So much misinformation!
Aussies are being urged to stop urgently stockpiling toilet paper and other non-perishables amid fears of Coronavirus impacting supply numbers.

Kimberly-Clark, makers of KLEENEX toilet paper and supplies, also released the following statement.
Kleenex toilet paper for Australia and NZ is made at our Mill in South Australia, and our production lines are working 24/7 to address the increased, short-term demand. We’re also working closely with our customers to replenish supermarket shelves faster.
