Sanitizer and the RV

So I hear that some folks are using Tito's Vodka for sanitizer during the Corona Virus outbreak. Who knew that you could sanitize from the inside out.....

Update: Tito's says their product is only 40% alcohol, CDC recommends 60%. Might want to mix those drinks a little strong.....

Laugh a little it's better than crying!

This flu is different as it came out of nowhere and since there is no historical data we do not know what the effect may be and there is no vaccine as of yet. We take the same precautions that we took every flu season. There has been a flu season as long as I can remember and I am a old guy so I remember many. The lock down makes it easier because there is nowhere to go and nothing to do. We are not worried but we do not ignore the reality.

I agree. You don’t stand in a window if your neighbor has just bought a gun saying he is going to shoot you. The epidemiologist have been saying for decades this was going to happen. It could have been much worse and the next one might be and kill a much higher percentage. Suppose Eboil was transmitted easily there would be tens if not hundreds of millions die.

Around here we use moonshine. A guy that lives close to us makes it and I’ll bet he is making some now to protect his neighbors.
When you go around someone you know is making moonshine you worry about the ATF showing up and would you be arrested to. The ATF showed up at my shop last year looking for moonshine. No chance of finding it here, I don’t like it and don’t drink it.

We winter in Cozumel Mexico the cruise ship capital of the Caribbean!
We have 34 this week I think.
I’m not worried about it yet but we head back the end of the month and have to fly.
That’s where I’m most concerned.

Seems the Virus does not like the tropics, isn't that a switch. After a few Corona's I brought home a case of Dengue From Tulum a few years back, we also spend 3-4 weeks each winter down there.

DW had a doctor appointment at North Austin Medical Center yesterday and they have started a new protocol for entry. All building entries were blocked and employees and patients have to answer questions. They will not allow anyone inside exhibiting symptoms of the virus. They do not have any test kits. North Austin is owned by national corporation HCA and all HCA facilities have started the same program nationwide. Last week I went on a site walk at a local microchip plant and had to answer lots of health questions before they would hand out security badge.

My company started a similar entry/registration program at all of our job sites nationwide. I live out in the in the country and work from home 4 days per week...I don’t mix with the masses and I intend to keep it that way. Maybe this thing will go away when good ol’ hot and humid weather returns!

I read that it won't survive in temps over 25C. I think that is around 77F. So I thought when summer arrives it should die out until fall.

If that's the case how does it live in our bodies where the temp is around 98.6.
I'm nearly out of Corona's and hoping when I restock the price will be down due to no demand.

That's how most flu seasons go. I think being outdoors more in the warmer weather and ultraviolet light has a lot to do with flu season ending in the spring.
In colder weather people are indoors more. More exposure.

People have been tracking Cell phone users. China has lost 21 Million cell phone customers some probably because they could not afford the payments, But this is quantitative data which can not be denied.. March 24th data:
https://t.co/VFnBWX2dCw?amp=1
One factory started all their machines just to use electricty becasue it was mandated, No workers in sight.

Extremely graphic videos. View at your own discretion. This is the only disclaimer I can possibly give. We are all adults here. Just FYI of how bad this could get without precautions. Boy Scout Motto: Be Prepared

Look at south America. Guatamala, Venezula and others. Here is a very graphic video. If you have a weak stomach and are nauseous for any reason. Then do not watch. Well over temps of 77F daily.

This is common occurrence. With the exception of Guatamala when they are trying to get their diseased picked up. End up public burnings because the do not have the resources.


The truth about China: Watch at your own discretion.

https://twitter.com/TruthAbtChina

This is vile and disgusting video. I did not create it. Just pointing out the reality of it all. For all the people say this is just the flu.
This is Indonesia. https://twitter.com/i/status/1246518811576225792

I'm not worried about it one bit, yearly flu kills more people but no one says that. Need to worry more about guns....killed more than 150 million one candidate said.
