22 Jun 2013 - Queues building up in all major pharmacies islandwide

As the PSI level continues to reach record high level, everyone started stocking up on N95 masks.  This morning while we were at Nex NTUC buying our weekly groceries, we saw an unusually long queue building up outside the supermart.  Initially I thought there was some promotions going on where free gifts were given away.  However, after taking a closer look, the queue actually started from Unity Pharmacy, which I then realized they were queueing to buy N95 masks.
Later on, I heard that such "phenomenon" occurred at all major pharmacies island-wide and the N95 masks ran out of stocks within hours.  Many people were stocking up more than what they need but the worst is that there are people who buy and sell at a higher price over the internet.  Why do these people still want to take advantage of others during such a crisis period?  Shame on those who did it.........
