Thanks and sorry to hear that. Over in UK grocery stores are all open, some 24 hour ones shutting at night for replenishment. Key items are missing here too though, production couldn't keep up with demand I guess. We are supposed to be practicing social distancing (2 metres apart) and food shopping deemed okay, but I am persuading my elderly parents to stay home as they are high risk, supermarkets are germy high traffic places, I wouldn't go there unless I had too. IMO many people here are not taking it seriously enough, I suspect some people have to be personally affected before they believe it.

I think what you are describing now is possibly where we will be in a week or so. I am on vacation now so out of it.

Stay safe everyone.
