COVID-19: who’s going full doomsday prep on this?

Three weeks ago at work we had a 4 pack of bamboo toilet paper go on clearance and drop to 4 dollars each (why we had toilet paper in the first place is unclear), I walked around a pallet of them all day waiting for the call that the shelf was empty, nothing came. They sat there.
The next morning I walked past the wall of rolls and scanned a pack out of curiosity.. 50 cents. About 2 hours later the call came through, bring out more toilet paper.
There was no more toilet paper. Well not for sale anymore, it was all in my boot.
Due to a few unexpectedly busy weekends there is still about 20 packs in the boot visible through the window, a stern looking bearded man caught sight of them today as i was getting out of my car and called me a stupid idiot among other things.. I couldnt be bothered explaining myself so I grabbed pack and handed it to him, telling him he would thank me later... he refused to take it.
Can't bloody win.
Your subtle "for sale " post will not be tolerated!

Onto slightly more constructive contributions: I'd like to know why Iran is suffering such a hideous contagion when neighbouring nations (Iraq, Afghanistan, UAE etc. etc.) are reporting cases in the double figures. Unavailable data? Dodgy reporting? Tin foil hat time? What?
Because of western sanctions Iran is massively dependent on China for trade of goods, specialist workers etc. As a consequence there are huge numbers of direct flights to China from Iran, including to Wuhan. Apparently the Iranians knew about COVID-19 but were trying to keep it quiet as closing off travel and trade with China would've ground the country to a halt. Also thanks to the sanctions, the health system over there is pretty down at heel so coordinating any response is beyond their capacity.

...because I live with a bunch of girls, yep 2 daughters, missus and a female dog we go thru a massive amount of dunny rolls so I use these guys for dunny rolls, delivered to your door carton at a time. Not that I'm getting drawn into the mayhem but this household is all good on the dunny roll front, as a matter of fact the next carton arrives this week....... winning, where's my beer......
uber needs to get on this quick, pooroll delivery to yr door
We use their bog roll too.
My daughters get a kick out of the funky packaging & box.
Earlier today I checked their site to see if it was business as usual...
They're sold out too. Completely.
Fucksakes.

Must be time for conspiracy theories . Was this a deliberate act by China and knowing how the world was going to react are they massing troops somewhere ready to invade someone ? Sometimes I think I watch too much TV but hey you never know .

Merry fucking Xmas to you assholes
I feel for all the owners of dilapidated and abandoned theme parks across the land. What else are they going to wrap themselves in to keep meddling kids out?
Stop it! Soon there will be a run on white bed sheets.
