Coronavirus (non political)

The stores are fucking crazy ,.................people need to calm the fuck down!

G1 I saw a picture from I believe Lawrencetown(?) NY at a Costco before the doors open there was a jaw dropping line of people waiting that ran throughout the parking lot.

Seriously, WTF!??

bottom line is they had a plan and were able to get ahead of things vs scrambling as we've done along with others

Like I said its much easier to prepare for 5.5 million V/S 300 plus million.

I'm going to sell toilet paper by the sheet on ebay. I'm having a max purchase of 62 sheets which I can mail in a standard envelop.

I get that, but we had no plan. Nothing. Caught completely with our pants down. In spite of infectious disease experts sounding the alarms for years. We can't even keep toilet paper in stock.

dude .. i just need regular groceries. I tend to go 3 times a week bc I have 3 great groceries stores within 5 miles of me.

Im not trying to stand in line for an hour for just chicken im cooking for dinner tonight.

Who the hell would have thought people would run out and buy toilet paper when this does not even give you the runs? I agree we need a system kind of like what we did after 9/11 but for infectious disease.

We HAD a system, trying not to go political but that system was dismantled and literally shut down in 2018 bc .. ya know.

The cuts started in 2018, as the White House focused on eliminating funding to Obama-era disease security programs. In March of that year, Rear Adm. Timothy Ziemer, whose job it was to lead the U.S. response in the event of a pandemic, abruptly left the administration and his global health security team was disbanded.

That same year, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) was forced to slash its efforts to prevent global disease outbreak by 80% as its funding for the program began to run out.

My local Costco has a line just to get in the door too.

The Food Lion up the street is sold out of TP, paper towels, but don't worry nobody's buying the hand soap!

There is a reason for that and it has nothing to do with a virus. It's the way your grocery store(stores) do business.

Same here I went to three different stores today for normal stuff and the stores were out. The virus isn't in our drinking water but bottled water is all gone as is toilet paper and ....chicken,not steaks or pork chops but no fucking chicken to be found anywhere!
