    Same situation here although there is a shortage of supplies. I heard one >woman in Nanaimo complain that she had to make five different stops to get >everything she needed. Myself I found the limited quantities one can purchase >at one time to be a hinderance to the 'just stay home' message.

    Indeed it does.

    Hallo Mike!

    the limited quantities one can purchase at one time to be a
    hinderance to the 'just stay home' message.

    Indeed it does.

    I am sure we could find many to agree.

    Het leven is goed,
    Maurice

    I find it weird how many experts are all alround that "know" why or why not >masks do or don't work. I myself tend to believe that wearing a mask (whatever >type) basically decreases the propability of infecting others if you're >infected. However, viruses are so small that the best comparison I heard of yet
    goes like this: Wearing a mask for protection against viruses is like throwing >a golf ball against a soccer goals' net.

    Some folks here that are encouraging the wearing of masks in public are pointing out that you don't really know if you have it or not due to the incubation period. Wearing a mask means you are protecting others.

    It's not a bad idea. I have to deal with a lot of people at work on a daily basis so if I am going to the bank or a store I wear mask and gloves and then use sanitizer when I get back in the car. Mask protects you, gloves protect
    me.
