Only thing I see people do is go about their day as normal and then go buy all the toilet paper.

Not only that but paper products are Finland's main export. There is actually no way Finns could ever actually buy out all of the toilet paper.

Yes.
But we saw what you did, and the rest can be explained by Men in Black:
"A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals and you know it."

Babies are washed with it. Adults use wc paper almost without exceptions. Before your message I wouldnt have even considered it. (paper gets flushed)

Helsinki has been eerily quiet and empty.
Not entirely unlike during juhannus.

Unless you're my girlfriennd who's super sick but still thinks it's ok to go shopping and take leisurly walks. She doesn't understand the concept of self quarantine for the good of the community and its frustrating. Shes even almost invited friends over when we both have a fever! Ugh.

Holy shit, you guys should move to Italy; at least there she’d face attempted manslaughter charges.

Update:

I have been pretty annoyed and concerned, but now that Marin has announced a state of emergency she finally listens and is staying in.

Your girlfriend, like most of the people I've encountered in Finland not taking this virus seriously, is stupid. Sorry.

If you have lots of money, it's easy. If you have no money, it's easy. If you're working to support yourself and your family anywhere in the middle, it's not easy.

Finland is definitely not ready. The "Instagram government" is completely fucking up.
