It's not just coughs and sneezes that spread diseases. One single bacteria cell can multiply to become more than 8 million cells in less than 24 hours. Just imagine what's on the toilet door handle you just touched, the taps and even on other people's hands...

I get somebody else to open the toilet door for me.  I'll be buggered if I'm touching my bits after touching the door handle.

It is hard to live in a sterile world....... maybe we should do as a forefathers did.....expose to everything , so the body can build up a resistance to these bugs........ they had less visits to the doctors than we do.......like John, I was bought up on a farm and cleanliness wasn't on the top of our lists.....
