The Tissue is a single paper tissue for muffling sneezes and coughs. It sits in the First Aid group of the inventory.
A character with a cold sneezes and coughs out loud. Sneezes and coughs often follow a long spell out in the rain. Holding a tissue keeps those sounds muted. That helps a sick character stay quiet.
Its strength is that it is light and easy to find in almost any house. Its cost is that each tissue wears out after a handful of sneezes. Tissues come one at a time from a Box of Tissues. Loose ones turn up in bathrooms and bedrooms. The Doctor is the best occupation for first aid. It starts with the most First Aid skill. The Nurse and the Park Ranger also start with some First Aid skill.
How to Use Tissue
The tissue works only while it is equipped. It can be held in either the primary or the secondary hand. If two tissues are held, the one in the primary hand takes the wear.
Every muted sneeze or cough wears the tissue down a little. After about ten uses it is spent and a fresh one is needed.
The Take Tissue recipe pulls one tissue out of a Box of Tissues. A full box gives about twenty tissues, so one box covers a long cold.
A spent or spare tissue can be burned. It works as tinder or as a short burst of fuel for a fire.
Upkeep
A tissue lasts about ten muted sneezes or coughs before it is used up. Keeping a Box of Tissues in the bag during a cold saves trips back to base.

Locations
Tissues are a common find in homes. Bathroom bins hold them most of the time. Dressers in any building hold them a bit less than half the time. Bedroom side tables, dressers and floor stashes give them about one time in five. Kid's bedrooms, living rooms and professional makeup cases are also worth a look. Hospital side tables, lobbies, handbags and survivor safehouses turn them up now and then.
