    Now is also a good time to buy books.
    Survival, foraging, medical.
    Print print print off the web.

    Field guides. Military manuals.
    Improvised weapons and explosives books may come in handy in the future.

    Look up the Luty gun book, Specs for certain drop in trigger mods, etc.

    Also, look up natural medicine and build a bound book. Herbs. Mushrooms. Plants and animals. Everything have its uses.

    Do you know how to hand build a basic bow and arrow? How about an Atlatl?

    I’ve read conflicting reports on effectiveness but stocked up on some Mucinex to help with chest congestion, this in addition to regular cold meds.

    Whenever I take my wife out to the second hand shops she always spends time looking through the books. She's picked up quite a few medical books for around $1/each.

    Mucinex works by increasing the amount of fluid in your lungs. If you have a dry cough with nothing coming up it works a little.

    But it is the last thing I would take if I had pneumonia (too much fluid in the lungs).

    It is an Expectorant. It loosens (thins) mucus so coughing can clear your airway passages and your lungs can properly exchange oxygen and co2. Very important in pneumonia.

    Link for below information

    https://alsworldwide.org/care-and-su...ding-pneumonia

    Symptoms of both viral and bacterial pneumonia can be treated with expectorant (not suppressant) cough medicines like Mucinex or Robitussin decongestants or nasal sprays; increased hydration; inhaled medications like Mucomyst or Albuterol; and nebulizers using distilled water, saline solution....

    It works well. Take with water, be properly hydrated. I’d suggest taking it with food. I don’t like it on an empty stomach.

    We have a small pharmacy in the house, along with suture kits, TQ's, chest seals, bandages, celox, gloves etc.

    I have debated getting a decom needle but my wife would be the only one who knew how to use it so not sure how valid it would be.

    Will look into the stapler since thats quicker than sutures and I am pretty sure a monkey like me could use it.
