    We have been out of lysol spray for about two weeks now as well as out of hand sanitizer. We have to stand outside of food stores because of this social distancing thing, about 3 to 6 feet away from one another. Saw an argument on the line between two women and the store security guard. It's getting there, it's getting there....

    Any government wants to stop riots and anarchy so they have to contain, delay, research and mitigate it. So far we are not on the last phase.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    expect to see food shortages. they want you to drink cockroach milk and eat bugs. crops have been ruined by flooding & locusts & droughts. farmers are rushing to try & reseed their crops, well ahead of schedule. also struggling to find workers to help plant or harvest or deliver. countries will start to limit exports

    On just about everything it is getting back to normal already. I expect that demand will be heavy from Wednesday through the weekend because every grocery chain in the country starts their new ad on Wednesday and it is also the first of the month.
    Paper products and cleaning products will be the last to catch up.

    Nothing from the states has changed for me. I bought several Filet Mignon steaks yesterday. They were plentiful and priced the same. The cows were pretty fresh. Tasted great with a salad and a sweet potato.

    You experienced issues because people freaked. Suppliers do not expect that nor have the capacity to predict or respond to panic buying. They keep on producing though and people at home then have too much and so it evens out. Prices sometimes even go down due to oversupply as people are stocked.

    People should always be stocked. Who the hell buys toilet paper every week? Buy online, get it delivered, and it is 30% cheaper. Done for a year. Cut out the middle men and you can save money too. People should always think long term, but the economy churns on those who do not.

    Only scenario I can see causing local shortages would be the trucks coming to a halt or slowed. Also as we go forward there are more employees being found positive. That right there would cause store wide closures for sure, restocking, sanitizing and testing entire staff. Grow your own is the answer, I wish I had the green thumb and land

    that doesn't mean there aren't food shortages going on & coming

    The April 2 briefing warns that the task force had completed an analysis and there could be “commodity impacts if current PPE inventory is exhausted.” There would be shortages of milk within 24 hours and of fresh fruits and vegetables “within several days.” The document estimates that “meat, poultry, seafood, and processed eggs” would become scarce within a period of two to four weeks, while “dry goods and processed foods inventories” — that is, the non-perishables that are pantry staples — could become scarce “as soon as four weeks” after face masks and gloves run out across the food supply chain.

    We are now at a FULL AND COMPLETE SHUT DOWN over this weekend, to end at 5am on Monday morning but only to go back to the regular 24 hour curfew. lolol....

    So if you didn't get you groceries before 1pm on Friday, and he made the announcement at 4pm Friday evening, then you may well starve to death this weekend. God help you if you need medicine.
