    Nothing that lives in sewage is clean, least not the things that clean themselves with their mouths. What makes something unclean is not dirt, it’s the pathogens.

      Exposure empowers the immune system so the “dirty” rat is likely to cary less pathogens than many people 😬

        They’re more likely to be immune than us to what they carry.
