The main reason I think people are hoarding toilet paper is because they think they may be stuck at home for awhile without being able to go shopping to get more toilet paper.

So the people hoard toilet paper to ensure they do not run out of toilet paper at home.

However there's always another option to wiping your butt and that is using the shower or even using a washcloth with warm water and soap which gets you much cleaner than toilet paper.

Or use baby wipes or adult wipes that are used for changing diapers.

This Coronavirus is really less severe than the actual flu and the actual flu does kill more people each year than the Cornavirus does.

This will all be over probably by August or September or at least by the end of the year.
