Consider that the vast majority of commercial bathrooms in the U.S. dont even include lids on toiletsmeaning that every time someone flushes, a toilet plume of droplets explodes into the air, coating the surrounding stall (and the person standing in it) and aerosolizing the bowls contents, which can be breathed in and ingested by nearby parties (gross)
We also know that COVID-19 has been found in human poop, up to 33 days after infected people have recovered and tested negative for the virus. No amount of handwashing will remove a virus sprayed all over your body.
a huge uptick in requests for touchless technologies, particularly from schools hoping to improve bathrooms before potentially reopening this fall
People dont even want to touch a manual flush valve; they kick-flush using their foot,
a disastrous experiment by the city of Seattle to install self-cleaning public bathroomswhich sprayed disinfectant and power-washed floors after every use (but ended up trapping and hosing down homeless people)

Trapping and hosing down homeless people seems like a good idea.
Having read years ago about "flushing plumes", I immediately adopted the practice of never flushing without closing the lid. Think about people whose toothbrushes are hanging out in their holders on the wall, a couple feet from the toilet. Ick.
I just love the ones in the parks which flush periodically. Scares the sh** out of you...no pun intended.
this turd never goes down.
“How about a Purell spraying bidet?”
Apparently, FTA, efforts to automatically clean bathrooms are harmful to vagabonds and professional layabouts.
and best of all, toilet paper will be obsolete, hence no reason to hoard it any longer . . . .
How about more regular cleaning... no, that doesn’t sound right.
Well, the Chinese living in Queens certainly did. I remember my downstairs neighbor and I finding a little pile deposited against the side of our building. Yuck.
I do, only after watching a blacklight video of ‘fecal plume’. Well, when I remember to.
What’s wrong with the auto toilets we have now?
He doesn’t enjoy flushing the toilet about a half a dozen times?
Maybe they are going to make it so it takes a dozen times?
BTw never sit on a public toilet seat..even with the paper cover.
“How about a Purell spraying bidet?”
Yes, but wouldn’t that sting? :-)

WHO doesn’t enjoy flushing the toilet about a half a dozen times?
Thermoses can detect if a beverage is hot or cold and keep it that way! Toilets can detect homelessness! Technology is amazing :)
LOL! A single pathogen, not much different in its mortality then that of it’s deadly predecessors, and of course the world goes bananas!
No ulterior motive here is there?? Just coincidence that the the WHO/CDC/UN globalist commies are losing their grip on world power and central control.
And India, which ironically sends people to steal American tech jobs.
Just look at the wet floor of most bathrooms. Ugh. On my shoes and into my car or house.
Squat toilets only.
I have spent years with squat toilets, they are not a problem.
I prefer the ones the footprints and combo shower.
Not the ones with the elevated ring target.
