It has it's risks, yes.
They can pick up bug from outside that they simply cannot fight off on their own.
One of the worst is a bug that I can't remember the name, that can come from cat wee.

But saying that, i'm sure that there is still an awful lot of bugs in general on carpets/sofas. Especially if you're a regular public transport user.
