While many have come forward to request people to stop hoarding basic supplies as it is affecting those who cannot afford to buy in bulk.
People need to understand that buying stuff in bulk will not make them prevent coronavirus.
And now people from Pakistan are also reporting panic buying as they face a shortage of hand sanitizers and masks.
And while there is a shortage, shopkeepers have increased the price of the products that are high in demand.
What people need to understand here is the fact that they are being instructed to social distancing to avoid falling victim to the deadly virus. It does not mean that the market will run out of stock in a flash.
This behavior is only adding to the problem and will make the already vulnerable suffer even more. If people won’t stop piling stocks at home then the supply-demand chain will be disrupted leading to the unavailability of the products.
