Authorities in Japan are urging residents to avoid hoarding amid rising anxiety over a possible megaquake. A recent magnitude 7.1 earthquake in the south injured 14 people and triggered warnings of a heightened risk of a massive quake. Tokyo supermarkets are experiencing shortages, with bottled water being rationed, and online retailers report high demand for disaster supplies. While experts stress that the risk remains low, the government estimates a 70% chance of a major quake in the next 30 years. Residents are advised to prepare, but avoid excessive hoarding.
