[/quote] Yep, I am following it myself. Thanks for the information, it was helpful. Prayers for the OP. And I also been gathering information on it too. But like everything else, we doomed ourselves already a very very long time ago. Big Corporations and less and less facilities. It is all real sad. Then you have specific industry classifications and with the restaurants closed, tons and tons food lost cause no one to buy it. Really sad too again. I can go on and on but really, thanks for the information. [/quote] Yes and schools are not going to be going back until fall, maybe. I just seems to me that they could put cases of lunch milk on an empty shelf, at least there would be something( even if it came in little cartons, and the produce could be picked by consumers. We have several orchards and fruit farms around here that will just charge by the bushel, or sell beans and other veg by the pound. It is sad that most people would be to lazy to pick it themselves. [/quote] I have been prepped for a long time and yes, I am poor. This really has not effected me too much cause I planned and speculated on all this over a decade ago at least. Even practiced bugout for the hell of it now, which is way way more fun. And I tweaked it really good. I pray for people all the time still. I wish no one harm and only goodwill. But it takes years not prepare with items, but your mind. Good luck and God Bless. [/quote]

Update 4/12
After considering the consequences of adding to fears I have decided not to proceed with keeping this thread updated on a daily basis. Those who wish to share information and discuss the subject are free to do so. The anxiety I created for myself alone is enoigh for me to step back. I recognize my limitations and will no longer participate in this thread. We need solutions to problems rather than adding to the problem themselves.
Supply chains starting to crack. I work for a major food processing plant in the midwest. Someone I work with has family that works at the factory who supplies all of our plastic products. This particular factory supplies our company with 30,000 cups and lids of all sizes every few days. Apparently that plant is shutting down for 28 days. This will disrupt our ability to distribute our food products at the plant I work at. As of now we will be down the next 3 days for fog disinfecting the entire plant for a 2nd week in a row. With this disruption we are expecting an additional week to two weeks of no production which will significantly impact walmarts and grocery stores across the region.
This is the real deal folks. Food manufacturing in the midwest are now seeing disruptions. You know what will follow. Will keep this thread updated.
