Probably only takes a small percentage of twats panicking to clear shelves, making life that little bit more difficult to for the rest of us. And of course, supermarkets are afraid to tell people buying decades worth of dry goods (probably, some of them, in the hope of selling on for huge mark ups) ‘don’t be silly, put that back on the shelf’. These situations tell us a lot about basic character. We just have to remind ourselves that it is just a small number of people behaving like this, so we shouldn’t get depressed about the whole human race.
Sadly, it's not a small number of people. I was doing the weekly shop yesterday morning and more than half the trolleys at the checkout had more than one large pack of loo rolls and several areas of food such as pasta, soups, tinned goods were empty. One of the workers told me people were buying packs of 2 dozen tins as they were taking them off the trolley trying to fill shelves. All the talk of two week isolation is fuelling this stupidity...
Nice cartoon in one of the papers today. Bloke at the checkout with his trolley piled high with bog rolls. Tells the cashier "I'm buying this lot before some idiot stockpiles it."
Well let’s hope all these hoarders are especially vulnerable to the virus and drop dead, their fall cushioned by a thick carpet of big rolls
As expected, significant increases now being racked up daily. Only a matter of time before sport is behind closed doors...
I read somewhere that we're maybe 10-14 days behind Italy in cases etc. If so, the numbers are looking scary...
