Panic in stores and markets on toilet paper and canned food




With the spread of the Corona virus around the world, shoppers are running around the markets, supermarkets and pharmacies either to fight the Corona virus or to prepare for possible quarantine. Early popular products were Clorox wipes and hand sanitizer. As with the spread of the virus in a large way, the demand has become steadily on toilet paper.
Because of the panic, fear of the people, and the high turnout in stores, most stores have restricted what people can buy, as shoppers cannot purchase more than six antiseptic wipes, hand sanitizers, and hard wipes.


But why is the toilet paper the last purchase without others?



The behavior of people and their high demand for toilet paper has been explained by the fact that since people do not know how to interpret the virus, it raises the need to prepare in any way possible. Something they can buy they know they might need ... is toilet paper.




With the spread of the epidemic around the world, people were seen rushing to supermarkets and pharmacies, and they were frightened and terrified to buy essentials in large quantities.
A newspaper helpfully printed an additional eight pages as a "back-up toilet roll".

The shelves are emptied all over the world as the virus continues to spread. Insufficient information about the new Corona virus also plays a factor in people's response to this picture, while the measures taken by the authorities in the countries where the disease is spread do not seem to reassure the public.


On Wednesday, the World Health Organization announced the outbreak of the Corona virus, warning that although its levels of spread and intensity are alarming, it is witnessing alarming levels of inaction by the authorities.




More than 132,000 people worldwide have now been infected with the Corona COVID-19 virus, and 5,000 people have died from the virus.


We note from these figures that most patients recover. Where the World Health Organization said that the vast majority of Corona COVID-19 patients recover, it said, "Those suffering from mild illnesses recover within two weeks, while people with more severe illnesses and symptoms may need three to six weeks."





According to Johns Hopkins University, nearly 66,000 patients have recovered from Corona COVID-19 .

mother's Day

Mother's Day is a celebration that appeared recently at the beginning of the twentieth century, and is celebrated in some countries to honor mothers and motherhood, the mother's association with their children, and the influence of mothers on society. This appeared in the desire of Western and European thinkers, after they found children in their societies neglecting their mothers and not giving their full care to them, so they wanted to make a day of the year to remind the children of their mothers. Later, the scope of the celebrants widened to become celebrated in many days and in various cities in the world, and most often it is celebrated in the month of March, April or May. The date of Mother’s Day differs from one country to another, for example in the Arab world it is the first day of the spring semester, that is March 21, while in Norway it is celebrated on February 2 ,in Argentina it is October 3, and South Africa celebrates it on May 1.  In the United St...

The most powerful computer in the world enters the battle against Corona

In a new spark of hope to control the emerging epidemic of the Corona virus, scientists have been able to exploit the advantages of the world's fastest computer to produce an effective vaccine at an early date. Scientists say the computer, named after the IBM supercomputer equipped with the "artificial intelligence brain," has been able to determine which chemicals can stop the spread of the Corona virus, and is therefore a critical step toward the production of the vaccine against the disease. The supercomputer has a power of 200 betaflops, which means that its computing speed is 200 quadrillion per second, meaning it is a million times stronger than the fastest laptop. The CNN website stated that "Smit" had simulated more than 8,000 compounds that could bind to the virus' protein, which might limit its ability to spread to the host cells. The computer was able to identify and rank 77 of them, based on the likelihood of them being linked to...

Netanyahu and head of Mossad in the Quarantine

The new Corona virus forced Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other ministers to submit to a quarantine, after the Ministry of Health announced that Minister Jacob Litzman was infected with the virus, on Thursday. The Ministry of Health said in a statement that Jacob Litzman and his wife, who are also infected with the virus, were isolated and were in good condition and receiving treatment. She added that she would send requests to undergo isolation to those who have been in touch with the minister for the past two weeks, including Netanyahu, other ministers, and the head of the Mossad intelligence service, Yossi Cohen.  Litzman had contacted Netanyahu several times recently. The Haaretz newspaper reported that the authorities asked Cohen and the head of the National Security Council to isolate themselves after they met Litzman. Netanyahu underwent self-isolation after his counselor was found to be infected with the virus, while Israel was close to imp...
