gollark: The UK appears to mostly be going for just *asking* people not to go out much right now, and obviously shutting schools.
gollark: That doesn't make it a good idea.
gollark: And after the panic-buying began there was, well, not much food available, so it made (makes?) *some* sense to buy some when it is.
gollark: There was a possibility (probably still is, and I imagine it's happened some places) of supply chains failing to get food to sale fast enough.
gollark: I don't think it's stupidity as much as possibly excessive self-interest causing panic buying.
