Steps you can take to improve your odds during nuclear war

I want to make a separate thread to post the information I have collected from various sources.
Most of the work has been done regarding what the average civilian can do to prepare for nuclear war. This work was primarily done by the G.I. Generation who had lived through total war. At one point the United States had an impressive Civil Defense that was prepared for nuclear war but as the generation that saw total war with their own eyes faded away, these institutions have been neglected and are no longer what they once were.
The information is still there if you seek it out. You will have to do this on your own and its almost unnatural as you are going against the cycle. You will feel that researching this subject and spending money on it gives you a weird, paranoid feeling. This is because you are operating outside of the natural 80 year cycle which is pretty much against man's nature.
None of this is my original work, I have just collected obscure and old information that at one point was considered vital by the G.I. Generation.
The first resource is an excellent book that is cheap. This book is designed to be easy to read and kept on your bookshelf until the time comes when you need it.
Nuclear War Survival Skills by Cresson H. Kearny. This book is readily available and cheap. When the war starts you will not be able to depend on your government to protect you. Nobody will be coming to save you. This book covers almost everything - from what foods to store and how much you will need to consume to what to stock for an infant. The book has several fallout shelter ideas that have been proven to protect against radiation. Some of these designs are similar to simple tunnels that saved Japanese lives at Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Next, you should keep a good store of Potassium Iodide. This is a cheap and effective way to protect your thyroid from accumulating nuclear radiation. Fallout from an overseas nuclear war may blow to where you live and this simple medication could save you or your family from getting thyroid cancer. You could order decades worth of Potassium Iodide right now for pretty cheap.
Buy a quality Geiger Counter. Whenever a nuclear bomb explodes anywhere in the world depending on the strength and materials, the fallout could be blown into the stratosphere and be brought down by precipitation anywhere in the world. Without a Geiger Counter you are completely defenseless and blind as you cannot see the radiation.
If you thought people panicked and were unprepared by COVID-19, just wait until radioactive fallout is in the air. How many Geiger Counters does your local government have? How many have been calibrated recently? Do you think your local government is prepared to deal with radiation? Once again, due to the nature of the Fourth Turning the preparations made by previous generations are gone. Nobody will be coming to save you.
Learn to use the Geiger Counter and understand how much radiation you can be exposed to and what this means. Its not that complicated and protecting yourself may be as simple as not leaving your house for a couple of weeks.
These are things you can get today and beat the rush. Think of trying to buy toilet paper during the COVID-19 panic. Now imagine that panic spreading to other areas when the war starts.
