The Issue

During this global pandemic those that are the most vulnerable are being denied  the most basic necessities such as water, non pershable foods, toilet paper and cleaning supplies by the panic stricken or just plain opportunists who are snatching up all they can from store shelves leaving many without access to the basics.

This mass hoarding of some in the community only help spur overall panic of their being not enough for everyone. This does not even consider the panic of contracting the virus itself, which 80+ % (conservative estimate) of us will survive with little discomfort. These actions by some will also increase the likelihood of the spread of the virus when those who cannot get what they need will have no choice but to go from store to store, line to line and crowd to crowd. This is exactly what we are being asked NOT to do. 

Since calm and compassion seem to be a challenge for some in our communities to garner at this time, it's time to put in place PER PERSON limits at each grocery store, including Walmart and Costco. 

Let's ensure everyone has what the NEED so we can eradicate the spread of this virus in our communities while we ensure the least amount of impact to everyone.
