Sex clubs in Amsterdam's "red light" district have closed down and long lines continue to form at marijuana coffee shops after the Netherlands imposed tight restrictions to prevent the spread of coronavirus.The Dutch Government has ordered all restaurants and cafes, including those selling hashish and cannabis, shut down until April 6.Schools are also closed in the Netherlands in an effort to contain the pandemic.

It's going to be a complete disaster. What's going to happen when an entire country gets the munchies and find that the shops and restaurants are closed?

That might be part of their plan... the Dutch had indicated that they wanted to try 'herd immunity' as a way to counter the impact of Covid19, i.e. allow it to spread amongst a demographic that should be relatively okay to weather it, and thus reduce the chances that the virus will be found in society and passed to other people.

Maybe getting stoned is a way to forget about it?

Classic.

I'm sure when they smoke it it will get passed around amongst the herd instead of hoarded by selfish idiots.

The PM has asked Australians to "stop hoarding".

So FFS people, get your finger out of your selfish arses and stop hoarding.
