I’m amused that Dirty School Toilets a Risk to European Children paints the problem as one European kids face:
School toilets in Britain and Sweden are so dirty, smelly and dangerous that many students avoid using them throughout the day, increasing their risk for problems such as urinary tract infections, a new report shows.
[...]
More than half of boys and one in three girls in the UK said they avoided the toilets while at school, blaming poor conditions and fear of bullying. In Sweden, one in four children said they stayed away from the toilets for similar reasons.
Sounds like the school toilets I remember. In particular:
In the UK, 21% of toilets were not flushed in the morning, and 69% not flushed later in the day. Broken taps and lack of hot water were also found. In Sweden, the researchers said seven out of eight school toilets smelt of urine, six had no soap and six were not adequately cleaned.
I don’t think prison toilets are as bad as school toilets.
