What is the impact of toilet seats on the spread of communicable disease?

Toilet seats have almost zero impact on the spread of communicable disease. Although of course if there are smears on the seat you should clean it or use a different one, even in the case that you encounter disease on a seat, your skin is almost always an effective barrier between you and anything left there. You should be careful if you have open wounds on your buttocks, and shouldn't wipe the seat and then yourself with the same paper, but if you have an uncompromised immune system, a toilet seat should not be a dangerous thing. The most important thing is to wash your hands thoroughly.
