Corona Virus panic buying prompts toilet paper rationing in Australia

Panic buying of toilet paper amid coronavirus fears has led to supermarkets imposing a limit on Toilet Papers. Two Super Market giants in Australia Coles & Woolworths had introduced a four-pack limit for toilet paper today as stores across the country ran out of the highly sought-after product.
The product has become one of the most in-demand household items in Australia with people stocking up amid coronavirus fears.While some shoppers are “panic buying”, others are simply just in need of the toiletry good.
Toilet paper manufacturer Kimberly Clarke also announced it was opening up production lines in South Australia to deal with the quickly depleting stocks on shelves.
It is unclear exactly why loo paper has become the hot ticket item for a potential battle with a respiratory infection, but there isn't much logical about these scenes, which some psychologists are suggesting is a demonstration of herd mentality.
