China Virus Threat 2020

As i said our doctor will only give us a prescription a week before the old one finishes, a 56 day supply, stupid as the tablets come in a 30 tablet pack. We have a sealed pack of 30 and an open pack of 26 made up by cutting up odd strips of tablets, i tried complaining about the silliness to no avail.

We have built up our stocks of blood pressure medication to give us an extra 2-3 weeks, stretching it, by reducing the dosage slightly every other day, checking our BP with a monitor, (there is a spare in the faraday cage) as we go. We also keep a stock of hawthorne berry capsules, as well as home dried berries, fresh garlic (we also grow it) and garlic pearls which also lower blood pressure.

Over the last couple of weeks we have topped up on coal stocks, petrol, cleaning materials, disinfectant ( i’ve also bought a new garden sprayer), latex gloves and OTC medicines, not that we were short of anything but to reduce the need to shop if things get tricky.
