Although closing the lid cannot completely prevent particles from escaping, experts still recommend combining lid-down flushing with regular cleaning, proper handwashing and good ventilation to effectively reduce exposure to pathogens—a particularly important practice for people with weakened immune systems and healthcare facilities. Facts: - Researchers at Australia’s Flinders University reviewed 22 studies published in Science of the Total Environment and found that toilet-flush aerosols can travel horizontally about 150 centimeters and reach a vertical height of 163 centimeters. - Particles produced by flushing a toilet can travel at about 2 meters per second and remain airborne for at least 20 seconds. - Using laser light and high-speed photography, researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder found that particles can rise to a height of about 150 centimeters in just 8 seconds. - Toilet lids are not completely airtight, and aerosols produced during flushing may still escape through the gap between the lid and the seat. - Aerosols produced by flushing may contain microorganisms such as Salmonella, Legionella and norovirus. ## “We’d accept being ruled by the Chinese Communist Party!” MAC poll finds more than a million Taiwanese accept “one country, two systems”; Huang Wei-han warns of a troubling sign - Published: 2026-10-27T16:32:46+09:00 - Source: Taiwan | 風傳媒 - Original: https://www.storm.mg/article/11176079 - Article page: https://ainews.idaeo.ai/a/4448840-en.html - anchor: #n3601159 Veteran media personality Huang Wei-han analyzed the Mainland Affairs Council’s October poll and found that 7.2%—about 1 million people—agreed to accept “one country, two systems” under Communist Party rule.
