That is the reason why people always panic buying and crowding when there is an announcement or rumor about restrictions. Since plans changing on day by day basis

Everybody has to understand that the decision on travel restrictions heavily relies on the statistics released every fraction of the second. We can't blame anyone for the sake of the motherland.

A short circuit will blow a fuse. Just change the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. No need to go to the electrical shop.

Let super markets open and let people buy provisions without police interference, may have reason but don't be too harsh not letting come by own vehicle, its bit silly

It is like a half-baked country without an aim with inconsistent policies due to involvement of ignorant people pulling the rope in all directions with no light visible at the end of the tunnel.
