Wondering what issues we are all experiencing. Being a snow bird in Az. and wanting to return back to home in Tn. We decided to stay in place for the time being. Being retired from the military, we unusually stay on military Rv parks, how ever several have locked down, were not taking in new arrivals. Has any one feeling the pinch on traveling where private RV parks are doing the same.

What are any other issues you are experiencing other than grocery stores out of a lot of escentuals.

We have N95 masks from several years ago in our emergency supplies that we use whenever going into stores. The data sheet for the masks clearly shows they filter the 125 nm covid-19 virus.

Right now we have some dry camp trips a couple months out that we still plan on going on.



Mod's edit: Per the site Admin's request, I am closing all COVID-19 threads and directing future comments to one thread in Around the Campfire.

My suggestion WAS to see a doctor if you cough. Please refrain from cherry picking words out of a posting. This self test worked flawlessly when I failed it multiple times

BEFORE
BEFORE

Any symptoms of my late Feb symptoms of H1N1 kicked my butt and left me bedridden for 2 weeks.

Fail the test see a doctor is anything but bad info.

And please remember

IT WAS THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION

Who in early January pronounced LOUDLY

THE COVID19 VIRUS WAS NOT TRANSMISSABLE PERSON TO PERSON

Avoiding ingesting the virus is the only way to stay safe

Good luck. Everyone

Currency exchange rates can be pretty cruel down here. A few places eat 10% and then with Visa it doesn't appear for a week.

Would love to read that link. Tried this with H1N1 and failed perhaps 20 times in 5 days and gave up.

Best way is to not contract the virus

I get my nitrile gloves from our local Hazardous Freight, put them on in the morning, then take them off in a sterile manner before I come back through the front door. I don't have to wash my hands a million times. I'm about to put my rig up for sale sadly, so no worry now about where we'll go. I talked to a Doctor from Spain today. No covid19 patient gets a ventilator if their 60 years old or more. We could see the same thing here in the US as projections are demand will far outstrip available ventilators within a month. They project this whole thing will take 18-24 months to play out. ๐Ÿ˜ž Hope you all stay well.

3/4 timing in a DIY van conversion. Backroads, mountains, boondocking, sometimes big cities for a change of pace.
