A midstream urine collector is disclosed having an open-ended funnel-shaped body with a cup mounted therein, the cup having an upwardly-directed mouth over which a cover of water-soluble material extends. The cup is substantially smaller than the flow passage through the body so as to permit the downward flow of urine through the passage past the cup. A deflector in the form of a disc-shaped shield is mounted within the funnel-shaped body above the water-soluble cover to protect the cover against rupture that might otherwise occur if the cover were impacted squarely by a forceful stream of urine as a patient commences voiding into the collector.
