We are witnessing a FIASCO.
Not a fiasco, it's called a disaster.
Bridges down, flooded roadways, trees over roadways and water ways, airports comprimised, material handling machinery needs infrastructure to work; fuel, electrical power, etc. needs to be up for things to run smoothly.
Flooding causes water works to stop function, so no drinking water. Sewage treatment down, so polluted water all around.
It takes awile to get things up and running. No one said surviving a disaster would be convenient.
What they need most is patience and calm. Both are in short supply.
