Americans are reportedly crossing into Mexico to buy toilet paper and other household items as stores in the U.S. continue to struggle to meet demand from shoppers stocking up on supplies amid the coronavirus outbreak.

On Tuesday, local news broadcaster WKBN 27 News reported that Californians had been "flooding" into Northern Baja looking to buy toilet paper, water, and other items.

The desperate attempt to stock up on supplies comes as stores around the world have seen aisles holding toilet paper, soap, and other sanitary supplies, left empty by shoppers afraid they may be unable to get these supplies as the coronavirus pandemic worsens.

Workers at a Costco in Tijuana told WKBN 27 that they believed as many as 600 shoppers had been turning up in the mornings by 10a.m. over recent days. They came to that number because the store only has 600 shopping carts and by 10a.m., all of those appeared to have been taken.

1. Trump is threatening to close the border with Mexico, like the idiot he is.

Where will these people get their TP then?

2. I read that too.

Then I saw on the local news that they are having the same problems with TP in TJ (Tijuana).

3. While you're there, do NOT drink the water!

That would be self-defeating.
