When they start closing pubs

You know that this covid-19 panic is going into full on paranoia trip

Look I know it's weird observing them panic and all and if you have one bit of logic, seeing the people buying all that stuff as if they won't get out again or freaking out over a cough is paranoid, but you also know in countries with health systems that suck, when there will be cases in your area, it will not be good at all. They're closing the pubs and all in order for people to understand that they must limit going out for unnecessary reasons. And you know while it will be easy for me to get through it if I catch it, what if I transmit it to the old person next to me or to the person who's going under chemotherapy? People won't stay in so the state has to close some things down in order for them to comply I guess. I just hope people did the things they ought to and stopped freaking out and making it worse.

@HannibalAteMeOut that's fair enough, I can understand that logic, but as long as they quarantine those affected I can't see how everyone is going to get it. A bit of education goes a long way, instead of people buying up toilet paper, it would help if they actually washed their hands for one.

Meanwhile we have people profiteering over this and trying to sell hand sanitizer to everyone. Hell in a computer parts group I'm in, some asshole had to be removed because he kept spamming the group with his hand sanitizer he made.

@basilfawlty89 people's reactions are just so stupid 🤦 and some people will always find a way to profit, here they ridiculously raised the prices in all those things like hand sanitizer, masks, pasta, all that stuff that people panic-bought.
