Outrageous, really outrageous

I know that many of you are sick with this corona virus thing, but unfortunately, it got in my head, too. I am not panicked, but there are things that make me furious. I have written yesterday about irresponsible people who make the situation a lot worse. Now, I want to talk about people who take advantage of the situation. And these are the stores and other people who sell different products with huge prices. In some stores, the price of basic food has skyrocketed, being 10-20 times higher than the normal price. I have also seen that some stores sell sanitizing alcohol with 60 lei(15 dollar) per 0.5 liter, when usually it was 4 lei(90 cents) per 0.5 liter. I have heard that in hospitals there are people at the entrance who sell masks with 10 lei(2,1 dollars), when usually they were around 0,2 lei(which is 4 cents, I believe. There is a saying which got popular on Facebook: Remember those who took advantage of the situation now and boycott them when things will get back to normal. We live in a crazy, selfish, arrogant world. The virus has just shown us who we really are.
