An ambulance maybe.

People are using bandanas or scarves. Some are getting more desperate.
Newborn diapers and a bit of string can be used as well as other garments.

Those bright red bras are only sold around Valentine's Day in the shops where men fear to tread.
 
He's probably a former stagehand who picked up the various bits of underclothing tossed onstage by women at Elvis and Tom Jones concerts.
He's been hoarding them ever since, and is about to cash in big and fulfill all his unfulfilled dreams. :roflmao:

Sounds like the creepy guy who lives under the stairs. :eek:
 
An ambulance maybe, trade for some pizza slices.

Sometimes you just need to improvise...

Sorry, some of us have to be "out there" driving the trucks that bring hand sanitizer and TP to your local outlet.
Along with tampons, tacos, t-bones, Ensure, (sounds like a helluva meal, no?) and a bevy of useful and wanted products.
Driving solo is equivalent to "mobile quarantine"! :)

Keep on truckin' brother - your services are HIGHLY valued! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

On a semi-related (pun intended!) note, a few years after the relationships ended, I realized that my first two girlfriends were both truck driver's daughters. ;) I have no idea what Freud would have had to say about that...
 
A friend of mine used (maybe still does) those on his drums to dampen resonances. Really.

In the studio, in the 70's, we engineers went from taping wallets on tomtoms to using "maxipads".
Came with their own tape and stayed on forever.
Thank God, better made shells, and a generation of drummers who actually knew how to tune, let us finally open the gates and record their true glory.
2 heads and all!!! :thumbsup:
 
So far we're not seeing that here, but I know it's happening in other areas. I think people where I live are taking it pretty seriously. It's sad for those who aren't; they'll be carrying it back to their families and will be the in the bulk of the first wave of casualties when things get bad. But if they won't take precautions I'm not sure what else can be done for them.
If national quarantine and curfew was called then more people who were too stupid to protect themselves would have to obey the law and stay in.
