What’s an appropriate supply of emergency food & beverages?

No need to hoard, and the water supply should not be affected. While grocery stores and pharmacies and even liquor stores are considered essential to remain open, stocking up within reason, if it is possible for you, will include considering nutritious and shelf-stable food that will help keep your immunity up, supplies to keep mental energy and emotional well-being strong, health products like thermometers and the same kind of supports you’d get for the flu, and cleaning supplies. And don’t forget your pets!
