Might I ask you for your perspective on how things are in your part of Mexico? And which part of Mexico you're in?

Reporting from Northern Mexico…

# Confirmed Cases

3/24/2020 405
3/30/2020 1094
4/03/2020 1688

As of today: Total deaths 60

Testing is few and far between and combined with a 14 day incubation period the reported numbers of confirmed cases seems very low.

There are medical experts who predict Mexico will suffer much greater losses of death than most other countries due to higher than average rates of Diabetes, hypertension, and obesity. Combined with the lack of hospitals and medical infrastructure and massive rural areas with little of any medical facilities this is a perfect storm. For me the closest hospital is 2 hours way apart from a rural hospital an hour away that has limited beds as it is.

As announced both major beer companies have stopped all production of beer and beer sales due to being considered a non-essential product. However the real truth to these closures is the fact that here in Mexico the largest portion of beer sales are in returnable beer bottles.

This prevents a huge health issue even when there isn’t a pandemic. Now with all these empty contaminated bottles going back to the store or point of sale only to then contaminate the store, employee’s, or even customers is why these companies have ceased production and sales.

These closures were forced on these companies and the real reason was not given because there are so many people who simply do not heed or consider this to be a very serious situation. As of today I am seeing people still buying beer and soda in returnable bottles as if life is still normal.

[link to www.msn.com (secure)]


This brings me to Coca Cola, as they offer a wide variety of returnable glass and plastic bottles and have not suspended sales of these items as of yet. This is a huge health hazard and during a pandemic if Coca Cola is continuing this practice they should be held financially liable.

There are some places where roads are being closed into some areas in a preventative way to stop the spread of the virus. While all of these measures will help slow the spread of the virus it will not stop it.

Yesterday in our rural area the government handed out pension money for those who are 70 years old and older. Large groups in the hundreds of people lined up without any social distancing and fought their way to the front to get their money, often times younger family members having to accompany their older relatives. This cluster fuck of people were all probably unwittingly spreading the virus.

Our local banks have contacted loan holders and said they are not charging any penalties or additional interests on loans and if you cannot make payments they will work it all out in 2 months or when the lock down is over… basically admitting these loans are now going to be written off.

Utilities are said "won’t be cut off", and are to remain “on” even if there is a lack of payment due to the lock down and loss of jobs. All the factories in our area have closed and many nonessential business have also closed. Our local government and state government offices have all been closed now for a week and will remain closed until further notice.

The bottled water trucks, grocery stores, propane and other vital services are still running for now. Thankfully I am on a well so we have water and should continue to as long as we have electricity but I cannot say the same for cities who have a water system.

With the loss of jobs and the already super high poverty rate even before all these closings, I know we are in for much higher crime rates, and desperation on the part of many who have families and babies to care / provide for.

I will post further updates as I hear anything just to share firsthand knowledge of the situation here. Feel free to ask any questions.

Fauci is the one who created the virus. Trump reinstated gain of function [biological warfare] experimentation and Dr Fauci headed up the program at the University of North Carolina level 4 bio-hazard lab. It is no coincidence in my opinion that the same year Trump fired the Federal Pandemic response team he also started biowarfare research... The virus itself was isolated from the south american horseshoe bat, a species not indigenous to China. siren2

Then smile because you are an intelligent, educated, well-spoken human being. In other words, not one of them.

Four Ethiopian Airlines 77-200’s in New Orleans today.

Word is that they are bringing in staff to operate the non-US flagged cruise ships off of Mississippi, and then returning Fillpino Staff currently on them to Manila.

Last week it was 10%

In two weeks it will probably be 30%+

ppl posting 20% are adding in CHINA's #'s still. outside CHINA it holds 25%+. that is still using made up doctored #'s. we see Ecuador's death # but the bodies say it is much higher,assume all are playing with the #'s.

go back to the beginning death rate 45%.

OK guys, do you remember those "Choose your own adventure" books when you were a kid?

Wordsworth sunk into the chair at his computer desk after an exhausting day of splitting firewood for next winter. The possibility of physical and mental breakdown is now very real. No sympathy for the Devil, keep that in mind. Buy the ticket, take the ride. To his right sits a coffee mug and a gallon jug of Tito's Handmade Vodka. To his left, an AR15 locked and loaded.


If you decide to drink the gallon of vodka, turn to page 267.

If you choose to call it an early night so tomorrow you can be productive in prepping for the end of the world, turn to page 188.

LOL I agree.... Ive been watching the news non-stop, been living on the internet soaking up as much Covid19 news as I possible can during my two week (So far) self lock down and watching the fools outside go about life as if everything is normal.

I have stored 4 months of food and water, 6 months of propane, antibiotics and everything I need. Heck I even have plywood already pre-cut and ready for all my windows. I have quietly done all of this, I'm already inside and I'm ready for a 6 month lock down situation.

There is a small grocery store across the street and people are still buying beer from returnable bottles and just going about life as if the crisis will never hit this area. I live in a very poor rural area where the people do not plan or prep at all.

There are going to be a lot of very surprised individuals who have not planned for the food trucks to stop running in these remote areas or the sudden stop of life as they know it.

How can I feel sorry for these people buying beer and having fun right now....
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77316143


Do you put the plywood on the outside, inside or both? I've never put plywood over my windows but it sounds like a good idea.
 Quoting: Bloody Peasant!


If you put it outside you'll need to use fasteners that are impossible to remove. And whatever you'd consider? Use the heaviest fasteners you can obtain; thin, short screws simply require a small pry bar to remove.

I'd suggest inside, yeah there could be broken glass but it'll stay largely outside the living space.
 Quoting: Larry D. Croc


but won't it b hard to shoot out the windowe to stop the guy from burning the house down?
 Quoting: JAZZz50


My structure here is reinforced rebar cement and brick... hard to burn down, if not impossible. Sure they can shoot through the plywood but at that point Im sure the windows behind the wood are already broken if Im using plywood so its a moot point.

Under CV19 lockdown, how often should we be going out to our cars and starting them up? Thinking about dying batteries...
 Quoting: PugTard


I keep a trickle charger on my truck since that is our bugout vehicle. But I would say that as long as you have no drain coming from anywhere, you could leave it for a couple of weeks and it should still start up.
 Quoting: Riff-Raff


Start it and let it run a full ten minutes, or you can trickle charge it. Modern cars draw current from the battery continuously even when shut off and allowing it to slowly drain completely will ruin it
