I have no anxiety about actually catching the coronavirus. If it happens, it happens. It'll be no worse than when I got the swine flu back in the day.
The issue is the people acting like this is the end of the world. Locally there are a few cases of it, and they've shut down a school corp. I heard there were shortages of things, so I decided to stop by Sams Club to grab some TP just to make sure I had some so I wouldn't run out.
As soon as I walked in they had pallets of water at the entry points. Nearly every cart I saw had two cases of water in it. When I got back to the actual bottled water section, I've never seen so many people shopping it before.
There was no toilet paper. The paper towels had a sign limit of 2, and were gone.
Decided to go to Costco, NO TOILET PAPER. They had paper towels in its place. Also NO BOTTLED WATER. An enter aisle of top stock was empty of I'd assume cleaning products.
Tried amazon, limited selection and way overpriced. Target online showed limited quantities, but I was able to order for delivery.
People acting this insane is making myself, as someone who deals with generalized anxiety, beyond anxious. I had to leave work early because I was having such bad anxiety. I didn't even worry about wiping down my cart, so it's not that I'm worried about catching it, but why are people stocking up on this stuff?
