Coronavirus is definitely having an impact on business!

Someone in my wife’s MBA group works for Cargill and I was talking to him yesterday, so they are going nuts with stores buying so much beef and restaurants trying to return huge amounts. He said without the returns from restaurants there might be a shortage.

Joe Hell How many confirmed cases are there in your town? Wichita has a few. I really hope everyone is being smart about this. Don’t go panic-buy a bunch of stuff BUT if you have some extra sure cure hold on to that stuff and start thinking about making some cured food products for long term storage!

Jonathon I think there has only been one confirmed case admitted to our hospital but he wasn’t from Walla Walla. The man could potentially have exposed many people as he works at a casino about 40 minutes from here and also attended a youth basketball game where he collapsed and paramedics were called. He was then taken to our local hospital.

Joe Hell I think that’s what scaring people the most, the fact that 1 person can infect so many people before they are symptomatic. I told my older neighbor yesterday that if she needs anything at all to call me and I will take care of it but if it’s like food or meds or something she needs I will drop it off on her doorstep, I told her no more face to face contact for while which sucks cause my dogs LOVE this lady and she lives alone so I don’t think she gets to see a lot of people.
It seems like if you aren’t over 70 or don’t have a pre-existing condition it is just slightly worse than the regular flu.

The wife and I have granddaughters who insist that we stay at home and call them if we want something we are more lucky than some Jonathon it is good of you to look out for your neighbor

Jonathon after a morning rush it’s almost a ghost town. We are the only business open for a few blocks. This street would normally be almost impossible to find a parking spot

Starting to look similar around here. Not quite that bad though. Wi just shuttered all bars and restaurants late yesterday afternoon. We are only delivering off premise accounts. Office staff has been sent home with their computers to work from there. Strange times. -
Joe Hell my friend who is an ICU nurse in Seattle posted this a little bit ago, “I’m putting out a call to anyone who has N95 masks or PPE they’re willing to part with. Our hospitals are critically low.” You better just head for the hills!

I’m glad I usually over cook, have a vacuum sealing system, & have both a full fridge & freezer in the garage. Give me 10# of dried beans & with the 25# of rice we’ve got we should be able to last over 6 months. Just have to worry about fuel for the outdoor cooking tools.

macsinsac I did see Kosmos Q yesterday post a video saying that charcoal was going to be the next thing people were going to start hoarding after toilet paper, he said he was getting calls wanting to know if they had charcoal. I’d probably take it with a grain of salt, as its probably more of a marketing ploy in my mind, because I have seen tons of charcoal in the stores I have been in.

Tex_77 I saw a guy at Home Depot the other day with an overloaded shopping cart of Royal Oak. Hoarding was my first thought. Yesterday there was a lady at the grocery store with what looked like all of the yogurt and english muffins the store had in-stock.

Joe Hell My nurse friend there says you better be washing your hands like your life depends on it! Says you need to sanitize everything, so maybe you need to pick up some everclear and try to sanitize yourself from the inside out. The local distillery here in town announced that they have begun to produce hand sanitizer in-lieu of spirits and will be giving it out to the community for free next week sometime.

One of the myths I was just reading dealt with the masks. Only the people who have the virus and the medical folks who are dealing with this on the front lines should have them. So quit hoarding these.Everclear? Good luck finding it. Received 55cs this week and promptly left the warehouse. Still on back order.
We have a local craft distiller trying to get to us a straight high content alcohol right now.

I have plenty of all of those (except the cash and gold bars) and refuse to buy into this hoarding concept. -

Many delivery services in the area are now including a free roll of toilet paper with orders. There is a store in Pendleton giving tp away with Cannabis sales. lol.

Just grabbed some sale items including some beers that went on sale from the stores recent flier that comes in the paper. This is just a normal thing I do. Saved $57. Did see a lot of empty shelf space and some carts loaded up but… Being just a house of one I don’t need to over buy. -

I dropped off a large bag of prepared meats (ribs, steak and sausages) to the grandparents today to help them get by. They joked that they’ve been on quarantine for the last 20 years so it’s been a breeze so far. Local Albertson’s and Safeway stores have implemented a senior citizen shopping time of 7-9 each morning. My grandpa said he’s never seen so many old people. lol.
