Where can I buy mask and hand sanitzer these days?

etsy, ebay, and amazon for masks (not n95 though)

or Black Owned Face Mask Businesses | SHOPPE BLACK

Check small hardware stores for hand sanitizer. I make my own out of rubbing alcohol and scented dishwashing liquid though. Make sure to use 70% rubbing alcohol or dilute the 91% to about 70% or so. 90 proof dries too quickly, which is why it’s used for cleaning electronics. With ~70 there’s enough water for it to sit wet long enough to kill the virus, which is known as the “kill time”. Most disinfectant sprays have a kill time of around 1 minute, which is how long it takes to totally get rid of the virus cells. Natural stuff like vinegar doesn’t really work because the surface would need to soak in it for a very long time to be effective.

Never been a fan of gates and fences, but I’m going to be installing a security door on my house soon in preparation of the looming economic fallout from this. I installed a door reinforcement lock on my frame recently. I’m already noticing an uptick in strange activity neighborhood since these SIP orders have been placed.

Bro arent WE all praying there is no 2nd wave

U sound like u want a 2nd wave to happen

Fred
Yes we’re praying for that. But at this point I’ve come to grips with reality.

There will be a second wave most likely. Like @Rarely-Wrong Liggins was saying it feels like tens if not hundreds of thousands maybe even millions more will die. Doctors and nurses, nurse aids etc are being infected while wearing masks. This thing is airborne not much can be done to stop it.

We know many politicians don’t care about people’s well being and it is what it is. By the time this is done we will probably all be affected by this in one way or another.

It’s best to just be smart and do what you can to protect your small circle.

Many people are taking Mother Nature for granted, we’ve seen her power in the form of tornadoes, hurricanes etc recently we must have forgotten this side of her personality. Mother Nature doesn’t care if you can fight, have a gun, are black/white/Asian, Democrat, gay, a fear monger or a conspiracy theorist. Mother Nature moves swiftly with disregard for you and your personal life. She has destroyed civilizations and wiped out entire species without a care in the world.

Had this happened in the 1950s our response would have been better. The memory of the Spanish flu would still be fresh in the minds of those responsible and irresponsible alike. But alas we have forgotten.

This is just a part of life. We pray for the best but lessons not learned in blood are soon forgotten.
