Dangerous Toilet Plumes!

These days "sanitary" is top of the heap on stuff we think about. If keeping the toilet lid down is not already a priority in households with dogs anyway, listen up.
"The potential for airborne transmission of infectious disease via sewage has been the subject of research for more than a century, and the toilet plume’s role has been scrutinized since the 1950s."        Washington Post, June 16, 2020
Who knew? Anyway, read the article linked below and keep that lid down! That plume you get from flushing might contain a nastier passenger that begins with a "V" than the expected vapors that might usually spew into the air!
