English Version:
Drinking directly from a canned drink without cleaning it can pose a serious health risk. In a rare but real case in North Texas, a woman died after consuming soda directly from a can that had been contaminated with rodent droppings. The cause was leptospirosis, a bacterial infection transmitted through contact with urine from infected animals.
To stay safe:
Always rinse or wipe the top of a can before drinking.
Use a straw when possible.
Store canned drinks in clean, dry places.
