    Yep....watch what is happening in California..apparently...they do not have the resources to test....they have the largest immigrant population from places like Iran, China, etc.

    That state is going to get hammered.....if that of sort of chaos is happening there..what is going to happen to other states.

    At least the Chinese and Iranians are now addressing it....

    I can see the US economy being hit hard...this will be bad news for everyone!

    Imagine a 30+% drop in the stockmarket.My mind boggles with the opportunities. I wouldn't want it to eventuate due to the deaths, but the opportunities would be there and be massive.

    No idea tbh, I'd be mainly interested in the growth and short term, say 2 to 4 years.

    The post above this you said you and your partner split up and bought from two different stores. How is that different to everyone else being "silly"?

    IMHO there is a legit difference between actually needing it and panic buying..... the panic buyers are making it near impossible for the average "I just need a few rolls because I have genuinely run out" person to get any.

    I think what they should have done already is for stores to break open packs and limit to 1 roll per person per day.....
