🧻Toilet paper is back on shelves and hand sanitizer is easier to find, but one item remains as elusive as ever: disinfectant wipes.
衛生紙已經重新在架上出現，洗手乳也更容易買到了，但有一樣物品卻依然難以捉摸：消毒濕巾
-elusive: difficult to describe, find or achieve, 難以描述、模糊的
-disinfectant: 消毒劑、清潔劑
🧼Clorox Co. and Lysol maker Reckitt Benckiser Group have seen sales of sanitizing wipes more than double in the past two months amid the coronavirus pandemic, according to Nielsen. But while makers of other hard-to-find staples are catching up with demand, the producers of Clorox, Lysol and
private-label wipes are as far behind as ever. Clorox said it doesn’t expect to catch up until summer, while Reckitt Benckiser said it is unsure when supplies will replenish.
根據尼爾森公司的數據顯示，在過去兩個月冠狀病毒大流行期間，高樂氏以及來蘇兩家公司的消毒濕巾銷量都成長了一倍以上，但正當其他疫情期間相關防疫物資的生產廠商慢慢將供給量趕上了需求量，幾家消毒濕巾的製造商包含高樂氏、來蘇及其他自有品牌在產量上卻依然大幅落後。高樂氏表示預計要到夏天產量才能夠趕得上市場的需求，Reckitt Benckiser則表示不卻何時才能穩定供貨。
-staples: 主要產品（不是釘書針喔！）
-replenish: to fill something up again, 補充、再補足
🧻“We’re shipping canisters of wipes every day to our customers, and within 30-45 minutes they’re gone from shelves,” Clorox finance chief Kevin Jacobsen said in an interview. “Demand has outstripped what anybody could have imagined.”
我們每天都會把一罐罐的濕巾運到客戶手中，接著30-45分鐘內他們就會從銷售一空，”高樂氏財務總監Kevin Jacobsen在接受採訪時說。”需求量超出了所有人的想象。”
-canister: 金屬罐
-outstrip: 遠超過
未完待續...
為什麼在美國消毒濕巾會這麼熱銷？
