As we all know in recent weeks the Covid-19 outbreak has become a serious problem in America and across the globe. This has caused many around the nation to begin gathering and hoarding supplies such as toilet paper, water, and food items as they prepare for the worst to come. While I believe that this is a wise precautionary measure to take during this time, many of those participating in this preparation are in some cases taking it a little too far. Some are purchasing enough supplies to last them for years to come while not considering their fellow citizens, especially senior citizens who are most vulnerable. Thankfully this problem has been addressed not just locally but also nationally and has led to special hours put aside for seniors to do their shopping in a safe and controlled environment. It is clear that many Americans are obviously in a panic mode but this pandemic is showing how many truly care about the well being of others. Some are sacrificing for their fellow Americans, while others gather and hoard as many supplies as possible leaving others with nothing to acquire. I believe that the main objective to beat this virus is to work together, follow instructions suggested by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and US Government, and to be compassionate for those who need it the most during a time like this.
