I might call this article “Coronavirus Update” or “The Latest about Covid19” or something flashy like that, but in essence, it is not about that, mostly because I do not have anything too smart to say about newest situation, and I am not here to frighten you into something, or to bring panic, or to “shovel fear”.
I call it simply “continuing preparing”.
The smartest people from the medical field do not have any huge updates or ideas about the virus, except that it may go in a few different directions. Some of those are very bad, but all of us are simply waiting to see what will be.
What I want to write about are a few interesting things that I noticed.
Panic is contagious
How many times have we heard those words “panic is contagious?” Especially we in the prepper community?
And how many times have we discussed and concluded that once something serious is about to happen, we are gonna stay calm while everybody else around us is panicking?
Once more it is proven that as much as the availability of information on public media and numerous “breaking news” stories are good, because we have a choice and timely information. But it is also proven that false media can bring people to make bad decisions because they are panicking.
For example, is there any sense in running into crowded stores now to buy stuff if you are a prepper and you believe there is a danger of pandemic and catching the disease in crowded areas?
Well, there is sense only if you are not stocked already, and then you are not a prepper, or you simply planned wrong.
I know, I know, there are always those “last runs” to get something important. I have been there too.
But there is a moment in time when you have to realize that you’ll have to work with what you have, which brings us to an even more important fact:
Yes, it might be bad, but it is what it is.
