By the way, I agree with @RescueRanger on gathering stuff.
At least people should stock essential medications, specially if they relate to chronic diseases such as BP, Diabetes etc.

Burt Gummer is my Idol. I have farmland where I grow all my own produce, not just that I have six months supply of MREs and Medical supplies which I rotate every year - it has its own biogas digester, fuel storage, solar, boaring well and RO plant.

Apologies for an off-topic post again!
In a related development, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bisent told CNBC that the United States is allowing Iranian oil tankers to pass through the Strait of Hormuz to supply certain countries, including India, with energy.
Meanwhile, early signs of supply chain disruptions are emerging in the shipping markets. Experts report rising air freight rates from India and growing concerns among manufacturers about inventory pressures. Reports indicate that air freight costs from India have increased by 200% to 350% for some routes, which could quickly impact pharmacies, as many distribution companies operate on a just-in-time inventory model.
Experts warn that continued disruptions could begin to affect consumers within four to six weeks in the form of supply delays or shortages of some widely used medications, such as treatments for diabetes, high blood pressure, cholesterol, and antibiotics. The impact could later extend to some heat-sensitive medications, including certain cancer drugs.
The risks aren't limited to medications. Amanda Chawla, senior vice president and head of supply chains at Stanford Healthcare, believes the risks extend beyond medications to other medical products, such as insulin syringes, hand sanitizers, medical gloves, and ointments that rely on petroleum derivatives. Rising energy prices directly impact the production costs of these goods.

Honestly if you all think I am joking I have had family members message me and say "bahi woh diesel nahi mil raha"... To try and borrow some from my reserve!

Stages of "Fuel Shock" in Pakistan, a cozy timeline:
- Shortage: By April 2, 2026, the if "Hormuz Blockade" enters its second month. Despite Saudi oil arriving via the Red Sea (Yanbu-to-Karachi), diesel stocks will hit a "7-Day Critical" level.
- Rationing Trigger: The E-Fuel app moves from voluntary to Mandatory Individual Rationing. Private car owners are limited to 5 liters per week.
- Economic Shock: Inflation on essential food items (wheat, ghee) spikes by 40% in a single week due to the "Transport Surcharge." The Pakistani Rupee (PKR) devalues to 350 against the USD as the current account deficit explodes from oil import premiums.
This is why I was acting like a grumpy old fart and asking people to look at things pragmatically.

A few more questions, if anyone can answer without showing his/ her family's traits:
Was there a specific reason of signing a defense pact right before the current war? Did the KofSA know about the incoming war with Iran?
Sorry for my ignorance as I was not following Pakistani news lately. Which party offered the defense pact first?

The similar impact is going to hit Qatar equally. As of now, shipping lanes are completely closed. Straight of Hormuz was the only way for Qatar to get in all the supplies.

The land border with KSA can serve an expensive alternate though.
