Ok.  Now I think its time to buckle up for a rough ride.  The Coronavirus is in Israel and that I beleive means its almost certainly in Syria...which means its gonna hit Turkey, Southern Europe in a rough way, spread all over the Middle East and then play HOLY HELL in Africa and India.

This is a pandemic.

I'm early but I believe I'm right.

This thing is global.  How hard will it hit?  Gas in my area is under 2 dollars a gallon.  We've heard talk about supply chain disruptions and I believe that will increase.

The real question is this.  What will happen to the goods that we all need for everyday survival?  Does it make sense to check preps?  Should we start stockpiling before the rest of the public catches on?

Fuck yeah this is possibly alarmist, but what happens when the mainstream news media starts broadcasting this wide?  Big cities will certainly be slammed and I can't help but wonder what this will do to the "just in time" supply of various items.
