I think this is worth posting here....from FB....

Not really its like Day 9 I think? ?
Tip for my Aussie friends, because I love you all so much and it is killing me a little inside seeing some of you all panicking and fighting each other over toilet paper.
Even IF Australia gets a lockdown... Supermarkets & chemists stay open. ?
Here is what it looks like....
One person from each family can go in.
People line up outside at a safe distance from each other.
A certain amount of people go in at a time.
You don't touch your face while you are there.
You go home, wash your hands, then chill at home.
The supermarkets are constantly re stocking and no one is hoarding because we know we don't need to. Maybe a LITTLE more than normal so you can do a weekly shop not a every second day shop.
So now we all know that.... and the fear of "what if" has been demolished for you... you can stop the insanity. It is harming your own mental state as well as literally harming those people who live pay to pay and find empty shelves. It is fear breeding fear, which isn't good for anyone or anything! Please stop it. If you are guilty of it? Well now you know you don't have to do it anymore my friend. Channel that fear fuelled energy somewhere else other than stampeding through the toilet paper aisle at Coles.
Please. ?♀️
Do some good home workouts, a punching bag sesh, do a massive clean out at home, declutter, bake a chocolate cake, watch a funny film or series, read a good book, connect with your family, call an old friend, and
stay C A L M.
Just mostly, lean into your concern for this pandemic with a due reverence for its severity and respond with a sense of faith, community, of loving your neighbour (from a distance?) , of listening to medical experts, and just do what you gotta do.... which I can guarantee you has absoloutely nothing to do with a panic reaction of piling up TP in your garage. ?
I understand the fear...this IS extremely worrying times but panic doesn't serve anything. ?
As we are saying here in Italy
# andrà tutto bene
*everything will be okay. ???
