What You Need to Do to Survive a Pandemic BEFORE a Panic Starts

Pay attention to the details in this article.  Sarah Menet and John Koyle both warn us of a long, hard winter that will just precede the tribulation in the US.
Sarah mentions that events in the US will deteriorate rapidly in the year following the long winter.
Remember that record winter that we just came out of?   Here are some links to remind you...


     Sarah warns that the year following the long winter, we would begin to see a disease spread beginning in four major cities: New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Salt Lake City. 
 In my previous post I compared Sarah's description of the plague and the clinical description of Ebola. It seems clear that the disease she is describing is some variation of Hemorrhagic Fever.  
Now that we are hearing rumors of Ebola spreading to the US, I encourage all to get your emergency food and water NOW!  
It takes about 3 months for a pandemic to run its course. Get at least 3 months supply of food and water.  1 Gallon of water per person/day.  Try to get food that can be prepared without power or a source of heat. Get plenty of bleach.  It is cheap and is the perfect antibacterial. 
Remember that Sarah said that economic collapse and power failure would accompany the spread of this disease.  Get prepared now!  If this spreads fast, we may all be quarantined in our homes for the duration.

The Ebola virus is spreading and no one in any position of authority is releasing information to the public about how serious of a contagion this is.
It was just a few weeks ago that the CDC and mainstream media claimed it wouldn’t make it to U.S. shores, but as of this morning, reports are flowing in from all over the country from hospitals that have admitted patients who recently traveled to Africa and are showing possible symptoms of the deadly virus.
In Nigeria, where there have only been a couple of deaths reported officially, the medical community has formally requested help in the form of experimental serums from the United States, suggesting things are much worse there than are being reported.
Moreover, the World Health Organization reports an explosion in confirmed cases over the last 48 hours.
An analysis of confirmed cases from Joshua Krause at The Daily Sheeple suggests that, while the virus almost died out back in April, it is now back with a vengeance and growing at a seemingly exponential rate.
What’s most bizarre and frustrating about all of this is that neither the U.S. government or the Centers for Disease Control have provided any actionable information or advice to the American public. They maintain that they have the facilities to stop any such outbreak and continue to tout the narrative that there is nothing to fear, because they have it all under control.
Should even one single case pop up in a random U.S. city, that narrative will fall apart instantly. If someone in Georgia, Ohio, New York or any other state checked themselves into a hospital and are found to be infected with Ebola it will prove without a shadow of a doubt that all CDC containment efforts have failed.
In such an instance where Ebola is found to be in the “wild” anywhere in the continental United States you can be certain that panic will follow.
Take a look at the following photo. It was taken last week in Toledo about an hour after the city announced that their water supply had been contaminated with toxins:
What You Need to Do to Survive Ebola BEFORE the Panic Starts toledo
Notice how every drop of pure H2O has been removed from the shelves.
Imagine for a moment what grocery store shelves, pharmacies and hardware supply stores are going to look like within 12 hours of an Ebola infection or outbreak being announced on U.S. soil.
Things will happen fast.
Now, for all we know the CDC’s containment efforts are successful, and perhaps Ebola will be stopped in its tracks. But being naturally skeptical of our government’s abilities to mitigate such a virus, especially given the lack of any actual information from the CDC or government, we must assume that Ebola will eventually start popping up in the United States.
When it does, the CDC and Homeland Security will likely announce a number of precautions that we need to take. Those precautions are going to include supply lists and strategies.
Guess what 300 million Americans are going to do all at once when those supply lists and recommendation are announced? ( Look no further than the DHS Fukushima radiation announcement and how it affected the supply and price of potassium iodide)
Here’s the bottom line: If you don’t have your supplies before emergency announcements hit the airwaves, then plan on going without.
If you want to take action ahead of millions of panicked Americans, then we urge you to follow the recommendations below. They come from informed sources and will be very similar to what the government will recommend in the event of an Ebola outbreak or pandemic emergency.
Emergency services professional Tess Pennington, author of The Prepper’s Blueprint, explains that the government will have specific protocols to follow on local, state and federal levels, and they’ll include widespread shutdowns:
Understanding that our lives will change drastically if the population is faced with a pandemic and being prepared for this can help you make better choices toward the well being of your family. Some changes could be:
-Challenges or shut downs of business commerce
-Breakdown of our basic infrastructure: communications, mass transportation, supply chains
-Payroll service interruptions
-Staffing shortages in hospitals and medical clinics
-Interruptions in public facilities – Schools, workplaces may close, and public gatherings such as sporting events or worship services may close temporarily.
-Government mandated voluntary or involuntary home quarantine.
Essentially, once this happens the whole system could potentially go into lock-down.
The Organic Prepper and author of The Pantry Primer says that in this environment that you must take the No One Goes Out, No One Comes In approach in order to be absolutely certain no one in your household is exposed.
I know this sounds harsh, but there are to be no exceptions. If you make exceptions, you might as well go wrestle with runny-nosed strangers at the local Wal-Mart and then come home and hug your children, because it’s the same thing.
Once you have gone into lockdown mode, that means that the supplies you have on hand are the supplies you have to see you through.  You can’t run out to the store and get something you’ve forgotten.
That means if a family member shows up, they have to go into quarantine for at least 4 weeks, during which time they are not allowed access to the home or family, nor are they allowed to go out in public.  Set up an area on your property that is far from your home for them to hang out for their month of quarantine. If at the end of the month they are presenting no symptoms, then they can come in.
It sadly means that you may be forced to turn someone away if they are ill, because to help them means to risk your family.
Now is the time to plan with your preparedness group how you intend to handle the situation. Will you shelter together, in the same location, and reserve a secondary location to retreat to if the situation worsens further or if someone becomes ill? Will you shelter separately because of the nature of the emergency?  Decide together on what event and proximity will trigger you to go into lockdown mode. Make your plan and stick to it, regardless of pressure from those who think you are over-reacting, the school that your children have stopped attending, and any other external influences. If you’ve decided that there is a great enough risk that you need to go into lockdown, you must adhere to your plan.
Here’s a basic supply list, provided by The Organic Prepper, of items you’ll need to weather a pandemic emergency:
Those items should help with prevention, especially if you take the advice of locking down and staying home.

However, we must assume that some of us, for whatever reason, will still have to make our way out into public. And with that assumption, we must also expect the absolute worst case scenario – an infection or suspected infection within in our own ranks.
If you must venture outside then take a look at what medical personnel are sporting in highly contagious environments:

If you’re forced to exit your home, you’re going to want to be fully protected, and that includes covering your hands, eyes, nose, and mouth.
In addition to the N-95 respirator masks mentioned above, you may also consider upgrading to the more expensive N-100 respirators recommended by the World Health Organization.
Or, go with a full facemask. Insofar as your preparedness efforts are concerned, you may also be able to kill two birds with one stone here and go with a full face mask that includes NBC (Nuclear, Biological, Chemical) protection like the US-made NATO SGE 400/3 Military Gas Mask.  If going with such a mask, be sure to include some NBC filters.
For protection inside of your home, Tess Pennington of Ready Nutrition recommends building a sick room that can be used to isolate suspected infections or even to be used as a quarantine/observation area for friends and family who may be coming to your home as part of your group lockdown plan.
Building a sick room may include supplies like:
The takeaway here is this: You cannot depend on the government to give you accurate information until it is too late. Moreover, emergency services personnel will be overwhelmed and you will have only yourself and those in your lockdown group to depend on.
Plan on no outside help.
That means you need to have food, water, and other supplies on hand. Additionally, if we have a widespread emergency that brings down the commerce system you may need to head out to barter and trade with others for necessary supplies that may have been overlooked. In such an instance you may also want to have some precious metals on hand for trade. The Silver.com price for silver today is about $20. It may be a good time to stock up on some emergency ‘cash’ like silver eagles or pre-1965 US quarters and half-dollars which contain 90% silver. These trade instruments are recognizable and may come in handy.
Prepare now, because as we have seen with disasters past, waiting to do so until after the announcements are made will be too late.

    Another variation of Hemorrhagic fever is one of the Smallpox viruses which is quite deadly and fits the blister part of the vision. Weapon grade is so fast that it doesn't blister... it just hemorrhages.

  3. One should always learn to react to any situation rather than getting panic. It is really important to know things well.

  4. This is very interesting and informative post. Thanks for sharing and pointing out the good and bad of coming severe winters. We all should be prepared to face it.

  5. First you need to be Temple worthy and Temple attending, because Joseph Smith said this is what qualifies you for the special protections promised to Christ's elect. Doesn't matter if you think you're one of His elect, what matters here is if He thinks you are.
    Then, you must be studying prophecy and following all available legit news, not legacy media. This way you'll know when to take your year's supply of food to one of the places Christ has revealed will be safe.
    I won't tell you where any are, tho I know of 3, but I will tell you what that looks like for me. An old, EMP-proofed Suburban on 33"BFG KM3s, with a dual fuel kit to also run on propane, towing an enclosed trailer based on the back half of an old 3/4ton longbed pickup on 33" BFG KM3s, towing an old 20' RV camper trailer on 33" BFG KM3s. Towing doubles is legal here. The RV trailer has electric trailer brakes. The camping gear is in the rear trailer, the food will go in the other trailer.
    Why the 33" KM3s? 33s because overlanders agree it's all you need, a good minimum. KM3s because there may not be an opportunity to change a flat, so don't risk getting a flat. I got mine just before Mickey Thompson released their new Baja tires, those are the only thing that might equal the KM3s.
