[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand why people are stocking up.

Most people in the world will get this within the year. Symptoms will be like most seasonal respiratory viruses, with corresponding severity for elderly and immunocompromised. It has been shown to be mild in children.

The only thing I can think is that they will close schools and other public places of gathering to slow the spread by a few days so resources can be better allocated. But that just means you should stock some stuff for your kids so they won’t be bored. I will start with basic scientific books about germs, books about working together with other people to solve problems, and books like Chicken Little about not believing anything and everything you hear.[/quote]

We now have more cases than anyone else.  We have over 1k deaths.  Looks like it wasn’t “chicken little” after all.  Are you ready to apologize?  Don’t you wish you had taken our advice and stocked up last month?[/quote]

No, all of you hoarder are part of the problem.  Don’t you get it?  You don’t need a years worth of TP and various other stockpiles of food and essentials.  Grocery stores aren’t closing.  Despite your insanity, they remain reasonably stocked and you can go in when you need to.  Sure, buy more and buy smarter so you can make infrequent trips, but to stockpile and hoard and behave like you can’t leave your house for months isn’t necessary.  If you hoarded, I truly hope you don’t show your face in a single store for months.  If you stop in to get more “fresh produce” after 2 weeks. your hoarding efforts were for nothing.[/quote]
