truck rack for pandemic supplies

During a bird flu pandemic one big problem will be moving supplies from place to place. That's because truck drivers, barge handlers, airplane pilots, dockworkers and railroad workers will be just as sick as everyone else. Not to mention the people who work in warehouses, dispatchers and so on. There's a large infrastructure of our national economy which is devoted to nothing else except moving goods from one place to another. Whether the goods come originally from other countries off of ships or freight airplanes or from within the U.S., sheer distribution is going to be a major bottleneck for necessities such as food, clean water, gasoline and medical supplies. So if you have a pickup or some one other way to help transport goods by installing a truck rack it'd be a good idea to get that done now.

Stock up on dog supplies too

One thing to keep in mind when you're making plans to get through a bird flu pandemic or any other disaster natural or man-made is, if you have a pet dog, dog supplies. After all, your pet has to eat too. It's especially important that you not let your dog run loose in the event of a bird flu pandemic, because it's possible that dogs can catch the virus also, which means they can spread it. Which means that to protect yourself and your family you must not let a dog run wild. While out of your site it may sniff at or even eat dead birds, run around with packs of other dogs that may have the virus from each other or their possibly former owners, or may be in contact with people carrying the virus. Then your dog could carry it back to you and your family.
