Researchers focused a laser beam on a toilet to see how flushing shoots normally invisible particles into the air, a finding that could guide future bathroom design.

    Why don’t public toilets in the US just have a lid?! 🧐

      Yet another gross thing to clean in the bathroom. Also its doubtful anyone would actually put them down before flushing.

      This isn’t news to me. Everyone’s bathroom is covered in poop particles including toothbrushes. Human’s immune system has adapted over decades. Not a problem.
