The hysteria here is mostly fairly confined still, but the TP issue has become a self fullfiling cycle. Because a small number of people panicked early on, the shelves got wiped out. As normal people see this, and the supply chain can't keep up, many people are starting to run low now and the problem just feeds itself.

Aus is just starting to put bans on crowds - 500 + they are saying at the moment. Only 1 or 2 schools closed to date.

I work in a supermarket in the online dept, and we are incredibly busy. Lots of people seem to be swapping to ordering online so they don't have to come in to the store. Sports events are starting to get cancelled and travel companies are starting to cut costs/services.

I think that governments around the world are pleased to have something to blame the economic crash on now rather than admit this crash was coming anyway because of their mismanagement - but that's another issue completely.

What state of the US are in? Is there cases in your home town yet, or is it still in the biggest cities mainly?
