It is quite normal to keep everyday personal items in the toilet but is that really the best?
Microorganisms which are harmful to the health are often abundant in the toilet. This is why proper hand hygiene is emphasized after using the restroom.
Dr Aproko, in his video explained why it is important to close the toilet with the toilet cover while flushing.

In the process of flushing the toilet, water containing very tiny particles of dangerous microorganisms can splash on your toothbrush, sponge, and even underwear.
These particles are so small in size and cannot be seen with the naked eye.
What do you think happens when you put the same toothbrush inside your mouth with all those microorganisms?
Cover your toilet when flushing
The proper way to flush the toilet is to cover the lid and then flush so that the microorganisms that escape will not be able to do so because they are trapped by the cover.
If your toilet doesn’t have a cover, do not keep your toothbrush inside the toilet. Keep it in a safe place so that you can stay healthy.
