I put myself in semi-quarantine two weeks ago, as did my girlfriend. As a biology major back in the 1970's, I understood what the doctors were saying, and I can't afford to get COVID-19. Flu goes to my chest every time, so this wouldn't be so great. I talked my girlfriend into taking a week vacation and then she got her boss to let her work from home. I was worried about my Airbnb in downtown Seattle, but everyone cancelled.

The only thing I did that people might not think about, is I bought a lot of broccoli, carrots and asparagus two weeks ago, and dehydrated it. We have not had any shortages of those items so I will probably dehydrate more broccoli since it's cheap, and make dried vegetable packages to distribute to people if things get bad. Bell peppers have twice as much Vitamin C as oranges, so I'll dehydrate those as well.

You can still buy dehydrators on Amazon - I highly recommend it.

Fortunately hoarding is not that bad in Tacoma, even though we have a lot of cases in the area. We can even buy toilet paper.
