I'm almost back to normal, after spending the last six days feeling cruddy. Mostly lying in bed, too tired to do anything. Today I've been able to do some record transcriptions and watched a couple of Men in Black movies. Currently watching the first episode of a documentary series called Pandemic. Yikes.
I went to the Safeway store. My friends elsewhere are reporting shelves stripped of everything. At my Safeway I saw the bottled water and toilet paper aisles seemed empty, but everything else was well stocked. Perhaps the full-on panic has not hit my neighborhood yet. I have enough food to feed myself, Doug, and Birdy for a while if necessary (I guess I should get more dog food).
Irritating to think this started coronavirus started because some people in China had to eat some wild animals that they should not have been eating. Perhaps this pandemic will stop the wild animal trade, but I am skeptical because people are stupid and prone to think stupid things.
