Ensuring the Supply of Commodities and Food | Podcast Episode 06

Chongqing- One of the most impressive features of the response to Coronavirus is the supply of food and commodities.

We have all watched scenes of panic buying and empty supermarket shelves in many previous crises worldwide, but this has not been the case at all in Chongqing and the rest of the country.

Contrary to normal expectations, supermarkets everywhere have been a picture of calm ever since word of the outbreak reached people’s ears.

And despite the fact residents can only go food shopping once every few days at present, people have clearly felt reassured as supermarkets continue to stock plenty of meat, vegetables, staples, and household commodities on a daily basis.
