Please think this through. You're not completing a 6 week grocery trip in the same period of time as a single week grocery trip. You're going to be touching the same amount of items, you're going to be breathing in the grocery store air for the same amount of time.

Even if there was a marginal benefit to yourself it would be still be incredibly selfish to stockpile to the detriment of the vulnerable. The scarcity mentality is very dangerous, please do not perpetuate it.

Exposure to “grocery store air” this week is 4x less risky than exposure in two weeks. 16x less risky than exposure a month from now. 64x less risky than six weeks from now.

It has nothing to do with scarcity and everything to do with limiting social contact. Every day, being out in public is more dangerous.

As you pointed out, there is no scarcity issue, nor is there likely to be.
