I'm recovering from an illness that in a 3rd world country, absent antibiotics, would have very possibly killed me.
Pretty humbling to consider that and it got me to thinking. Even some minor injuries left untreated could turn deadly. Additionally, unsanitary conditions develop rapidly as does disease thereafter. Common bone head injuries that many of us have encountered in life need to be mitigated against as well.
So once our economy fails, or whatever it is exactly we are preparing for, what are your preparations and plans to?:
-stay healthy
-get healthy if ill
-stay uninjured
-fix injuries
I don't have all the answers, that's why I'm posting. Some of the things I do keep on hand are:
-for sanitation: lots of large plastic bags, a good amount of bleach
-to prevent injuries: gloves, eye protection for each member of my party (eye injuries are underrated)
*I have the basic first aid supplies and a fair amount of training in the basics. What I am lacking in is serious medical supplies.
