Abstract

Editor's Note: This is the second in an invited two‐part series on supply chain resilience in catastrophes. The first installment, “Food and other Supply Flows in Case of Catastrophe, appeared in the Journal's Spring/Summer Edition. It presented a data driven, scalable analytical process to assess grocery and other supply flows in Washington State's Puget Sound. The methodology is adaptable to other metropolitan areas.1 The current article examines how U.S. supply chains have generally responded to COVID‐19 and the pandemic's impact thus far on grocery supply chains. Using these and other insights, the food supply chain repercussions of a destructive earthquake in the 4.2 million population Puget Sound Region are addressed. The first U.S. case of COVID‐19 occurred in Washington State, and the region is designated as an earthquake hot zone.2
