Summary:
- A study by Singapore Management University (SMU) found that coffee shop toilets in Singapore are the dirtiest among more than 2,600 toilets surveyed across the island.
- The study, which involved testing for the presence of bacteria, showed that coffee shop toilets had the highest levels of bacterial contamination compared to other public toilet facilities.
- Researchers attribute the poor hygiene in coffee shop toilets to factors such as high human traffic, lack of proper cleaning and maintenance, and the tendency of patrons to not flush or wash their hands properly.
