I've read that sewage that's "partially treated" still contains 
bacteria, even after "the solids" are settled out and the stuff is 
flushed with chlorine. But does anyone out there have links to what it 
looks like and exactly what's left in it that's harmful? Trying to 
answer a reader's question/criticism.

Thanks.
