>But the worst thing that could happen is that you’re seen doing something about the coronavirus before you’re given permission to.
>I’ll defend this statement in a minute, but first of all: I am now giving you permission to do something about COVID-19. You have permission to read up on the symptoms of the disease and how it spreads. Educate yourself on the best ways to avoid it. Stock up on obvious essentials such as food, water, soap, and medicine, as well as less obvious things like oxygen saturation monitors so you know if you need emergency care once you’re sick. You should decide ahead of time what your triggers are for changing your routines or turtling up at home.
>In fact, you should go do all those things before reading the rest of the post. I am not going to provide any more factual justifications for preparing. If you’ve been following the news and doing the research, you can decide for yourself. And if instead of factual justification you’ve been following the cues of people around you to decide when it’s socially acceptable to prep for a pandemic, then all you need to know is that I’ve already put my reputation on the line as a coronaprepper.

Imagine giving this much of a fuck about what other people think of you, and whether or not it's socially acceptable do something (like prepping), and still considering yourself a "rationalist" (whatever that means).
And why stock up on *water*?
Every bugman on Twitter worked up into a frenzy over COVID-19 buys water, as if their municipal water supply is maintained by 70-years-olds with COPD and Type II diabetes soon to be claimed by the virus.
