I just did a quick inventory of supplies. If I had to I could survive for 90+ days as long as I restrict hand washing to 40-50 times a day and hand sanitizing to 25 times a day,. I've got TP and wet wipes as well as all my meds are well stocked, shaving supplies and bath soap for at least a year. But then again I just did a major replenishment run about 3 weeks ago and it a 1st of the quarter meds sent from the VA.

There are places that I understand the phenomenon- near a cruise ship or airport depot. They say each individual location should check for LOCAL ALERTS. To me it is bullshit to panic over 1 or 2 cases in a WHOLE state - let's focus on where there is a need - not allow herd mentality to make a problem WORSE !!!
When handing out checks ; or at counters ; at public places folks are putting out hand sanitizers( ok ,cool- it's still flu season)- but hoarding is a third world approach that harms the population; is counter productive; is basically a regressive selfish impulse.
Our legislators aren't in session- so they won't vote on calling in emergency funding till late March- they are on vacation( maybe in ISOLATION ???) That is how a rationing gov. body
works- the slack taken up by public institutions! There have been a handful of cases in New Jersey.Remember this has happened 3or4 times in the recent past .We should be improving on our handling of outbreaks , no?

I live in Northern Ireland and did a Supermarket shop last Wednesday (3 days ago), I just did a normal shop, including a 9 pack of toilet rolls. Asda seemed to have normal stock of everything except hand sanitizers (which I wasn’t going to buy anyway). However, I’m told by a friend that since then, there has been a massive increase in the number of people panic buying, and that today she had a hard job finding a parking space and then it was pandemonium inside with people piling their trollies high, and long queues at the checkouts. So yes...it seems to be pretty worldwide this panic buying, lucky I’ve got plenty food in the freezer and store cupboard.

Yeah, they are. In tri cities at least. In Everett, not so much.

Not here yet

Not that I have noticed in NW New Jersey area. They do first forcast of heavy snow which hasnt happened in am couple years.

Where i live here in Ontario No,,Our local Military base has been hosting quarnteed Canadians who have bee flown back from China , but no one has shown positive after two weeks and they have gone thru about 400 people here,Town is just taking it in stride like any other military exercise

They are, mostly on anything marked "antibacterial". The soap isles, ironically, seem just fine.

All cleaners are gone.

Yep. Our Krogers is limiting things like hand sanitizer to a maximum of 5 per checkout.

When I did my routine shopping the other day, things looked pretty normal in the store. Good friends, however panic-shopped, stocking up for what they called "the great depopulation". I don't get it. A 2-3% mortality rate simply does not warrant this sort of reaction.

But Shitler said it was all a hoax.

Not yet here in NW Philly

Look at the upside: For the 2/3 of American's that are overweight or obese, three or four weeks of forced fasting would do them well.

yes, it is happening in Hawaii.... just wish I bought out stock in Gojo, proctor & Gamble, Johnson & Johnsons, Pfizer, Scott, kimberly clark, etc when it first started. 9 deaths in all of the U.S. this is government terrorism. more people have died from the common cold and other illnesses. Which government officials have stock in these companies. Anyone remember when Michael Taylor monsanto lawyer
became the lawyer of the FDA?

I warned people to buy MRE's, but they all said I was crazy. I am crazy, but I'm not gonna be hungry and crazy.

I prepared for the destruction of the Earth when the orange buttmonkey went to the White House.
And I always have two thousand gallons of water in the pond.
So, Ptttttttttt!!

Yes it is but I usually buy in bulk anyway so I'm fully stocked regarding toiletries, food, Lysol disinfectant, etc...

Same thing happening here. I can only conclude that these people must really be full of crap.
