Getting Prepped For Flu Season ( or any other disease, virus, ebola)

Just got a package of some supplies for getting prepped for cold and flu season. Or any other type of virus, etc.

Today , we got some goggles and a box of 20 respirator face mask.

I also had gotten some gloves the other day. Some of those Nitrile gloves and then some thicker gauntlet style to put on over them. A pretty good start on the flu & cold survival kit. I also have stocked up on a bunch of different medicines , cough drops, tylenol, pepto, and any thing else that I could think of. Each week I have been buying and focusing on one thing medical wise. Now have a pretty good stockpile. Should last the whole cold season.

Surviving Ebola - Prepping For Lockdown: How to Prepare and Survive in the Event of an Ebola Epidemic. was a free kindle book when this post was written.

If an Ebola epidemic broke out near your home, would you and your family be prepared?

It seems as though just a few months ago, Ebola was a small threat to just a few countries half way around the world. The mere thought of Ebola coming to the western world seemed highly unlikely. Fast forward to current times and everyone’s worst fears have surfaced – Ebola is here, and we need to be prepared.

While an Ebola epidemic is unlikely to happen in the western world, it shouldn't be written off as a non-threat. In the event that this deadly virus does reach the borders of your neighborhood, you’ll have very little time – if any at all – to prepare for lock down.

In this “Surviving Ebola” guide, you’ll learn…

• The deadly reality surrounding Ebola


• How to protect you and your family against an Ebola infection

• When to go into Ebola “lockdown mode”


• How to prepare your home for an Ebola epidemic


• How to create an Ebola isolation room within your home


• ...and other information to help you prepare for an Ebola epidemic

Within this guide, “Surviving Ebola: Prepping for Lockdown”, you’ll be armed with a complete guide to preparing and surviving an Ebola epidemic in the event an outbreak occurs. Learn from the experts on what to expect and how to plan and prepare for one of the deadliest viruses known to man.

Purify Water By Distillation

Distillation is an extremely effective way to purify water. It is a process of boiling the water and then catching the water vapor as it condenses. It is very effective at removing all types of pathogens. Bacteria, Protozoa, and viruses. It also can do an excellent job at removing chemical contaminants.

The number one disadvantage of using distillation to purify water is that it takes a long time. It could take up to 6 hours to get one gallon of water. Which would use a lot of fuel. Maybe not a good idea during a disaster , when you might not have any electricity. There is always going to be plenty of wood to make an open fire to boil water.

Here is one way to do it without electricity:

1. Open fire, propane or gas stove.
2. Stainless Steel Boiler
3. Reflux column
4. Cold Water for the condenser

For distilling water, you do not need packing.
Here is the distillation process:

1. First fill the boiler with water. This can be the dirtiest of waters, rain or even county water.
2. Attach the column/tower to the boiler with whatever size clamp or connector to make sure you have a complete seal.
3. Hook water hoses to the condenser.
4. Place the distiller on top of the fire.
5. Bring the water to a boiling point.
6. As the steam enters up the tower/column it will go through the condenser and is converted into distilled drinkable water that comes out of this into a bowl or glass jug.
