The coronavirus spreading in the United States is forcing Americans to return to the experience of half a century ago.
As News Front previously reported, the World Health Organization predicts that, given the current trends, the US will become the global epicenter of the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic.
Against this background, the Americans began to look again at the bunkers. Clyde Scott, founder of the Texas-based Rising S Company, which manufactures steel bunkers and bomb shelters, has seen a significant increase in demand for such products.
“Indeed, we are seeing a significant increase in the number of orders”, – Scott said.
The situation is getting worse. The more this is noticeable, the more actively people begin to think about building shelters”.
At the same time, the American businessman admitted that so far he had not faced the fact that the growth of orders was associated with a biological threat. According to him, often people buy shelters depending on political trends, which can entail social tension and unrest.
Rising S Company offers the most expensive bunker that costs $ 8.35 million. The Aristocrat underground complex includes a sauna, a gym, a press center, a bowling alley, an armory and a swimming pool.
Recall that bunkers have become a popular attribute in the US amid the Caribbean crisis. During a period of serious aggravation, which threatened to turn into a nuclear war, the Americans built bomb shelters even in the backyard.
