Were live in daley city with the details on that plan. Sergio . Reporter one of the reasons were seeing these long lines is because theyre trying to limit the number of customers theyre letting into their stores to ensure proper social distancing inside the building.

Some items like hand sanitizers, masks, lysol and others continue to be unavailable in stores or online. Its for that reechbason. The San Mateo County supervisor is urging people to stop panic buying or he may introduce new legislation to crackdown on hoarding. If the lines continue to show like this were going to have to call for immediate action that i will propose the legislation i initially proposed and that will be to limit shoppers to the purchase of four items. Reporter to be specific, hes talking about a limit of no more than four per item. It has not disrupted the food supply chain. There are plenty of groceries and other necessities available.
