Oh jeez, have you seen pictures of the inside of NYC potable water mains? The solution to pollution is dilution and I absolutely guarantee that water is halogenated as all municipal water in America is. Halogenating the water absolutely would kill any infinitesimal bacteria on that stick. There’s more bacteria at the end of your kitchen tap than there is on the end of that stick.
