Does Jake Peralta predict pandemic?

In episode 3 of season 7, former detective Adrian Pimento makes a comeback. Pimento is shown suffering from a short term memory loss and asks Jake Peralta and Charles Boyle to help him. A tiny scene from the show has Adrain having tattoos on his body that were reminders of the things that he tends to forget. This is a rip-off from the movie Memento.

As Adrian stands naked in front of Jake, there is a tattoo that reads 'Buy toilet paper' in big bold letters. Fans started sharing this scene on Twitter and pointed out how this became a glaring reminder in reality as well. In light of the Coronavirus lockdown, people started hoarding toilet papers to a point that they were impossible to get. Jake also says, "I hate to think of the horrific event that led to a reminder of this size." This became a reference to the time of the spread of coronavirus in the USA.
