News: Toilet shortage feared in case of big Tokyo quake

Oct 29, 2008 11:43

From Yahoo News and the Associated Press:

Assuming that each of those fleeing will need to stop for the bathroom every two hours, the report said 810,000 people will be desperately looking for a toilet within hours of the quake, even if half of the public facilities remained intact.

Some might wait 17 hours before finding a toilet, the simulation said.
