I have had issues with this in the past. My prescriptions don't all run out at the same time even though I take them all every day. I have tried to get them all on the same schedule - Walgreens has called me several times to ask if I want to do so - but it has never happened. I can't always be certain of having an extra 2 weeks of meds available. It makes me crazy. Every time we go on vacation - which is at least twice a year - I have to deal with this stupidity.

I studied abroad for 6 months and brought all my meds with me from the start. All you have to do is talk to your doctor and explain why you need the extra two weeks and they should write you a script for two weeks worth. If you cant afford to pay for them out of pocket, call your insurance company and do the same with them.

I tried posting here a suggestion to ban posting of general Corona Virus material here but the Moderator moved it to the CC Help board.... lots of good it will be there.

 

Recommend we all start flagging posts that are off topic to help the moderator move them.   Just click the "Report" button at the top of a post.

While I can understand that the fear over Covid-19 can get annoying, especially on some of the more fear-mongering threads, it is still an issue that impacts our cruising, and therefore a valid topic. 

Some threads (like this one) that are rationally discussing effective precautions we can take while still being able to cruise are actually helpful. It certainly reminded me to update my packing list on the off chance we could be quarantined.

Just because you aren't concerned doesn't mean it isn't a valid discussion.
