If requiring unlimited daily access to a grocery store in the beginning of a pandemic is the lack "oil" in your eyes, you might need to find another planet to inhabit.
And to answer your question then, no.
To panic people into food hoarding would be one of the worst possible actions that could be taken, if restrictions are required they need to be implemented VERY carefully.
Far better to take steps to bolster the food supply chain, if it falls apart we are screwed, glued, and welded.
