"Who would wash in this filthy toxic river?" Well, nowadays it would be poor uneducated population clinging to tradition. Originally? People wanting to live despite living in an era long before antibiotics. River Gang is(or rather was) one of the few naturally occuring habitats for bacteriophage colonies ie viruses that specifically hunt and kill bacteria. They weren't known in the west for a few generations, but finally after collapse of USSR Poland and several other former Warsaw Pact member had finally translated the century of research data to anglophiles:D Nowadays they are used in cases when bacteria in question have high tolerance to antibiotics or immunity to most common antibiotics. In case of antibiotics collapse(ie most common bacteria in the wild get immune to all available forms of antibiotics due to their overuse in animal farming by corporations) they are your best hope. Problem is that they're slow to grow and also need to be specialized to work at their best. Which combined means that almost nobody has a ready supply of them. Except Russia. Part of soviet legacy is to keep a ready bank of those for most common bacterial diseases in case of disaster. Poland probably had one as well, but idk if they kept it going.

@kbotah2023 if the elephant came into your home, floor wouldn't be the only thing shat upon and the elephant wouldn't be the sole perpetrator:D

@Xxyurimxx the difference being that the moment somebody turns Jerusalem into waste dumping site, there would be massive outcries in media all over the globe from USA to Russia to Malaysia, fundraisers, relieve help sending and so on. It's one of the examples of why ecoterrorism fails - why try to save a single whale with ship ramming when you can dump used needles on a beach where billionaires spend weekends to create local precedent and ban on polluting the beaches in whole country in matter of hours?;)
