It sounds like a strange joke, but it is meant very seriously: Doctors warn that the coronavirus is transmitted even when you puff. Several studies reveal exactly how this can happen and why we should also be careful when using the toilet.

Researchers at the University of Oklahoma found out at the beginning of the year that flushing also creates a kind of “aerosolized toilet plume” that can contain various pathogens and transmit them into the environment to anyone who then uses the toilet.
