Chaotic scenes at grocery stores due to COVID-19 panic

Grocery stores were packed with big crowds and long lines as latest spike of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) cases prompted panic buying across the country on March 13, 2020 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Canadians rushed to grocery stores and markets to stockpile supplies such as toilet paper and canned goods. In many stores throughout the evening the lines not only blocked people from navigating the store, but they also fully wrapped around aisles as overloaded shopping carts choked every inch of space of the stores. The World Health Organization has declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. This comes just after it was announced that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau declared he will be in a 14 day self-imposed quarantine after his wife Sophie Gregoire Trudeau tested positive for COVID-19.
