Cal Hypo Shortage?

I understand the Tri-Chlor/Di-Chlor shortage issue, but what's the deal with Cal-Hypo? Pool stores in town seem to having a hard time getting any, and those that do are charging ridiculous prices for small quantities that most average consumers would use (fifty pounds drums are available, but most people have no use for that much, especially with winter coming on).

Didn't know if this was due to people having bought up the Cal-Hypo as a replacement for Tri-Chlor/Di-Chlor, as factories can't keep up (especially with the shortage of workers), or possibly an issue due to bottlenecks in the transportation sector.

Or is it something else altogether?
 
I haven’t heard of anything impacting cal hypo in particular. I have a feeling it’s just the ebb & flow of shortages of random goods. Today it’s cal hypo- tomorrow who knows? Stabilizer was scarce for a hot minute then boom … available. We’re living in the “You get what you get & you don’t throw a fit!” times 🤣🤣 Here cal hypo is all the solid chlorine the pool store has !
