By the way, we don't have as much stocked up as some do. We do with food and soap and such. But we are lacking in the TP area. And we aren't worried about that in the least. My parents lived through The Depression. And I've run out of TP before, many times, eons ago.
It's not as awful as people think. You just use your own wash cloth and wash it thoroughly afterwards in hot, soapy water with a bit of bleach, or even cleanser if you don't have bleach. Or just the soap and water works fine, too. They say the soap actually can work better because the virus can't live in the oils of the soap. Then you hang it up to use again. Or, you make rags and later wash and dry them after use. You can keep them in a bag inside a small trash can with a lid after use. It's really not difficult.
I don't understand why people are freaking out about toilet paper at the stores. We have very low flow toilets here and can't flush our TP anyway! We've been using trash can liner bags with metal trash cans with the foot opener for YEARS. And, we camped a lot growing up. Of course hand washing is extremely important, but is a cloth so different from a handful of TP? It actually works better!
