Living my life as usual, going to a concert this Sunday, wife flying to TN for a week.
Your wife is flying to True Nudists for a weekend? I didn't realize there was a destination for that, that could be booked on an airline. If it's somewhere close I might drive there, rather the get on a plane.
We are pretty laid back in Australia but the govt is putting in place various precautions. Unfortunately, one of those is ... "reconsider your need to travel to Indonesia ". This means I have to cancel my naked sailing trip in April.
But I guess there are worse things that could happen. China might release an insect that attacks piles of stashed toilet paper.
I live NW UK and although there is talk of shortages of some items, personally l recently found everything needed for my own meagre needs. However because of iffy health l learnt long ago to keep a back up stock of basic things like tea/coffee, soup, porridge, long life milk for when lm too unwell to leave the house. So the only thing l miss out on is fresh items like fruit or bread, the first if which l can do without by using tin fruit and the second if pushed and we'll enough l am able to home bake!
Having recently hit mid age, l regrettably now have complex underlying illnesses so come into the vulnerable category. but if l get just a cold let alone the flu, it commonly puts me out if action for 3 ~4 weeks. So yes l am naturally being more cautious but otherwise atm continuing to live life fairly normally. However, this virus isnt going away in the near future but predicted tohit a peak this summer, then continue to be around over the coming winter and most winters here after so guess we'll have to get used to it.
Tbh what scares me far more is leaving the EU, more so now than ever given the frighteningly unsure global economy which is unlikely to pick up in the next few yrs.
I can't say for sure, but I suspect the massive buy outs of toilet paper may actually be people choosing a huge stockpile of that as an alternative or supplement to their supply of tissues. I mean we're talking two to four weeks of respiratory problems. That probably equates to mountains of mucous, and TP comes cheaper than Kleenex. Of course, it can make for raw nostrils sooner if not careful, but on the side of practical economics, it is a persuasive case to just roll with it.
If you can at least save some coin during your near death experience, hey...
What snot to love?
I am ready to stack up 12 x 48 rolls of toilet paper as great totem against the Covid-19 spirits and dance around it naked in my living room. Then I will wear scuba gear to venture into Costco and see if I can dive for the last remnants of any remaining pasta. If the weather gets warmer I'm going to sport a gas mask and nothing else in public. But I will still wake up scared breathless every morning at 2 AM with the great haunting angst that somebody, somewhere is not using hand sanitizer.
We have been living life as normal for the most part. We had planned on going to The mountains next week but canceled because the governor said that mountain resorts are the hot bed here in Colorado so the wife doesnt want to take the chance.
I do find myself washing my hands more often but I am still shacking hands. We went to a party last night and everyone was shanking hands and hugging. There was less than 50 people there. I am guessing that most staid home out of fear. More cake for me!

There's always a bright side to these situations! ;DDD
