"Flu Pandemic Guide: Stock up on basics.... the Feds urge Americans to stockpile food and meds".... this is on the Foxnews.com site and probably on their TV news.  I am sure the grocery stores will be swamped with people grabbing food off the shelves tommorrow. 

I think this is the governments way to "gently" start warning the American people.

Although the government is sending us a clear message that we should buy extra supplies, they're still making it worse by keeping information from us.  There have been no updates whatsoever today regarding patient conditions and additional cases. The WHO has obviosuly put a lid on the news coming out of Van Hospital until they figure out what is going on.  If the WHO keeps us in the dark for a day or two ;longer, we're sunk, IMO.  We could be approaching 100 cases for all we know.  Are the patients on ventilators, or are they recovering?  

Thanks for all ther info WHO!  The WHO is responsible for letting it get this far in the first place.  Then, they don't even prepare Van Hosptal for a BF outbreak,  Now, they're going to keep us in the dark for a day or two until they figure it out.  Losing a day or two at this stage could be very costly.     The WHO is continuing to screw this thing up  IMO .....

I've noticed that in Reno the store shelves have been noticably more bare than in the past. And one more thing...maybe people are not paying attention to the government saying to stock up, but the stores sure are! Prices in 2 weeks for 20lbs of beans jumped from $4.89 to $10.84 and right now trying to find yeast in the stores is getting pretty hard. Take notice folks ! Get your supplies now!

meewee look for yeast at a health food store. Some keep it in a large jar in a fridge. Price is very low just put in a jar when you get home, in your fridge.Makes better bread too.
