All across America, shelves in supermarkets are empty and it has led to the #bareshelvesbiden hashtag trending on Twitter. Here are some examples of bare shelves across America this week. Weeks after President Joe Biden promised corrections to the country’s supply chain and manufacturing crisis, a COVID-19 outbreak is keeping workers who test positive for the new omicron variant of the virus home. That includes truck drivers, grocery store workers and other professions vital to the retail and grocery industry. Pharmacies across America are selling out of the over-the-counter cold and flu medicines and COVID-19 testing kits are running dry across America.
In Philadelphia and surrounding areas, CVS and other pharmacies have run out of cold and flue medicines.
A Wisconsin Dells Walmart is nearly out of produce.
Trader Joe’s in Arlington is full, but of empty shelves.
Toilet paper and paper towels at Publix in Alachua, Florida are nearly all sold out.
Meat shelves across New Jersey ran dry.
