just got back from both wal mart grocery and aldi's, noticed they were both out of toilet paper and water. what the heck is going on? are people nuts? there are a total of about 50 cases of virus in all of florida, 2 deaths, both of which were older folks and were travel related. there are an estimated 21 million folks living in florida.
on a side note, saw where some guy in australia ordered toilet paper online. wanted 48 rolls, made a mistake and got 48 cases. ended up with more than 2000 rolls of t.p.

My wife just got back from grocery shopping, and said that they were out of a lot more than just toilet paper and water. She said that self after shelf was completely empty.
It's interesting that your surgeon general noted that you cannot avoid the coronavirus by building a toilet paper fort.

As a Vegas resident, in a city with high population of Asians, I'm telling you, they are convinced they will need 300 rolls of toilet paper, and that they will be safe holing up in their bathrooms. They bought up all of the 50 pound bags of rice in the entire city. Hmmmm, I think rice makes you constipated . . .

I did hear a bit of an explanation for the demand for toilet paper - somewhere, somebody coughs, and 100 people s**t themselves.

Olds is in CYA mode. I heard that Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods are scaling back operations. He may be distraught.
