Where can I find information on infectious diseases spread through nose blowing in the shower?


I'm currently living in a dorm setting where we have 6 individual showers available to us. Every morning, one individual insists on blowing her nose in the shower, despite the signs I have posted. I work in the medical field, and although I have searched for documentation on communicable diseases spread through phlegm, I cannot seem to find anything about it. I would like to present this individual with some facts on her disgusting habit so that we do not end up with 20 ill females, and I would greatly appreciate some help. If you can find any links with this information, please let me know. Thank you!

I usually find relevant information from the Centers for Disease Control.

Google it. If you cant find anything then theres no problem with it.
