If there’s one area of preparedness that I, admittedly, am woefully under-prepared for, it’s medical. Granted, my wife is a nurse, so I lean on her a lot for such things, but she’s busy and doesn’t stop to think about these things unless I ask her. And as much as I tend to focus on things like food and water, medical preparedness could be crucial to survival.
The video below discusses five areas of medical supplies that are likely to be affected (either in cost or availability) because of the coming oil shock. These include: hygiene supplies (e.g., baby diapers, feminine supplies), plastic eatery, generic drugs (about half come from India), wound care supplies (e.g., gauze, tape, and bunch more), first aid items, and plenty more. It’s a good video to review for general preparedness purposes, and even more so because of the coming “oil shock.”
