The wave of panic buying 抢盐风波
Many people in China rushed to store as much iodized salt（含碘食盐）as possible. This trend has led to grocery store shelves being ransacked over the past several days.
"I went looking for salt in the supermarket, stores and street markets, and it's all sold out."
It all stems from the rumor that iodized salt could help ward off radiation poisoning spreading from Japan's Fukushima Daiichi power plant. Consumers also worried that the nuclear plumes might spread to China by air and sea, contaminating food sources, including salt taken from the sea.
The wave of panic buying spread quickly throughout the country, driving up salt prices by five to ten fold（涨到五到十倍）in some cities.
Even regions rich in salt production, like Jiangxi Province face sudden shortages.
Local authorities have stepped in to stabilize the market. As well, state-owned salt companies have been urged to increase their supply.
Facing expanding market demand, distribution centers like this one in Beijing have taken extra measures to ensure they are well-prepared.
Wang Yun, Beijing Salt Industry Corporation, said, "Our storage reserves can guarantee a two-month supply for the Beijing market."
Measures are being taken to prevent panic buying. Health authorities and experts have begun informing the public that the rumor of salt's protection against radiation is "totally unfounded"（完全是无稽之谈）. The public is being urged to be more rational when buying salt.
