I was like wow, then I realized she might work at a nursing home or day care or something. I don't know if it's the media overblowing things or people overreacting to the information they are given or a combination of things. I just hope this thing passes quickly, so we can get on with the important things like Bengal football! WhoDey!
Yoy have people doomsday prepping their way into 6 months worth of toilet paper for a virus that may or may not cause the bulk of its problems for 6-8 weeks.
And TP is the last thing you want if you think Coivd19 = The Walking Dead. Rations, non-perishables. Twinkies, canned food, rubbing alcohol, high proof licquer. That's the type of stuff what you'd actually want if you think the world is ending.
But TP? We survived without TP until the late 1800's. If you run out grab a branch, or turn on your runnjng water and spread them cheeks.![]()
And the biggest problem is that you get a select few that panic about TP and hand sanitizer and buy way too much, which then causes more slightly less dumb people to panic and do the same, in fear of running out. And then that continues until you have about 10% of the population hoarding 100% of the readily available supply. Then an empty shelf causes all hell to break loose, as if TP production has ceased forever.
Stupidity and hysteria breed more stupidity and hysteria. Stupid people are as much as a virus as the virus itself. They spread their idiocy until it affects everyone.
