Do you have short term memory loss? Did i say CA has shortage of food?
Let me repeat this...again. There is a shortage of TP, wipes, sanitizer, canned food, and nonperishable food. Fresh and perishable food are still available, but definitely not as plentiful like before.
Ask me how i know all that.
You're wasting your time...he is either thick as a brick or just playing us at this point. No other explanation possible.
Stop being an *****. You don't live in my area. NONE of those things were available as of a couple days ago.
Bull. I ordered TP from Target.com a few days. Ago. I saw it in grocery store yesterday. It's available.

And what mask? Surgical masks are useless. The only masks that work are only usable if you're trained in their application and replace every few minutes. You might as well wear a Halloween mask.
There is no reason to wear a mask unless you're close to potential infected and you know exactly what you're doing.

So it hasn't hit your area yet.
Here in WA you can't get any such paper products unless you physically get to that aisle within 5 minutes of opening. The entire meat section is wiped out of everything...but the vegan meat substitutes. All non-perishables are gone.
They say wearing a mask is useful if you are infected to avoid spreading. But there's really no way to know if you are infected and being a spreader. So clearly, wearing one pre-emptively would be useful. If you did test positive, where would you get a mask now? It really is just a supply issue and rationing guidelines, not really a message about effectiveness.
Why do you think Covid-19 will affect grocery stores? No one has answered this question. It will affect your health and 401k and maybe your job, but you can still get your Fruity Pebbles.

I don't believe this, for a second. You also don't have Target.com, Walmart.com or Amazon.com either? You want me to send you TP and meat?

You didn't get the memo?
If you have no problem getting TP or whatever item in your city, then other cities 2000 miles away should not have a problem either.
LOL - Fruit and Veg is hardly prepping, and my local shops are fine, it's mainly big supermarkets and places like Costco that tend to attract panic buyers.
Large Supermarkets have now brought in measures restricting certain itels to three per customer.
I wouldn't be surprised if the so-called "preppers" weren't just as frantic as many others, trying to stock up on even more goods. The behavioral traits that drive them to be preppers or hoarders in the first place, might be magnified.
Of course.
No harm in getting just a little more ... and a little more ... and a little more ...
