Updated: Mar 29, 2026
As global cases of the COVID-19 virus increase daily, staying prepared is always a smart move. You should certainly stick to basic safety habits, such as avoiding large crowds, keeping your hands away from your face, and washing them completely. However, you also want to keep specific supplies stocked at home in case the outbreak escalates. A few ideas on this checklist might seem like they belong on a survivalist's wish list, such as an underground bunker, but you will also find highly practical goods for any emergency. This includes freeze dried meals that stay good for up to 25 years and a fully stocked first aid kit. Here are the top items to help you stay protected against the virus.
