    Second wave is approaching. We will be seeing business shut down because there are not enough employees to run plants such as beef packing plants, pork, poultry, etc. Manufacturing plants such as automobile plants will once again shut down. It will be April 2020 all over again.

    Yeah, and that's always the one you never wake up from, even if you have to pee. Lol

    I dont have anything but a medium sized refrigerator but I just packed the freezer as full of meat as I could get it.
    We are in the normal flu season. Just a couple of sick people get diagnosed with Corona instead of the flu and they'll shut the packing plants down. Meat prices will double just like they did before, that is when you're able to get it. Costco and Walmart are already running low on sanitary products or are out completely. If you're not taking reasonable precautions now before the panic hits your nuts.

    Remember you cannot take care of others unless you've already taken care of your family. Take care of things now so you may be of service to others later
