NZ “Experts”: Don’t Panic
February 28th, 2020Via: New Zealand Herald:
People are panic-buying water, sanitiser and other essentials, causing lengthy queues at many supermarkets after confirmation of the first coronavirus case in New Zealand. But experts are urging calm, and say there is no need for panic.
Queues were out the door at at least one Pak’nSave this morning and shelves were being cleared out, following similar lengthy queues at many Auckland supermarkets last night.
One shopper said it was as if people were “stocking up for the apocalypse”.
