I wish crybaby Schumer and Pelosi could tell us.
Trump saying he will be suspending all travel from Europe for the next 30 days.
If I were Trump, I’d have put Pelosi and Schumer in charge of the Coronavirus task force.

The toilet paper is fear of being quarantined at home and running out of TP
You can also freeze it. Some of the water will freeze and form ice on top which you skim off. Do this several times and you'll remove most of the water.Learned something new today, and I wanted to pass it along. Should you be in a position to need "hand sanitizer" but only have access to crappy bathtub gin or other low-alcohol-percentage watery liquid, you can use a process called "salting out" to separate the alcohol from the water. Works with table salt (NaCl) but works better with potassium carbonate (K2CO3) or calcium chloride (CaCl2)*.
Technically, the process is called "extractive distillation." Basically, the alcohol has a weak association with the water, and the salt (being a red-blooded 'Murrican) elbows the candy-assed alcohol out of the way. It's very much a mechanical process that displaces the alcohol out of solution. You can siphon off the distilled alcohol, evaporate the water, and recover the salt. Repeat as necessary. Works with various alcohols - enthanol, isopropyl, etc.
Damn. That's amazing. When there have been hurricane warnings the past two decades that I've lived here, and there is a possibility that tap water might be out, I've never seen this. That's real panic.Stopped by the Costco in Frederick tonight to grab some coffee shortly before they closed. TP, tissues, paper towels bleach, hand soap, spam, Lysol, all gone. Empty boxes everywhere. I have never seen the shelves so empty. People were noticably panicked.

I get stocking up on things just in case the supply chains break down for a time and you can't go to the store. We live in the suburbs and (hopefully) can go a month or so without going shopping. I don't think it's unreasonable to expect businesses to be closed and/or empty for a short period of time.
But why water? There's no hurricane coming. How is this going to affect city water supplies? Is there any chance city water will be shut down, and I'm just missing it? Or is this just another case of, "OMG I HAVE TO BUY ALL THE TOILET PAPER AND WATER!!!"?
How's the bread situation? And Eggs?

So when we finally get a vaccine, are the antivaxers going to say “No thanks”?
