Stocking up on food for an illness like this is just ridiculous. Do you stock up on 2 weeks of food during influenza season? No! Not even 2 days worth!

At least with influenza we have vaccines that are sometimes effective. No such thing with COVID19 for a while. We are all susceptible.

(I've been isolating myself this week also, in case I happened to be a carrier. I might have a slight cold, and no need to mingle with people, so it has been quite easy.)
