What to Store incase the Next Pandemic Comes
TIPS 
Tags: pandemic, next, store, need, catastrophe, hurricane, sick, stock, shelter, basement
This is a very short list of items that might be nice to have on hand at all times. We live in a world where most consumer goods are produced in a JIT (just in time) environment. If 40% of the population gets sick, stores may not be promptly restocked all the time. Plus, people may panic and rush to buy goods, causing shortages. Think it can't happen? Think about what people do before a hurricane.
