So, some portion of the US population would appear to alter their behaviors because of new about COVID.

Good point, but everyone knows outdoor weather in California is way better than Texas! :)
Not to be political, but pretty sure none of them are coming to California for other reasons lol :96:

The 7-day rolling average statewide for the week ending 10/29 was about 5.5%, but percent of positive hits varies widely by area.

Wife is seeing on Facebook that apparently people are starting to hoard TP & water again, and apparently hitting up the Costco for huge quantities of meat. 

Anyone seeing similar in your locales?

Costcos here in MSP have gone to 1 pack of TP per member, but that's the only restriction around here.

Well, someone in my house stored the TP in the wrong place in the garage a couple of weeks ago, so I ended up buying another pack at Costco because it looked like we were low. So I guess we're in the hoarding category, but not on purpose.

I'm less worried about COVID's impact on TP supplies than I am about...getting banned from this board for politics.

I can't help you with the former, but there's a super simple way to avoid the latter. :)

I was going to continue the discussion with utee above, but decided not to because despite offering it in fun and jest, I have a feeling it would have turned south. 

Regarding TP and paper towels, the wife is now saying if they have them at Costco I should get some, "just in case". Because people buying what they don't yet need is exactly what exacerbates shortages and supply chain issues in a "hoarding" scenario. 

Oh well. I guess that means if they have them, I'll be hoarding this week. Yay.

I'm preparing the ban-hammer as we speak.

You got something to say? :)

I always have something to say.

Like today, when I was p-d at Apple for the automatic update that got stuck halfway through and killed the phone for about seven hours.

I still have some residual stock options in a company that makes a lot of toilet paper, so it's good.
