Long Position on Silver and Gold?

Just an fyi. You can't boil or bleach Ebola out of the water. If infects the water supply most everyone around is done.

Either you're intentionally trying to cause undue hysteria or you're stupid...this comment is 100% baseless and completely inaccurate.

Honestly, why would you say such a thing? What was your intent? I truthfully want to know.

Mmmm, I was wrong, sorry. I asked someone about water issues and just believed the answer that is it. Posted that while I was looking around to see how much some cheap water storage would cost if it seemed like this was going to get crazy. That was stupid.

Elimination of All Microorganisms, Viral, Bacteria, and Fungal Through Sterilization
Sterilization of hard, non-porous items can be accomplished by using high heat, an autoclave or steam sterilizer. Boiling heat-resilient items in water for 20 minutes will kill the Ebola virus as well. You can also use a bleach solution to kill the virus on hard surfaces, clothing and other items using a solution of 1:10 and a solution of 1:100.
A 1:100 bleach solution is used to disinfect:

• Surfaces
• Medical equipment
• Patient bedding
• Reusable protective clothing before it is laundered.

A 1:10 bleach solution is a strong solution used to disinfect excreta and bodies, and it is best this is left to medical professionals (CDC, 2014).
Washing your hands is always the first line of defense to protect yourself and others. Use bar soap that has been cut into chunks so you can use one piece and dispose of that piece. This prevents contamination of the entire bar of soap.
Use one hand to scrub the hand, forearm of the opposite hand, and then switch using the other hand and then rinse well. Discard the piece of soap safely and always use a disposable one-time use towel or let the hands air dry.
You cannot “catch” the virus by simply being in the same room with an infected person. However, you have to assume that if an infected person sneezes or coughs then micro mucus droplets can be transmitted through the air for short distances. If it is known or suspected a person has the disease use all available protection whenever in the same room.
Bedding must be destroyed by incineration or proper procedures followed for sterilization and the same applies to the patients clothing. Physical barriers must be erected to isolate patients. This would include protective fencing, to prevent people from entering, or heavy sheets placed over doorways to alert others that a person is isolated. Signs alerting others should be placed were easily seen as well.
Bathrooms used by the infected person must be isolated and not used by anyone else. Never enter a bathroom facility that an infected person has used without all protective clothing/gear in place.
The best protection for individuals is of course isolation. Avoid crowds, do not fly and stay out of airport terminals. Once again, the virus is not floating in the air, so if you have not come in physical contact with an animal or a human that has the disease then you cannot catch the virus.
It is likely but not proven that the virus is in the United States. Remember the mortality rate is directly related to the treatment of patients infected. Because there is no cure, treatment is therapeutic. Hydration levels must be maintained, blood pressure monitored closely and most patients have to be treated for secondary infections caused by the virus.
Excessive internal and external bleeding is common and a common cause of death from the virus. This must be treated promptly by professionals. Do not attempt to treat anyone at home that you suspect has the virus.

We use these test strips to measure the concentration of bleach. Indigo Chlorine test strips: http://www.indigo.com/test_strips/di...-hospital.html

We can make up any concentration of bleach we need, depending on intended purpose, and use the test strip to ensure our mixture is accurate.

For that matter, there's plenty of prepper threads too.

Asia indices were red and so are the European indices as displayed on Kitco. Gold and silver are both flat on the world spot, oil is under $80 a barrel.

DOW was down as much as 430 yesterday but closed -173 so it rebounded a good bit.
