So just went shopping today. No paper products or pasta. Everything else pretty much normal. It's really sad and pathetic that idiots are hoarding toilet paper. This behaviour has a snowballing effect because of more idiots. Now folks who are out and really need it can't get it. And then the cycle continues. Morons like this only exacerbates the problem because as stated above, more stupid people. I've all but given up on humanity. No worries for me though, it's almost gardening season...

I'm sorry, no
What people fail to understand is the magnitude of the logistics that it takes to keep a modern city supplied.
Faced with the prospect of a 2 week lockdown people go out to secure sufficient supplies for two weeks, this is entirely rational and understandable.
The problem is, everyone does it at the same time and the supply chain is simply not set up for that.
I am not saying they are not idiots, but for a different reason. Securing sufficient commodities for a projected shelter in place is NOT hoarding.
They are idiots for not maintaining a months supplies as a matter of course, or at the very least stocking up weeks ago when this all became obviously inevitable.
I believe it was Last of the V8s, correct me if I am wrong, that said 3 weeks ago "do it now".
I, of course, just had to slightly top up as I have been prepared for much worse than this since the mid 90s

NBA player who tested positive for covbull-19 has a message for his fans. He is feeling fine and playing video games. https://twitter.com/NBA/status/1238886687444471810By my calculations he has had Covbull for at least 5 full days, and he feels perfectly normal. Probably a large chunk of the world has this or already had it and is feeling fine, just like the flu.A year from now when they do massive tests for antibodies randomly in people to see who had it, they are gonna see how mild this thing really is. Early estimates of swine flu mortality was as high as 7 percent. Ended up being .2 China already showing a .4 percent case mortality rate for cases outside of Wuhan. "Similarly, a study released by China's Center for Disease Control last month found that if you factor out all the data from Hubei province, where Wuhan is located, the fatality rate in the rest of China drops to 0.4%." https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2020/03/03/809904660/why-the-death-rate-from-coronavirus-is-plunging-in-china?t=1584128903900.4 percent is too high bc it doesnt factor all the asymptomatic people china didnt test, so its looking like my Diamond Princess extrapolations are going to prove correct. My guess at this point is this thing is .25 percent mortality rate. Just a bit stronger than swine flu, 2.5 times stronger than regular flu. Enjoy the hype and the hoaxing though as socialist/communist idealogues impose social control and restrictions on people like shutting down eating places, shops, hotels, travel etc. This is as close to communism as they will get so they are gonna seize the moment as best they can. Hopefully people will see through this and push back.

All this 'social distancing' will not bode well for the economy, at least in a short term.

Manufacturing and other industries have started up again, people are returning to restaurants and coffee houses, and reportedly life is starting to return to normal. That means the CBA wants to start up again; it has requested players under contract to return to China."

Point taken I'm sorry, no

If everyone were buying 2 weeks usage of tp, I don't believe there would be a problem. I mean normally when I stock up, I buy enough to last around 3 months or so. I think the problem was all the morons everyone panicked at the same time and bought enough to last a year . And it snowballed. People aren't suddenly shitting more. It's just now the normal supply of tp that is usually available in the supermarket is now sitting in storage in some paranoid idiot's armageddon bunker or some such ridiculous thing.

True, thats why its important to cast a light on the foolishness instead of joining into the collective fear mongering hysteria. If Bitcoiners embrace this kind of attitude we will be a beacon of light in a storm of fear. If Bitcoiners are soft and go with the crowd, then yeah we will suffer with the misled masses. My bet is Bitcoiners arent soft and will lead the way, once the initial kneejerk fake out is over. I think sub 4k was plenty of kneejerk.

LOL assuming his people has enough. Nothing against US but I think US has enough then what's the point to do such things. In China there are people who struggles to have proper meal a day. Don't they deserve some attention? It's likely just excess stock. It's not like you can magically convert it into food. And even if it wouldn't last very long.

https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=now%207-d&q=coronavirusWorldwide google trends for Coronavirus appear to have peaked during Thursdays biggest stock market crash in over 30 years. China search trends peaked many weeks ago and they have been busy getting back to normal while the rest of the world panics about something thats killed less than a tenth of the number of yearly snake bite deaths. This suggests to me we have reached peak fear and the path forward is up.

This suggests to me we have reached peak fear and the path forward is up. I will believe that when all western countries (including US) are already on lockdown. Then it will probably be up from there. I do fear the reaction of american people when they get ordered to lockdown and many american business being temporarily shut down.

I'm gonna stick this one out in S.Vietnam. I refuse to panic travel and it looks like the rest of the world have lost their sensibilities anyway. Here, tourists are not panicked, won't even get on board with face masks and they still squeeze in at the food court every day. Godammit we've got a holliday to enjoy! The small city nearby reported a single case a few days ago. I went through the area yesterday to have a look and do some shopping and they've bleached about a 4 block radius of the streets. Smells like laundry and a chlorine pool. Some smaller and non-essential shops have closed, markets still working and many locals are pleased with the excuse of another holiday noted by karaoke gaining popularity I really do not understand the TP wars, actually, I don't understand how its still used as the preferred method. 19 years since I learned how to wash myself and it was a defining revelation at the time. An empty waterbottle is key when traveling. If you must, here's a quick video that will help get you through a TP shortage crisis. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dngwSuiu3D8&feature=youtu.be
Corn might give us another buying opportunity, stay vigilant, don't feed the panic!

What is money when you can call it a strange word 'repo' or 'term operation', then produce 500bil of it (actually, 4X500bil=2 tril) ON DEMAND. It makes for a silly impression when I look online at my paystub. The meaning of 'money" is somehow lost. I guess this is why I am in bitcoin.
