The COVID-19 Prediction Review
#1
In the early stages of the COVID-19 outbreak, Februaryish, we here on Punaweb (and elsewhere) made a lot of guesses about what we would face in the future.  I only remember a few, so if you recall more please add to the thread.

The Prediction - mass looting and violence would break out
The Reality - average burglaries and physical abuse continued, perhaps additional domestic violence 

The Prediction - the real estate market would collapse, and home values plummet
The Reality - sales slowed for a time, but have recovered, home prices increased

Obviously we’re not through this thing yet, but I think we’re going to make it.

They don't keep many in stock, and I wouldn't count on Amazon to ship in 2 days if the virus starts spreading on the mainland.

I'd say you nailed the mask shortage, and early too!

ETA: and Amazon shipping speeds...
