Most people probably can't read the article because its in Nature, but basically it says that non-tuberculosis mycobacteria live in showerheads and the bacteria can be harmful to immunodeficient people and that chlorine and soap only serve to eliminate competition so bugs like these can grow instead!

What a nice thought.
