 'GMA' Germ Test Shows Public Seats Full of Bacteria
(CLICKABLE)

From the article:

""There were so many organisms on these seats that I would say that they were never cleaned or rarely cleaned, and that is something to be reckoned with," Tierno said. 

Nearly 28 percent of the seats contained traces of E. coli.

More than half, 52 percent, of the samples showed indications of fecal matter."

"The SO-Bad Seats: These seats contained high bacteria counts, including E Coli. (The strains of E. coli we found are not the deadly type, but are an indicator of the presence of fecal matter.)
Movie theater seat
Airport lounge seat
Airplane seat
Rental car seat
Park bench 

 

The Not-So-Bad Seats: These seats contained low bacteria counts and/or harmless bacteria that will not make you sick.

New York City taxi seat
San Francisco restaurant seat
Hotel lobby seat
Hotel room seat
BART seat
Toilet seat  "
