What’s that even supposed to accomplish?

The less humans congregate to buy toilet paper the less the virus can spread. Don't give the virus hosts and it dies. Give businesses where humans congregate time to decontaminate. Protect the people who work in the businesses from contracting. Limit the spread. Make the infection graph go down instead of up. Delay the spread as much as possible until a vaccine is available. Stuff like that.

So the ppl who would have shoped during the now closed hours won't shop when Walmart is open?

Did you type that from a CDC card? :)

ALL that from closing in the middle of the night which is the only time some can shop.

The idiocy continues.

“Give businesses where humans congregate time to decontaminate.”

That actually makes sense, not just with the current irrational panic, but in general. Maybe even pump some cool fresh air through the place while it’s closed.

It’s also an attempt to quell the panic over empty shelves. Every morning when the stores open the shelves will be restocked.

Hopefully that helps stop the monkey see, monkey do panic buying that adds to the fear.

Requires fewer employee hours which allows stores to deal with sick employees.

BTW, my local walmart was restocking toilet paper yesterday.
