richieb Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 So how bad is it, economy wise - spoke with a gasoline tanker driver while riding my bicycle through the station and he has heard it discussed that some of the bigger outlets are considering having their fuel picked up due to plummeting sales — Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to make sure the Zinc you are taking is precisely what the studies used on colds, etc. Most packaged Zinc "cold remedy" supplements don't have enough Zinc in them to be effective. Check that carefully. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check that carefully. Bought at my local pharmacy. Quantum brand TheraZinc. Ten dollars for 14 large melting lozenges. When finished it stays on the back of my throat for several minutes. Using as a prophylactic. Thanks! Edit: Pharmacy did not recc. ZiCam for zinc content. ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WMcD Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 FWIW. Here in Chicago the streets are pretty much empty. We have some fog which contibutes to the effect. Like Sherlock and Watson. My employer has finally gotten the work at home system working after some exasperating problems. The person writing instructions really mess up. IT response is very delayed. I'm told that having a working work at home system up and running for our crew attracts enterprise customers. I visited the local Walmart grocery. Yes there are voids in some staples. Only generic tuna is left. But canned chicken, bread, peanut butter, and jelly are on the shelf. There seems to be no problem with milk. I'm going back tomorrow to see if I can buy a sack of potatoes. Walgreens is similar but there is no lack of milk, beer and wine. I suppose people could survive for weeks on a few cases of beer. I'm cynical about the politicos using this as an excuse to get their pusses on the tube. WMcD 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuuuuup, any chance they can. You'll see networks limiting live coverage if they continue. Updating it on the nightly news or running it continuously on the news channels. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
