Is it worth closing the lid on a toilet before flushing? in c/[email protected]

It makes sense in some regards because with the lid closed you don't have air flow so therefore you would have microdroplets suspended in the air in the bowl. I'd rather a longer loiter time in the bowl than dispersion into the greater area.

Yes. Link cites researchers and institution. https://microbiologysociety.org/news/society-news/does-putting-the-lid-down-when-flushing-the-toilet-really-make-a-difference.html

Ninja edit: Does not eliminate but greatly reduces. Appears "Worth it."
