I'm here in South GA (US) and my aunt who had "normal flu" sent us a family text that she tested positive and none of the rest of our local family should expect to come to her home for a while. She's on Tamilflu... And rest I suppose.

I work remotely and have been keeping up with GLP. Husband works for a software company in FL and I keep saying "don't bring that sh*t home from your office!"

We live in an area where every home has firearms, but that won't help you kick this.

We have enough in home to sustain is for several weeks, but no real preps behind that. Wishing we had more space for preps at the moment.

Currently wondering how people in our situation...in small towns/cities can fair with something like this threat. We tend to take care of eachother here, but what happens when many of us can't take care of one another if things turn nasty in rural-ish US?

Just months ago, my job required that I travel extensively throughout the US. I'm already a bit of a germaphobe and presently SO GLAD to not be in airports constantly. Can't stand being in public with all this going on.

I recall mega-dosing vitC during other flus in college and we're doing that now... Though I don't even know if it helped in the past. We didn't get sick, but many others didn't either without trying alternative interventions.

If this does get big in the states, I'm sure there are people like me--not prepped per se, but also not those who know nothing--who really won't know what to do.

This whole situation will suck for a while at least until we get some true scientific backup on WTF is actually going on.

Prayers for us all.
