Flushing the Toilet May Fling Coronavirus

Now if forgetting to sanitize wasn't enough, now you may have to worry about possibly catching coronavirus when you flush the toilet. 

That's right a new study has found that merely flushing the toilet could produce a plume of droplets that could rise up three feet high in the air and possibly give you coronavirus. 

Scientists aren't sure whether or not a public or private restroom can spread the virus, but it seems that in the future common spaces may have to be done over. 

Researchers suggest that if you use a public restroom the best thing to do is close the seat cover to reduce the risk of droplets making you ill.
