Before Coronavirus was even referred to as a national emergency, many began to stock up on basic supplies. Health experts have suggested that anyone who doesn’t have access to hand sanitizer should wash their hands for 20 seconds with warm water and soap.

Surely, this is a joke but the lack of toilet paper and other essential supplies in North America is not. Two T, face masks, and face masks in Tennessee and Kentucky were recently forced to donate the 17,700 bottles of hand sanitizer that they were once hoarding.
