What?

It's especially noticeable these days.

It's like Christmas time Onley, featuring more people wearing facemasks, stocking up on essentials.

Stupid people are panicking overto the paper They are from Vancouver to Calgary to Toronto.

Even though Ontario has the most people in self isolation, the message from the health minister is clear.

People should not panic, and no, they don't need to stock up.

The system is working.

I would like to assure the people of Ontario and the risk to one.

Terrians remain civil, but retailers and organizations are preparing what they call pandemic plans.

This is daily bread's new fridge for the daily bread food Bank.

That means thinking about the people who can't afford to stock up if this this goes south in a dramatic way, doing to make a single monthly delivery rather than weekly deliveries.

If you're using public transit, thio get your food on a weekly basis, and suddenly you've got to carry four times that food back home.

How do we accommodate that?

And the more people deplete store shelves, the less food is available for food.

Bank shelves were a little bit concerned that as we go out in solicit industry donations that because the demand is there, they will perhaps think twice about donating to a local journey.

The Canadian Retail Council, which monitors buying behavior, says There's no need to panic.

We're not seeing massive runs on product, and also we've spent a bit of time talking to suppliers who manufacturers primarily, but also importers, and they give us pretty strong assurance that they can meet the demand.

But that's as long as things stay the way they are when it comes to the spread of the virus and to the fear it causes.
