I am glad people are putting an emphasis on toilet paper that's just because I know they've found the virus in fecal matter. If people are left to shower their bottoms not only is there a lot of other bacterial concerns involved but the virus is also present in. If people don't have the proper disinfectant(s) or knowledge to how long they have to sit on the surface to kill the virus it can become concerning with households that have elderly or vulnerable people. Even if they decide to try and shelter grandma, grandpa and others as separately as possible taking a bath or shower could become a huge issue as some people will only show minor ailment with this virus, none worse than a cold and they may actually think they don't have the virus until they crap it out in the shower than try and figure out exactly how grandma, grandpa could have gotten it since they took extra precautions to isolate and function away from them as much as possible.
I admit I was completely overwhelmed by the stores myself. I did the same thing you did late last night as I walked through our largest retailer. Pondering the various items people grabbed. I am so thankful here for the conspiracy crowd as it gave me insight and time to decipher and sort through enough to pick the "conspiracy" parts out of the "facts" parts enough to get my family up and moving the last three weeks. It wasn't easy by any stretch of the imagination, they'd tell me to stay off the internet, stop blogging, hang up on me, threaten to take my computer when I wasn't looking, lol, but finally they started listening to me as I'd just start to text them instead saying this is another thing I've never seen before in my life. By that time I had researched and I knew what they needed to do, like being able to make your own bread, there's no room in the freezer in a time like this to store bread and if it came to not wanting to exposure yourself to get a loaf you'd need to be able to make it....and yeah, totally in agreement on that peanut butter, nice warm baked bread with peanut butter sounds pretty good to me. If it comes down to not needing all this stuff then the bakers in the family can buy it from the non bakers to make all those holiday deserts this coming holiday season. Hopefully all's well that ends well but if so we'll all be well stocked for the holidays.
It is a weird situation, now the schools are closing here in Finland too. Now the hope is that these actions are enough to prevent the overloading of health care.
Wish you well during this corona happening.
