Utahn’s stocking up on essentials

Utah shoppers are stocking up on items like bottled water and hand sanitizer as fears about a coronavirus outbreak grow.

Shoppers at several Salt Lake County stores took pictures of empty shelves yesterday when they couldn't buy toilet paper, cleaning wipes and other items.

Concern continues to grow after a second U.S. death from the virus was reported over the weekend.

There have been no coronavirus cases reported in Utah as of yesterday.
