Today Extra host Belinda Russell shares her shock at her supermarket being stripped bare

Today Extra host Belinda Russell has revealed her shock at her local supermarket being stripped bare of cereal and fresh fruit. 

The Sydney-based journalist shared videos on her Instagram story on Tuesday of empty shelves, as buying panic takes hold.

It comes after the mother-of-three recently came out of self-isolation after testing negative to coronavirus. 

‘First toilet paper and now this,’ Belinda captioned the footage of herself looking for some cereal. 

She added the hashtag: ‘Cereal killer.’

She also showed video of the lack of fruit in the store. 

It was revealed on Tuesday that Belinda and Today Extra co-host David Campbell had tested negative to COVID-19 and had come out of self-isolation.  

The presenters returned to air on Tuesday, after spending four days at home when it was revealed Tom Hank’s wife Rita Wilson had contracted the virus on Thursday.

David and Belinda went into self-isolation as a precaution after they interviewed Rita last week, who may have passed the virus to Today entertainment reporter Richard ‘Dickie’ Wilkins, who tested positive on Sunday night. 

‘A lot of it for us is a bit of tension relief. Because we had contact with Rita Wilson, who tested positive for coronavirus,’ David said on Today Extra on Tuesday.

‘It was a long four days at home while we waited for those results but we’re both not detected.’

Meanwhile, Belinda said: ‘We were pretty confident because we were told that we were a casual contact not a close contact because we didn’t have any more than 15 minutes with her – but you never know!’ 

Richard Wilkins was surprised to be diagnosed with coronavirus on Sunday as he showed no symptoms of the disease.

As of Wednesday morning, there are 455 cases of coronavirus in Australia and five deaths.
