I'm expecting a lock down some time in the near future over here, so I stocked up on all the parts I need to complete some projects and maintenance on our cars and the house.

Indeed.
It is not bad yet, only 500 cases as of yesterday, which in the bigger scheme of things, are not that many. But, as our President said, they want to get the lockdown active as soon as possible, to curb the growth of the virus.
Our biggest problem is the lack of facilities (and money) to effectively deal with Covid once it really starts to spread.
We simply do not have enough hospitals and medical staff to treat this virus.
