Even before any modern pandemics, terrorist events or some major catastrophe … our modern world is only days away from breaking down at any given moment.
If communications or transportation even just get slightly disrupted, our food supply is immediately threatened. Every city has only a day or two supply of fresh food, then a week supply of non perishable food … the only reason we never notice is that there is a constant never ending stream of supplies rolling in every single day. As soon as that stream stops for any reason, everyone is in danger.
I think more and more people are just realizing just how vulnerable we really are.
