killed or beaten and the trailers have been emptied of all contents. Big rigs carrying food are now escorted from point A to point B by at least three armed law enforcement teams per truck. Big rigs carrying things other than food are left to their own demise.
    The National Guard has been called to active duty over the entire USA. They're standing guard at highway exits, receiving docks of grocery stores, and other essential-living type businesses. This is still in the planning and staging process for many areas. Some areas have it fully in place while others are just getting started.
    Ten people are allowed into a grocery store with a limit of $50.00 per household to spend. After those ten leave, another ten are allowed in. There are National Guard troops, taking down names and addresses and walking the aisles to make sure food doesn't accidently find its way into someone's waistband or coat pocket.
    Food is being sold on a "cash only" basis. It doesn't matter if you have the biggest, baddest platinum card on earth. No cashy, no carry.
    You can visit the grocery store once a week and add $25.00 to your weekly limit if you, or someone in your household, volunteers to join the National Guard.
    N othing, except food, is allowed to be delivered to the big super stores. Super Walmart and stores like it can sell only food. You can’t buy clothing items, personal hygiene items, or frivolous items. All areas of the stores that aren't dedicated to food have been barricaded or blocked off and guarded by National Guard troops. They believe that the stores will be easier to guard under these restrictions.
    The pharmacies are giving a two week supply of all long term medications. You can't get your monthly supply , or your ninety day supply. You can only get enough to last two weeks. There's no walk in traffic allowed. You must go through the drive up window, or walk up to the door at pharmacies without drive ups. The pharmacy techs meet you there wearing full HAZMAT gear.
    You may buy one bottle of shampoo, one bar of soap, one container of deodorant, one tube of toothpaste, one box of feminine products or diapers, one four-pack of toilet paper, and one razor per pharmacy visit. You can visit once every two weeks. Your total cost per visit for these items is $150.00, and that's in addition to the cost of your medications. Again, no cashy, no carry. I don't need any of this stuff. I have toilet paper in storage and I just picked up my ninety day medicine supply a week ago when I took Nana to pick up hers and Pop's.
    The gas stations are closed. You must go to town hall to get your fuel. They have big gasoline tanker trucks there , and you can pull up to some kind of rigged gas pump and get $20.00 of fuel per vehicle, per week. You cannot fill gas cans or any other containers. There are several tanker trucks there. Each truck has a different "flavor" of fuel. You guessed it, no cashy, no carry.
    There's a small, temporary propane stand near the tankers. You can get your tank filled or buy a new tank already full. For some reason , there’s no limit on the propane, but one of the little 20 lb canisters costs $200.00. Yep, you heard me right. No cashy, no carry.
    There are many reports of people being bitten and becoming HDI's in the cities. They "eliminate" these monsters with a bullet through the head or a bashing of the skull. It seems that no other wound will permanently disable them.
    The bodies are being taken for observation and research , but there’s so many of them that it's taking hours, and sometimes days, to get them off the streets where they lie oozing brain matter and other body fluids.
    The authorities have no idea how many people and HDI's are hidden in little apartments, abandoned buildings, schools, and boarding houses throughout the city. There are plans to begin a door-to-door inspection , but it's taking a lot of time and manpower to clear the streets. They don't know when they'll get to the door-to-door
