WE asked if you agreed with the view of NHS England’s national medical director that supermarket panic buyers should be ‘ashamed’ after bare shelves left a nurse left in tears at the end of her shift:
Eileen Mortimer Webster: They should be so ashamed and we will be paying for their selfishness and greed for a long long time. There will now be a shortage of everything which production cannot meet.
Hayley Carpenter: People may need to realise every time you walk into a supermarket or a shop with your family it is highly likely your visit is being recorded by every one of them on CCTV. Every online shop is recorded. So when all this is finished you could possibly be in a lot of trouble if you stock piled unnecessarily and left others without provisions, especially OAPs.
I do believe naming and shaming will definitely happen in the future.
Sue Lampshire: If you are shopping for three high risk people with whom you are about to be in isolation for 12-13 weeks, can you really vilify that person for buying a few extra tins of beans? Grow up and get off your high horses everyone. The govt needs to set up rationing. And soon. Anne Dodgon: Well
I for one won’t be bothered about being recorded as I have been shopping responsibly Julie Foster: Anyone who abuses staff who are working to keep everyone fed and cared for through this difficult time should get a £ 1,000 fine and 10 days in jail...
Paul Webster: It’s not just NHS staff it deprives but everyone that’s not being selfish and trying to shop sensibly.
Coryn-Anne Montgomery: They are depriving more than just NHS staff.
Laura Marsden: Absolutely!
Janet Golden: There are others to consider too!
Zoe Connor: And the smaller shops charging more for items desperately needed Domenica Teoli Cancelliere: Yes I do agree. Some people are very greedy and selfish. Jackie Dixon: Shop for need, not want and greed.
