Here’s another one to think about. You’re at work when you get a call from the school that there is an outbreak of some fast spreading, highly contagious, nasty virus and it’s possible one of your kids has it (they are showing symptoms). You need to get all your kids out of school and take them home right away so as not to infect anyone else. After getting your kids home, the Health Department calls and informs you that none of your family are to leave your home for the next two weeks. That is, assuming nobody else in the house comes down with the virus. If anyone else in the family gets sick, you could be quarantined for a month or more. No going to work, school, store, etc. No physical contact with anyone outside your family for the duration of the quarantine.
What preparations have you made or could you make for an extended quarantine situation? What are some trouble spots in preparing for a long term, at home, no outside contact survival time?
