New Scientist magazine has just revealed that 4 layers of worn sari fabric (http://www.newscientist.com/news/news.jsp?id=ns99993258) will filter 99% of Cholera bacteria by stopping the plankton on which the Cholera is hitching a ride.

It could start a whole new fashion amongst those serious about personal survival.

How about other types of cloth or a few coffee filters ?
They would probably work as well......
