Dip paper towels into bleach water. Squeeze out the excess water. Then keep the wipes moist in an air-tight plastic bag.

1. First you have to find paper towels.

And bleach.

2. A spray bottle with full strength hydrogen peroxide kills the coronavirus, too. You just have to

let it dry a few minutes after you spray and before you wipe.

3. Once diluted for use, bleach has a VERY short shelf life.

On edit:
If memory serves, plastic bags, including zip-locks, are pretty gas permeable. Would think that would shorten the already short shelf life.

4. Exactly

what we've been doing. Got to improvise. No paper towels, use regular towels and wash frequently. A young mom I know bemoaned the lack of baby wipes. I explained to her what we did back before throw away wipes. Maybe a new trend will start?

5. I can't believe people haven't figured out the "use regular towels and wash" thing.

Whether it's for wiping down thing or for emergency toilet paper. The landfill situation is going to be horrific by the time this is all over.

6. My daughter is 44. When she was a baby I used cloth diapers and washed them.

Couldn't afford disposables.
