Why people in China are panic buying canned yellow peaches as Covid surges

China seems to enter the phase that the authority try to conceal detailed situations of Covid-19.
I would like to agree with the policy. It must be better than chaotic situations caused by casual lockdown.
Some people say that it's responsibility for journalists to report all of the facts. I think that it can be true under the condition that most of the people can decide what to do based on the facts.
But, if they are given sensational facts, they will choose false decision. That's because they decide not by theoretical reason but by emotional reason.
Economic turmoil by Covid-19 is a typical example. Mass media reported damage of Covid-19 so sensationally that many countries couldn't deal with the issue by modest ways. They chose extreme decision in haste.
