Concerned Berliners flock to supermarkets amid coronavirus panic buying
Berliners reacted on Thursday to the race for groceries that has been ongoing since last week amid the coronavirus threat and recent outbreak in Germany.
"It calms you down a bit. When you get sick and you cannot go outside or you have to stay home for two weeks, it's good when you have something to drink and to eat at home," said Wolfgang, a local who was interviewed upon exiting a Lidl supermarket in the city. Wolfgang added that "the supermarkets were plundered, and you take what you can carry in order to have something at home."
Another man, Alper, was stocking up on water, among other produce.
"So much water! With all this water I can not only drink, I can also cook with this water. Last week everything was sold out here and this week everything was still empty. Now I found some, which I got," he explained.
