Question
We are facing hard times with the corona virus situation everywhere in the world. I live in Tokyo and things are flying off the shelves in supermarkets.
My girlfriend is Japanese and when she saw the Tokyo Governor, Koike’s press conference, she also panicked and wanted to rush off to buy food supplies.
I thought of people who would panic and flood the supermarkets like her and Iwant to tell her to calm down. How should I say it in Japanese?
