That's unlikely - all the UAE has a long land border with Saudi Arabia and Oman with some perfectly respectable roads, multilane highways etc linking them together. You can truck in anything that is running short very quickly. Truck drivers will, of course, make a fortune
Friends in Dubai say they're sitting at home and not going out but there's no shortage of anything - other than flights
