Press release journalism, innit. Cleaning company (Initial Washroom Hygiene) says you need more 'washroom' cleaning, otherwise bacteria.
Bacteria and viruses cover every surface we touch and yes, we transfer them. The majority do us no harm. Generally this time of the year it's best to avoid sticking your fingers in your mouth.
(That said, I don't get the bog-room soap dodgers, it's take a few moments to at least rinse your hands, and please a bit of soap after a number 2.)
