I'd bet yes based on the birth rates in Louisiana after hurricanes, plus girls named Katrina, Camille, etc.

Maybe people should stockpile condoms instead of TP?

I can totally see the divorce rate going up. If you were on the fence about a divorce and then you are locked up 6 weeks in an apartment, it will be decided one way or another, where without the lockdown it may have gone on for years longer.

I still have no desire to see "Contagion", and who would have ever thought that "Yellow Fever" is like, literally about Chinese women making you actually feverish?

There will be an increased use of Kleenex by the male population.
