Well of course it won't. That would have been true at any time in the past before the current idiocy.

That headline makes as much sense as "the 6 jerry cans in my garage won't last a week" and "one cup of coffee won't get me to lunch".

The real issue is that the supply to Australia has been restricted (by 10 to 20% ?) and at some point soonish that restriction will get here. We need to know that there are feasible plans to cope with that for an extended period.
