Interesting report on rare, but serious and even fatal infections from
people using tap water to clean internal orifices, under the mistaken
belief that it is free of potentially harmful microorganisms <

.
Just because the stuff in the water won’t harm us if we drink it or
bathe in it, doesn’t mean it can be safely inserted anywhere else.
