Montgomery County announced again yesterday that there have been no confirmed cases of coronavirus here so far, but that hasn't deterred people from
panic buying bottled water, every kind of hand wipe or Lysol-style disinfecting cloth, rubbing alcohol, and
tissues and toilet paper. The current U.S. death toll is 11. On the positive news front, Target in downtown Bethesda is restocking some of these hoarded goods.
On Wednesday night, there were ample supplies of water from many major brands, including Deer Park and the awards-show-photobombing FIJI. Target also had a fresh stock of their own up&up house brand of disinfecting wipes.
