Coronavirus disease, also called as COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by a new virus. The outbreak of this virus around the world has been affecting everyone. Places all over the world have ordered lockdown to their airports, coastal ports, and other public transportations and implemented enhanced community quarantine, advised people to stay at home to prevent spreading the virus. Because of the lockdown, businesses are forced to close temporarily until further notice.
Breweries, distilleries, and wineries are also feeling the impact of this worldwide crisis. As people are panicking about keeping themselves clean and sanitized and some retailers have run out of hand sanitizers and other disinfectants, they turn to alcoholic beverages like vodka, as an alternate.
Some distilleries are also helping out in fighting the war against coronavirus by converting their distilleries into hand sanitizer facilities and some breweries are also stepping up to do the same. And wineries are also finding ways to still do business by accepting orders and deliver.
On the other hand, supermarket shelves are running out of stocks because people are panic buying that they would be forced to self-quarantine. Processors and retailers assure the public that there’s plenty of stocks available, as long as customers just buy what they need and don’t hoard, there will be no problems at all.
