No. And it drives me nuts that local people keep saying that it’s fine to open up as long as vulnerable people like me stay home and don’t go into stores, but everything that’s scarce requires in store pickup and isn’t available for curbside (ex: locally, for me that’s most soap, hand sanitizer, most cleaners - the other day I couldn’t even do a curbside pick up for a method all purpose cleaner that isn’t a disinfectant - it said I had to go inside). H looks when he goes shopping, but we’re limiting his exposure as much as we can because of my health issues. Same situation here. I’m very high risk from complications and haven’t been into a store since before lockdown March 13. It’s so frustrating. DH did find Odoban at Sam’s Club. It’s a disinfectant. And I have bleach so I have stuff to clean but would like some wipes. I have had luck finding hand sanitizer online recently at Bath and Body Works. I’ve also seen Hempz brand on a few sites. I also ordered Method foaming hand soap refills on Amazon last week. The Bath and Body Works hand sanitizer triggers migraines for me. I’m not out of hand sanitizer yet, but it drives me nuts that there’s some in stock so many places but only if I go inside. I haven’t had luck on amazon, but the method foaming hand soap refills are going in and out of stock at Target, Bed Bath and Beyond, and Walmart, so if you run out you might find some there. I was able to get bleach from Walmart and hydrogen peroxide from Target.

I got some old navy masks today and the child size fits me better than the adult size. I knew I had a small head but my gosh. Luckily DS has some from his pack of 10 that he is willing to give me. Lol.

I got Clorox wipes from Walmart online a bit back. I have yet to see any I'm stores since March. I've found spray Lysol once and Clorox spray twice now, but it's always like only a couple on the barren shelf. It's a rarity for sure. Anytime I see some though I grab one. I've never been a hoarder but man, the lack of real cleaning supplies being available makes me uncomfortable.

betty I was able to get wipes by asking my Target what day they normally came in. But my neighbor got some delivered from ordering through the Kroger app.

Has anyone been able to find Lysol/Clorox wipes recently? I can get Clorox wipes and Target brand at my local target. They don’t sell them online though. I haven’t seen a can of Lysol disinfectant spray since this all started though.

I just check several times a day and eventually they pop up in a few days. If you still can't find some by fall let me know

If you still can't find some by fall let me know I got a four pack of Odoban spray on Amazon like a month ago, so I'm honestly all set. Just being a weirdo and hoarding slowly, lol.

Apparently “stage 4” lockdown will be announced here today or tomorrow, people are losing their minds because they think it will be like New Zealand’s one. But we got an email Friday night from the chief health officer saying schools are totes low risk to be in, so no way schools are gonna close like they did in NZ.

School is set to resume as normal in September, with grades 4-12 requiring masks. Numbers are low here still but I’m on the fence about sending DS. He’s 5 so it’s more for the social aspect than anything else. SS attends in Toronto and is going back, so he’ll be our biggest risk factor in terms of exposure. I feel like this is probably super dependent on region and the social circle makeup. I’m ready. If/when a second wave comes I trust that Ontario is going to do the right thing and shut it down again. I’m ready for that too.

Has anyone been able to find Lysol/Clorox wipes recently? Yes, at Target and Walmart. Wasn't really looking for them but was at both stores in the morning and they had some out. Here in our area, anyway, that seems to be the trick...to go first thing, or late at night when they're re-stocking. eta: have seen hand sanitizer regularly at CVS, Target and my local grocery store. Target actually has it in the school supply section, too.

I've never been a hoarder but man, the lack of real cleaning supplies being available makes me uncomfortable. I got 3 of the larger size Clorox wipes at walmart today. They were on a lower shelf looked empty. There were a bunch way in the back. I was down to my last container at home and I need to send some to school with my DD in two weeks- so it was a good find. I *think* our school is well planned with cleaning protocols, but I plan to email her teacher from time to to see if there is anything she needs. I want to stock up so I have stuff to send. I’m pretty with hand sanitizer and disinfecting sprays - but it’s the wipes that are still hard to come by (but so much easier for day time use for teachers!)

The wife of a former coworker just shared on FB that that video of America’s Frontline Doctors was still on a different website. How can anyone believe this shit? This was what she wrote. Her husband (my former coworker) seems normal enough, so I’m just stumped. “I finally watched the viral video of these doctors speaking up about what they have personally seen regarding covid. Had to look it up on bitchute.com because it had been taken down from FB, YouTube & Twitter. That’s how you know it’s good! 😂 if you want to check out the video just go to bitchute.com and search for “America’s Frontline Doctors”. The message was so hopeful it’s a shame they are being censored. Also here’s the transcript: covidtruth.info/americas-frontline-doctors-scotus-press-conference-transcript/“I commented with the list of crazy claims that doctor has made, and said she shouldn’t be sharing that misinformation.

Has anyone been able to find Lysol/Clorox wipes recently? I actually just found one small container of Target brand disinfectant wipes this morning (1 per customer), but they did not have Lysol or Clorox brand. I've started buying one at a time when I go to Target (which isn't often). I'm going to keep two for myself and send the rest to school if/when it opens.

I’m donating blood for the first time ever today. One part small way to help in Covid, one part curious about antibody testing. I donated Monday and got my antibody results yesterday. I was vaguely disappointed that they were negative.

I did find suave sanitizer in the travel size section and it is the best of the new stuff.

I was vaguely disappointed that they were negative. I’m signed up to give on Wednesday for the very first time. I’m assuming the antibodies will be negative, but I’m very curious.

I'm thinking about donating. I am terrified of needles but 1.) I have the blood they want (O-) and 2.) I'm curious about antibodies too.

I’m a bit jealous you ever hit phase 4 (phase 1 since March here) I’m very glad we had the good sense not to open schools since here since we can’t contain it.
