Water usage with illness.

[Pete Grey]

Has anyone thought how personal water usage increases when you’ve got such a thing as a simple common cold, you seem to be washing you hands every time you cough or sneeze (to protect others), you can use hand sanitiser, but not if you have to prepare food.

With a serious illness, with washing hands, patient, and sick room cleaning, it could double or treble the normal allowance of a gallon per person per day.
