An Australian magazine made fun this Thursday of the shortage of toilet paper in the country, linked to the panic around the coronavirus. The tabloid has published blank pages for readers who run out of toilet paper.

"We have published a special detachable interior notebook of eight pages, provided with lines to facilitate their cutting, so that you can use them in an emergency," says the NT News , located in Darwin. Fifty-five cases of coronavirus contamination have been identified in Australia. Among the new cases is an eight-month-old baby whose mother, recently returned from Iran, was diagnosed positive on Wednesday.

Panic in stores

The spread of the epidemic has caused a rush on toilet paper packages in some supermarkets. The number one supermarket, Woolworths, decided on Wednesday to ration its sales. The sale is now limited to four packs of toilet paper per person "to ensure that more customers have access to the products."

Police were forced to immobilize a man in a store after a fight over a package on Thursday. The man attacked another customer and a store employee. If photos of robbed shelving circulated on social networks, Australian supermarkets have tried to reassure the population by ensuring that they were taking the necessary measures to ensure supplies.
