RE: Thoughts and sights in the midst of corona virus quarantine

in OCD5 years ago

It is true all the toilet paper here in the states is gone. This makes no sense at all, but like you said they must feel better knowing they have it. I personally stocked up on flu and cold medicine thinking if I do get sick, aint no one going to come over to my place to help me get better. I wasn't scared until I went to Walmart over the weekend. There was panic. I grabbed what pasta I could find and got the hell out of there. I won't go back again. The one worker helped me put my groceries in the car not to be helpful, but because they needed to get the carts back as soon as possible to let other people use them.

I liked your meme but I laughed at this part:

they needed to get the carts back as soon as possible to let other people use them.

It is actually sad to think about it when others take advantage of the crisis for their business.

You're wise to have stocked up on medicines. Maybe you can also have food supplements specially vit C. This is what one medical specialist advised that "instead of worrying about toilet paper or alcohol to clean yourself, you should buy food supplements and focus on boosting your immune system."

I was also not scared until last Monday when our president ordered enhanced quarantine. We are no longer allowed to go to work so we work from home. Thanks to technologies that we can do such!

I really pray that this will be over soon. I wonder how long I can last in home quarantine...

Thanks. I'm glad we can still laugh. I try my best to stay stocked with juice and vitamins anyway. My co-workers stocked up on airborne vitamin c a few months ago because of flu season, so we have all been taking it. Today I bought more juice too.

We are doing our best at work to keep everything clean. We all stay 6 feet apart while working and we keep the doors to the other parts of the building closed. There is a sign on each door that says to use your elbows to turn the handles and lights. It's insane but we are still working. We are a compounding lab so we made our own hand sanitizer and each of us have a bottle at our station.

Here in America they are beginning to close everything. First it was the schools, then the bars and restaurants and last night they closed the liquor stores. There's really no reason to go out but to get food and supplies. There is still a shortage of toilet paper here tho.

Most everyone is working from home. Our local weather man was broadcasting from his house. It's the craziest thing, but if it prevents us from spreading the virus it is worth it. Tomorrow will be my first day off, but I'm so tired from working it will be nice not to be bothered.

I hope you can find things to keep yourself amused. I am a gamer so I will be playing games and napping. :D

Airborne vit C? That's something new to me. I never knew there is one like that.

Six feet seem too fat but sounds safer. Our social distancing was recommended at one meter apart.

Our home quarantine is getting stricter and stricter. I started working from home on Tuesday. Yesterday, my landlady was asking if I have ID as proof that I am a resident in our area because they are locking our village out from non-residence. I only have proof of billing address and my landlady said the officials will not recognize it. I guess I gotta fight to be back home once I get out of the village to buy more stock.

I agree, there is no reason to go out other than what you said. I may need to do it every weekend to have a reason to somehow breath open air.

Well, I actually have a lot to do but just have a lot of excuses I guess. I spent this whole Saturday doing movie marathon when I have paper crafts to finish. I wonder how I will spend tomorrow, Sunday. Let's see... 😁
