2019 nCorV Breakout? When to Bugout? | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 19703012 United States 02/13/2020 05:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My question is, when should I head north, being off grid makes wintering rather hard as we filter creek water, composting toilets etc. I just told my wife, we should go north in no more than a month or sooner before travel restrictions come into effect. We are now in southern florida. I spent a childhood on the verge of survival and starvation and so know I can endure as can my wife whom loves simplicity. My daughter whom lives up there, thinks I am nuts however LOL I get nervous thinking of being amount hundreds of thousands of people in a SHTF situation instead of a few thousand. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 76179366 United States 02/13/2020 06:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Imagine standing on the beach with your toes in the water. Someone comes up to you, tells you there is a big problem! He says there is a huge tidal wave on the way but he doesn't know exactly when it will arrive. All he can say is that he knows it will be soon. You aren't sure whether to believe him but your gut tells you he is telling the truth. You decide it will be best to move to higher ground quickly. As you start to run away from the beach, the man calls out again, "Hey, dummy, did you forget we are shipwrecked on a deserted isle? It is dangerous to go into the jungle!" You ponder his warning for a moment along with the previous one he gave you about the tidal wave. Uncertainty pinballs through your mind and you become paralyzed. Returning to the man, you say, "I don't know what to do here. You told me a tidal wave was coming, which I'm really not sure you know for certain, and then you told me it is dangerous to try to escape from it. Which one is more dangerous! Tell me!" The man stares out over the roaring ocean for a moment and then quietly replies, "The most significant danger you face in this moment is your paralysis. I have told you the dangers you face. I cannot give you probabilities. Use the best information you have available and act, NOW!". |
Jungleboogie User ID: 76648271 Canada 02/13/2020 06:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My question/request is in regards to the 'breakout' of the virus. Right now we are testing people associated with the spread of the virus specifically for nCorV. Now that there have been uncontained vectors, how will we know the spread of the nCorV virus? ie, This is not a standard test from what I hear...so will doctors test and see that is a virus of unknown origin and then send samples for nCorV testing? Or will they not know at all and just call this a viral pneumonia (and the spread continues in local staff and hospitals become overrun)? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72263490 How exactly do we stay 'ahead' of the virus once it breaks out of its current containment? That is what I want to know and judge my Bugout plans by exactly... First: If you are in a town at least 100 miles from a large city, and have a population of less than 100,000...STAY PUT. Stock up on 'dry meats' and 'salted meats', rice, canned goods, packaged staples. A couple of barrels of freshwater in the backyard. Another to collect rainwater. Second: Have a realistic bugout location. If you plan to bug out in the wilderness do realize your chance of dying is higher than the 3% mortality rate of the flu. If you show up at your uncle's farm or cousin's cabin with a car full of the supplies above and helpful tools, they will probably be happy to have you. Third: MOST IMPORTANT!!! WATCH THE GROWTH OF THE VIRUS IN YOUR LOCAL AREA!!!! CHECK LOCAL NEWS SOURCES HOURLY NOT DAILY!!! If infection rate in your city in a week goes like this: day 1: 2 infected day 2: 5 infected day 3: 12 infected day 4: 28 infected day 5: 67 infected day 6: 224 infected day 7: 234 infected Then they are lying on day 7, it's hit 500 infections and quarantine/martial law is coming within 48 hours. THEY WILL NOT TELL YOU ABOUT QUARANTINE IN ADVANCE. They will put quarantine up, THEN announce quarantine. Embrace the cognitive dissonance. |

~sideways~ User ID: 6316453 United States 02/13/2020 07:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm not bugging out. When we start seeing outbreaks in Portland or Boise my town has made plans to blockade the only road going in and out. If I'm going to die, I'm going to die warm and comfortable in my own home. Quoting: Don Peyote Same here. I know most people will make their way to the country side, but how to stave off the thugs going through the neighborhoods, the pillaging? We've got protection though. I once saw a video that said to make your home look as if it had been pillaged, i.e. broke windows, stuff in the yard, etc. What are your plans? This too shall pass... Rh Negative |

Quoting: Fred_Flintstone When should we bugout.?.? I'm planning on getting while the getting is good whenever the first cases are announced in the US have no 'connections' to anyone else. Meaning it has lost containment. Once it is here, it may only take a few weeks to spread... Asymptomatic spread No reliable test Few are actually tested The Airports keep going Good luck sizing up the situation! .. If you were to judge their motives by their results it's almost like they want this to spread. We are only screening certain people coming into the country at certain airports. Are they screening on the US - Mexico border or how about the US - Canadian border? How about all the Cosco ships you see in American ports all the damn time. Sending out faulty test kits, and not testing everyone with symptoms. Releasing 200 from quarantine who were never tested. Oh yeah, they're trying really fucking hard to stop this. Come on and take a free ride. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 78053027 Canada 02/13/2020 08:01 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Dude there is no containment. They are letting you believe there is to qwell panic. This thing is already loose and despite with others may say it is past the point of testing in large numbers. The first wave will probably get a test but subsequent waves will be self isolated or taken to camps al la Wuhan. Do you seriously believe we have the resources to diagnose tens if not hundreds of thousands if it were the case? Our ..and by our I mean North America is woefully underprepared for an event of this magnitude. I say that because we value human rights and are very politically correct. We could not shut down our cities like the Chinese whether ot be effective or not. Just hearing this COVID has an R0 of 4-6 which is very infectious and has a lot of people behind the scenes very worried I can assure you. This is going to be a case of survival of the fittest if the worst comes to pass. However of the R nought holds at 4 in the West we are in for some very turbulent time. We are living history. |

I know several who have a cold or flu, but they aren't being tested. Last weekend- One gal I know, a health conscious person, got sick while travelling in state and it hit her fast. They diagnosed pneumonia. This is in Boise Idaho. I think its here and has been for a while. If your looking to bug out due to the civil unrest, quarantines set in, probably 2 weeks. Watch close, military movement (to help with quarantine), hospitals, state and local gov meeting schedules, if your friends with leo, ask them. Local govs will get a few days heads up. Ours is already putting an emergency action plan in place, but its not because of notification (at least what I was told) Rule#4 Double Tap. |
