Drill

Think about your neighbors and their kids. Let's say they are not going to steal your supplies, but they might beg for a little of your help.  When you say no, they will most likely just walk away.  It will be at that point that you will regret that you didn't buy anything extra for people.   You may even give from your own supplies, as hard as that is to imagine right now.     

 

I am going to buy some extra rice and some basics to have on hand for the neighbors.  You can buy a 25 lb bag of rice at Costco for $5.00.  

 

 

 

 

I am surprised the press has not heard of this, or maybe at this stage there is some privacy issue if they are not sure of diagnosis.  If her hospital has diagnosed her with variant Creutzfeldt Jakob disease, the human disease you might get if you eat meat from a "mad cow", then pretty soon public health authorities and CDC will start investigating.  This year mad cow disease became a problem for sure in this country with cattle, I don't know if it is completely under control.  She could have a very similar disease from other causes. The CDC and USDA publish a lot of information - some links at the end of this, but to quote a 2002 investigation, it is not easy to come to the conclusion of what has happened:

"The Florida Department of Health and the CDC are investigating a likely
case of new variant Creutzfeldt Jakob disease (vCJD) in a 22-year-old
citizen of the United Kingdom living in Florida. The clinical diagnosis
was made at a hospital in the U.K and she has since returned to the U.S.
Preliminary analysis of information provided by the U.K. indicates that
the patient’s clinical condition and history are consistent with vCJD
acquired in the U.K. However, the only way to confirm a diagnosis of
vCJD is through study of brain tissue obtained by a brain biopsy or
at autopsy."

 

 

 

Already have done that and if need be will share.

On Sharing Preps:

 

I have my preps and I've laid in a store of "Giveaways" which were inexpensive but will take care of folks asking for help.  They include:

 

Rice  each bag $2/5 lbs

Beans each bag $2 / 2 lbs

Ramen Noodles 10 / $1 or case of 24 for $1.98

Spaghetti bags for $3 / 6 lbs and boxes at $1 for (2) 1lb boxes

Tomato Sauce 5 / $1 -- case of 48 for $9.60

Saltines .75 per large box

Grape Jelly $1 per jar

soup (tomato and chicken noodle)  2 cans  / $1

 

Each week when I do my shopping, I throw a few extra's in the cart for the giveaway pile.  What if I were the one who was going hungry? I'd hope someone would give me something to eat.

Hence some of us will begin to doubt our course of action in the beginning We will be sitting at home while all appears normal We are going to feel a little silly like nut cases Im afraid This could cause some of us to make deadly mistakes We have to steel ourselves for that posability Especially considering that the official line on the MSM is going to downplay the situation  John Q public isnt going to get whats happening untill way too late Doubt is going to be something were going to have to face We are going to be a lonely minority

 

Can this be put into the drill too [how we will handle the MSM and TPTB downplaying the situation] Doubt in our actions could cost us dearly
