I still just don't understand the toilet paper thing.......even if we reached a Walking Dead scenario, just go outside, go to the bathroom and then wash off with water.

This leaves a reserve of ~100,000 to an absolute max of 200,000 hospital beds for patients.

Additionally, there are only approximately 65,000 ventilators in USA.
Perhaps getting the virus test kits out to the public in a hurry may not be the most logical choice? Not that I’m a conspiracy theorist

Just came back from the Grocery store near me. Mostly normal, more water on the shelves than when a hurricane is coming. Plenty of nonperishables, TP, etc

Would you really feel comfortable doing that in a Walking Dead scenario? Quite the compromising position to be in with zombies closing in behind you...
