Even as Pakistan’s leadership has been wooing the United States and President Donald Trump, the country’s Defence Minister Khawaja Asif has accused Washington of ‘exploiting’ the Southeast Asian nation for its strategic interests and then discarding it “like a piece of toilet paper” after its objectives were met. Asif made the stark admission while speaking in Pakistan’s National Assembly. He admitted that Pakistan often denies its terror history, calling it a “mistake committed by dictators in the past.”&nbsp;He also termed Islamabad’s involvement in two Afghan wars ‘a mistake’, saying terrorism in Pakistan today was the blowback of past mistakes.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Peer-reviewed research from the University of Florida in the United States found that all the toilet paper from most regions across the world contains toxic “forever chemicals” and might be a significant source of water pollution.&nbsp;

Researchers suggest that once this waste is flushed down toilets and sent to sewage treatment plants it can become a part of the sludge which is created and is eventually spread on farms as fertilizer or even become a part of different water bodies, reported the Guardian. These synthetic chemicals which are present in soil and waterways across the globe “should be considered as a potentially major source” of PFAS in wastewater treatment systems.&nbsp;

The study checked 21 popular toilet paper brands across North America, Western Europe, Africa, Central America, and South America along with sewage samples from wastewater treatment plants in the US and found PFAS or “forever chemicals”.&nbsp;

PFAS refers to a class of 14,000 chemicals that are typically used in consumer products to make them water-resistant. As the name suggests, since these chemicals do not naturally break down they can cause cancer, liver disease, cardiovascular disease and fetal complications and can contribute to other major health issues.&nbsp;

However, the study published in the Environmental Science and Technology Letters journal did not consider the implications of using contaminated toilet paper on people’s health while there is a possibility of PFAS being absorbed through a person’s skin. They also said that reducing PFAS in wastewater is “critical” since they are potentially harmful.&nbsp;

The lead author of the study, Jake Thompson who is a grad student at the University of Florida said, “I’m not rushing to change my toilet paper and I’m not saying that people should stop using or reduce the amount of toilet paper they use.” He added, “The issue is that we’re identifying another source of PFAS, and it highlights that the chemicals are ubiquitous,” as per the Guardian.&nbsp;

According to Thompson, out of the 21 brands that they studied, but did not name, even the ones that recycled paper had similar amounts of PFAS to those that were not, which suggests that there might not be a way to avoid PFAS in toilet paper. The lead author also said that the levels of PFAS are low enough to suggest that they are used in the manufacturing process to prevent paper pulp from sticking to machinery, reported the Guardian.&nbsp;

Toxic ‘forever chemicals’ found in toilet paper is a significant source of water pollution: Study

Twitter employees have reportedly begun bringing their own toilet paper to the office as Elon Musk implements sweeping cost-cutting measures at the company.

Suicide has been a longstanding problem in Japan. Authorities are now trying an unusual new approach to tackle this issue, by printing supportive messages on toilet paper.

WION Fineprint: Toilet paper to rescue Japan's suicidal youth?

Fiji on Wednesday began distributing groceries to some households as it urges people to stay at home amid rising infections of the highly transmissible Delta variant of the novel coronavirus. 
 
Authorities posted pictures on social media of bags of supermarket supplies, including packaged food and toilet paper, being delivered to homes around the capital, Suva, as they reinforced calls for people to obey social distancing rules and get vaccinated. 
 
Police and a supermarket 'delivered household packs to Fijians in targeted lockdown areas and home isolation', the government said on Twitter as part of a publicity blitz on COVID-19 safety. 
 
The deliveries were mostly being made in poorer neighbourhoods. "We are here to ensure that Fijians get assistance," the government said. 
 
Since the pandemic began, the country of less than a million people has reported 39 deaths, but most have come since the emergence of the Delta variant in April and case numbers have risen to more than 500 a day, according to the latest figures on Tuesday. 
 
The government has said some patients are seeking treatment too late and the main hospital's mortuary was full. Some victims were also dying at home, it said. 
 
But the government has resisted calls for a lockdown and instead urged people to take precautions.

First it was toilet paper, now it's Christmas trees as Australians stock up on the ultimate festive decoration in record numbers to celebrate the end of a year most people would rather forget. Nearly three weeks from Christmas Day on Dec. 25, owners of Christmas tree farms said they were already having to close due to elevated demand for home-grown pine trees, with some already taking tree orders for Christmas 2021.

As the novel coronavirus COVID-19 continues to infect hundreds daily, people have begun hoarding groceries and other goods to be prepared for a lockdown if the number of cases continue to escalate.&nbsp;

One of these items is none other than the mighty toilet paper. While the shortage of toilet paper caused panic in Australia and the United States, one European country claims to have enough stock to last them ten years.

The Netherlands doesn’t have to worry about the disrupted supply chain of goods across the globe. The country’s Prime Minister Mark Rutte yesterday claimed that toilet paper has started to resurface on store shelves a week after people finished the stock when the majorly infected parts of the world went into panic buying mode.

'Can poop for ten years', announces Dutch PM as people hoard toilet paper

The coronavirus outbreak has resulted in panic buying of essential items in a lot of parts, from adversely-hit South Korea to Australia. And one of the most-commonly stockpiled items is toilet papers.

In mid-February, coronavirus led to such a worrying situation in Hong Kong that an armed-gang stole 600 rolls of toilet paper one day. Last week, a video recorded from an Australian supermarket went viral, where customers were seen fighting for toilet papers. So, despite the government calls of not stockpiling, why toilet paper became a hot pursuit.

Icon of mass panic

Toilet paper has become an “icon” of mass panic, says Dimitrios Tsivrikos, lecturer in consumer and business psychology at University College London, reported CNBC. He said that in times of uncertainty, people become "irrational" and "neurotic".&nbsp;

“When you enter a supermarket, you’re looking for value and high volumes,” he said stressing that people are attracted to the large packaging that toilet paper comes in when they are seeking a sense of control. He also said that multiple voices from the authorities are also adding to the confusion which is leading to mass buying. &nbsp;

However, Peter Noel Murray, a New York-based member of the American Psychological Association and the Society for Consumer Psychology, said that “there’s an over-representation of fear and people’s minds need to respond to those kinds of feelings”. &nbsp;

"The need for self-affirmation is triggered, and that drives us to do unreasonable things like buying a year’s worth of toilet paper. It overwhelms the knowledge that we don’t need to be doing that,” Murray added.&nbsp;

Conflicting messages

Steven Taylor, a clinical psychologist and author of "The Psychology of Pandemics," told CNN that when an outbreak about which less is known and conflicting messages get circulated, people resort to panic buying.&nbsp;

"When people are told something dangerous is coming, but all you need to do is wash your hands, the action doesn't seem proportionate to the threat," Taylor said. "Special danger needs special precautions."

Empty shelves, shopping carts overloaded

In the COVID-19 outbreak's images that went viral, empty shelves and shopping carts overloaded with items were&nbsp;witnessed.&nbsp;

"People, being social creatures, we look to each other for cues for what is safe and what is dangerous," Taylor said. "And when you see someone in the store, panic buying, that can cause a fear contagion effect."

He added that all these pictures make people think that they should purchase toilet papers otherwise they will be run out of it.&nbsp;

Overpreparation

Frank Farley, a professor at Temple University and former president of the American Psychological Association, said that the outbreak is leading to a "survivalist psychology", where people have to live at homes and know that they have "stock up" the essentials and toilet paper is one such thing.&nbsp;

"After all, if we run out of [toilet paper], what do we replace it with?" Farley said.&nbsp;
