I just heard that Emergency Essentials has some Iosat Potassium Iodide Tablets [4] in transit that are scheduled to arrive early next week. They wrote: “After we have filled all backorders, a limited quantity of additional tablets will be available. Order today and you’ll be put into the queue for this shipment.
