Coronavirus, the extraordinary edition of an Australian newspaper: 8 pages of toilet paper

The mystery is perhaps soon solved. A few days ago an American newspaper published a list of essential goods for anyone who was forced to stay in quarantine. List taken from the experiences of the Chinese. In the first place, strange but true, toilet paper appears. On the second, toothpaste. It seems that the testimonies of those who have been in solitary confinement have reported the lack of rolls more than anything else.The publisher of Nt NewsMatt Williams told Guardian Australia that “the issue is going very well. It certainly isn’t a shitty issue.” “We are a newspaper known all over the world – he said – which understands the needs of its readers”. Australian toilet paper manufacturers have had to increase production to cope with the huge demand and Kimberley-Clark factories are working 24 hours a day. Australian Bidet general manager Randall Cadby said the company is inundated with calls and emails.

“The apocalypse of toilet paper”, viral on social media, is accompanied by another very popular hashtag: #ToiletPaperEmergency. The tweets well document the hysteria of the hoarding race. Today, a truck carrying toilet rolls caught fire. But half the load was saved.

In Australia 52 cases of coronavirus infection, 2 deaths and 21 healings have so far been recorded. Australian authorities have placed a number of restrictions on citizens arriving from Italy to limit the spread of coronavirus. This was announced by Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison, explaining that those coming from Italy will be subjected to “advanced screening measures”. In detail, this means that at check-in they will have to answer a series of questions and that the temperature will be measured when they arrive in the country. The measure was adopted at the end of the federal government’s national security meeting, after the Health Protection Committee recommended a strengthening of the measures.
