stock soared and her brother and sisters thought that she should share some of the stock with them. On the other side of stock investments, I had a friend who lost her government job and got a hefty buyout. She did two stupid things with it. One was to by a distributorship for caffeinated water and the rest was all invested in Nortel and that stock went down the tubes with record speed. There were even fraud charges involved by the time it went bankrupt. |

I might suggest that, given way that people are hoarding it, > leading to shortages on store shelves I can imagine an increase in the use of toilet paper at home. Mom & dad were working and used the bathroom facilities there. Kids were in school and used the bathroom facilities there. But when many companies shutdown and kids were no longer going to school suddenly you've got four, five, six, or more people at home using the house bathroom and the house toilet paper 24/7. But I do think a lot of people were and are panic buying and buying as much toilet paper and paper towels they can. That's why most all stores limited shoppers to one pack of each. Now were those packs the huge ones or were they just small 4 or 6 rolls? |

The few that they add during the night sells out quickly the next morning. I was down to a couple of weeks left and last week, I went early. Only 2 12-packs double rolled there. First time in weeks that ANY were there. I got one so I'm all set now for a few months. WHEW! |

Quite well known here so best avoided in Cromer itself for tourist tax, but surrounding villages do magnificent dressed crabs you just eat straight out of the shell. |

The one I had in Georgia came on a platter with a pound of shrimp, some potatoes and corn a mallet and no plates. They leave a roll of cheap brown paper towel to serve as your plate and your napkins. It took several yards of paper towel to make it through the meal. |

If you find yourself in those situations, you're going to have an oximeter clipped onto your finger. The ones in hospitals give readings in real time and knowing O2 saturation levels in the blood is a pretty basic need in patient care. The invention of this non-invasive device was a big improvement over having to take blood samples every few minutes to run tests. |
