Cighetti says panic buying was one of the first social symptoms of the epidemic.
“It’s difficult to behave well under pressure,” he says. What stopped people hoarding food was when the supermarkets demonstrated there was no shortage - by constantly and visibly re-stocking shops.
Once people were confident there were no problems with the food supply, the “panicking behaviour” stopped.

Hotel whose employees live on premises lays off at least 13 employees, telling them to vacate the premises immediately. I realize the layoffs are related to #COVID-19, but the behavior is just wrong.
The is a level assholishness rarely seen. I hope it does not go unpunished. (Does #UK have labor standards to protect against this? If not, they should.)

7:03 pm: Why there will soon be tons of toilet paper, and what foods may be scarce, according to supply chain experts
Stuck rationing toilet paper because you didn't stockpile during the coronavirus panic over the last few days? Don't worry, according to supply chain experts.
"All the grocery stores are going to have pallets of toilet paper sitting in the aisles, and nobody is going to buy it, because who needs to buy toilet paper when you've got a year's worth sitting in your garage?" Daniel Stanton, a supply chain expert and author of "Supply Chain Management for Dummies," tells CNBC Make It. —Jade Scipioni
