Page "Toilet paper" Paragraph 40

According to a news report by The Epoch Times in 2004, 37. 5 % of toilet paper tested from Guangdong and Jiangsu provinces showed high levels of bacteria commonly found in human waste.

A manager from one of the agencies involved in testing, Guangdong Consumer Associates, blamed " unsanitary raw materials used in production " for the high bacteria counts.

Chinese hospital experts have warned that use of contaminated toilet paper can result in skin and gynecological infections.
