82/ I've been saying this a lot. Right now, masks are hard to get, but bleach, ozone generating machines, pallets of peanut butter / pasta / canned sauces ... all of this stuff is available with free 2-day delivery from Walmart. Tomorrow, though? https://twitter.com/Scholars_Stage/status/1230893418940895234 …

83/ COV19 panic is going to hit like bankruptcy: "slowly at first, and then all at once".

84/ I saw a news article this morning along the lines of "CDC has declared Covid19 an XYZ, and bureaucratic rules say that that means that only FDA approved tests are official, and there are no FDA approved tests". So ... measurement errors, I suspect.https://twitter.com/Face_Almighty44/status/1230918475322970114 …

86/ good side thread on how the markets are (or, rather, aren't) reacting to
#Covid19@jonst0kes doesn't quite come out and say it, but I think subtext is "this is real, the results will be real, and 99% of people are blind to it for historical reasons"https://twitter.com/jonst0kes/status/1230911959937245192 …Show this thread -

90/ Frens, I repeat my earlier advice: drop $100 or $200 on staples from Walmart, with free 2-nd day delivery. Food, TP, tissues, basic household meds (cough drops, aspirin - all that stuff)https://twitter.com/MorlockP/status/1228335571178790912 …

94/ Two days ago I pulled half of my retirement fund out of S&P500 index funds and moved it into bonds because I predicted panic selling as the impact of
#covid19 became clear. Today:https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/24/business/stock-market-coronavirus.html …Show this thread -

96/ Over the last two weeks we've purchased masks, bleach, hand sanitizer, topped up our food (~ 2 year supply), and moved money out of the market just before it crashed. Getting very close to buttoning up the farm and staying in til it's done. Is Saturday our last day out?

97/ It was about 4 weeks ago that I looked at the numbers and said "it's too late; the pandemic has started". Glad that the smarter breed of normies have caught up, just a month late. Sorry that the other 99% still haven't.https://twitter.com/MorlockP/status/1228086074871865345 …

100/ That was my extreme high limit, based on minimal data, and I bet against it at "20:1 or 30:1". A month later, and we've got better data. Today the CDC estimate for American deaths is " As many as 200,000 to 1.7 million people could die." https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/13/us/coronavirus-deaths-estimate.html …

101/ So my extreme high-end estimate was ~ 6x the reasonable high end of the CDC estimate today, a month later. Very very happy to have reality clock in better than I feared!

105/ For those reading this thread (it seems popular today!), a little background about me: I'm a 48yo software engineer, former entrepreneur now just gun-for-hire. I live on a 56 acre farm in NH, I raise about half of my own food (sheep, pigs, turkeys, geese, chickens). >>

106/ I slaughter and butcher my meat, and put it away in chest freezers in the basement. I try to use every part of the animal, whether that means making blood pudding, or cooking and eating "variety meats" (what do you do with pig liver? make liverwurst)pic.twitter.com/UwPrzywgCw
