Yeah; my inspiration is the news from the past few days. So far only in metro areas is this idiocy happening. Personally, I would concentrate on food and water before this. Oh well; hope it gets better for all soon, omg. :)

I asked the same question - One of the symptons apparently is the runs.

ah, okay. I haven't been following the news about it much, though they just isolated 2 classes of students and 10 teachers from a school that's only 2 blocks from my work. Apparently one of the teachers had been in North Italy and got infected there.
Can't see a paper shortage becoming a problem here, we live of the forests and export more than Lyle's new spiral cellulose factory.
But thanks for covering us Lyle :hehe

I also forgot, Nidhogg, they have been talking about 'self-quarantining' if you think you may have it.

Ahhh; no, OMG. lol

We now mostly use Pampers for diapers instead of cloth for a reason. Now if they have toilet paper washing faciliities like some places have for diapers, then maybe, but, after a wash, there better be no color in the cloth since the hyper heated steam water would bleach most of it out. lololol
