We all have varying opinions about the impact of this, the numbers, etc. We will all never agree with each other. But we can all keep it civil.

Thanks!

Well If you get to really Jones'n for it, Amazon has some. I have no idea what it normally goes for in the store, but the prices seem rank on Amazon.

I had some last month. Gotta hold off for a few months now. That’s the key with SPAM. Eat some, then retreat for a few months. I was going to be in Hawaii in mid April. Not so much anymore. Hopefully, our July reschedule will be okay. I will feast on SPAM then.

Here is a paper on how to make your own respiratory mask using a Hanes t-shirt. It provides some decent protection--not as good as N95, but better than nothing. Much of its protection is dependent upon fit.

Obviously, wash in bleach and dry between excursions.

Yes, amongst other things. However, you must include nostalgia factor. That’s where I’m originally from and I ate a SPAM Musubi almost everyday as an after school snack as a boy(back in the ages when you could eat whatever and it wouldn’t be a health issue, lol)

Many of you on here act like this is only a virus old people need to worry about.

Yeah, but that kid had leukemia which complicated things.

I've yet to read of anyone under the age of 50 dying from COVID who didn't already have underlying health issues.
