Will the toilet in the hotel be directly infected?

Sitting directly in the hotel toilet itself is not infected with sexually transmitted diseases. Because the bacteria or viruses that cause sexually transmitted diseases are not easy to survive in the outside world and cannot spread through daily contact.

However, due to poor disinfection, there may be human papillomavirus in hotel toilets. If the skin is damaged, sitting in the toilet may be infected with human papillomavirus. In addition, if the hand comes into contact with the bacteria on the toilet, it may also cause some gastrointestinal infections.

Therefore, it is suggested to pay attention to health protection when using hotel toilets, such as using disposable toilet pads to avoid direct contact with the toilet surface. If you feel unwell, you should seek medical advice immediately and inform the doctor of your travel history.
