Without going into too much detail, i'm relocating to another house i have, not bugging out. Its a bit more isolated. My preps and supplies have come with me so i can keep an eye on any situation at arms length. I decided to up to Defcon 3 mainly due to the 21 day incubation period.
I am in a position which allows me to just break away anyway, my old place will be looked after so no worries there.
Probably complete my relocation in another 2 days.
I'll wait for all this to blow over .... If nothing happens then nothing happens.....i'll return in Jun time maybe.

Blimey, that's an extremely tenuous reference to say the least! :lol:

Extremely tenuous to say the least! :lol:
Its relevant, honest - the thread I quoted from American Preppers Network quoted nicotine patches, gum, etc, as being of value once symptoms started. And I'd no idea there *was* liquid nicotine, let alone that it was that dangerous! It all helps spread knowledge!

** it only let me do 3 embedded quotes, hope it all still makes sense!

The science of it all went completely over my head to be honest but if I got the gist of it (and I'm really not sure I have) then Nicotine suppresses some sort of "over reaction" of the body to Ebola which is beneficial(????).

I think Decaff was just warning about the dangers of self medicating Nicotine, though I must admit that I've never heard of anyone overdosing on it.

Wow..... Not heard the nicotine thing before.

I will say that yes indeed you have to be so very careful there.

I'm a Yank that had used oral tobbacco much of my time in the Army. I am talking about the loose tobbacco you put between cheek and gum. Not the type you chew.

The stuff I used in the end was seriously strong.

Off and on I get weak and use something like it, that you can buy in many Asian Markets.

A few brave souls have asked me to let them try it. Without fail they have stood it for less than a minute before spitting it out. Some got sick and all were VERY dizzy.

Pure nicotine will mess you up in a serious way.
I don't do politics or religion. Seen to many people die because of these.

I post to contribute so take as you see fit. My way is not the only way.

Cheers

Just found an interesting article in The Guardian about avoiding infection. They're not usually a paper that prides itself on towing the government line, so its all the more interesting: http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/o ... hing-ebola
especially about sweat and saliva.

Sorry for confusing post there!! I was replying to the post saying nicotine could be used medically! But pure nicotine is a poison and I didn't want anyone to end up ill!. I can't post links on my tablet, will find for you later when on PC. So sorry if panicked anyone! :oops:
