Australia was revealed yesterday for the first time, and today it was revealed that a third country returned to Australia with a new type of coronavirus.

In the midst of the current tense situation, people across Australia are beginning to frantically "sweep up supermarket hoarding" and many supermarkets are empty. Virginia, xinzhou and other regions have called on people to remain calm, to avoid panic sex to buy!

Woolworths, Coles, Aldi and other supermarket shelves, including rice, bottled water, toilet paper, pasta, cans and hand sanitizers, have been snapped up amid fears of a new coronavirus epidemic.

An Aussie has shared a huge influx of customers into Costco to snap up a group of 48 rolls of toilet paper photo." This is at Costco Casula, they fear not the new coronavirus, but the lack of toilet paper," the woman wrote. "

Virginia Gov. Daniel Andrews called on people to stop the "panic rush" and said they had to wear a mask before they went out. "We don`t get the point where people need to wear masks regularly, and the number of masks in any jurisdiction is limited, and if we use them now, it means we may not have enough masks available when we really need to wear them. "

Brad Hazzard, the new state health director, said there was no reason why people would start stocking up on supermarket goods. Although the virus is likely to eventually spread in Australia, more than 80 per cent will have only mild symptoms. "I think we need to be careful and wash our hands, but don`t buy in a hurry, that`s not necessary. "Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison has called on Australians to remain calm and not panic and continue their normal lives. "Just like in severe flu season, keep your head down and you can continue your daily routine. "Supermarket chains across Australia say they are considering restrictions as a result of the spread of panic hoarding.

Fred Harrison, chief executive of Ritchies SupaIGA, said a sudden rise in demand had put pressure on some suppliers. "We`ve seen rapid growth in demand since Thursday, and we`ve allowed it to rise from last weekend to this week. ""We don`t really need panic because Australia has enough stock to supply, but if customers start stocking up for April to May, it is bound to put pressure on some suppliers. "

Mr Harrison confirmed that if suppliers start to struggle to meet consumer needs, they will consider imposing restrictions on the number of products each customer buys. "We are communicating with suppliers to see how they are doing. "China is beginning to return to normal, and many major companies are starting to slowly get on track and will see a noticeable improvement next month," he said. Coles, a speaker, said this week they increased deliveries to stores to meet consumer demand for certain products, such as shelf-life pantry food and hygiene. Advice to the public Brett Sutton, chief health officer in Virginia, cautioned against buying unnecessary items, but instead needed to consider what to need if the virus had unfortunately contracted. "You can prepare important items in the coming weeks, such as medicines, food and other essentials, but don`t go blind because you hear something in the supermarket is sold out. There is no specific suggestion on the Home Office website, and 7NEWS.com.au gives the following to the Australian public in conjunction with the relevant advice from the Department of Homeland Security:

Reserve 2 weeks of food and water,30 days of prescription drugs, and transfer all household health records to electronic storage.

need to wear a mask?

No need. Unless you are ill, there is no evidence that wearing a mask protects a healthy person, according to infection prevention experts. Instead, wearers often increase their risk of contracting the virus by frequently touching their faces.
