Did YOU?
I mean, how many of us go out to EAT at restaurants with a smartphone or tablet in one hand and a burger in the other??? We even give our KIDS these gadgets at restaurants just to keep them still and quiet!!!
Well, come to find out, Scientists swabbed 30 tablets, 30 smartphones and an office toilet seat for bacteria & what were the horrifying results???
*Drum Roll
The filthiest of the Tablets showed more than 600, yes, 600 of a certain type of bacteria that also causes food poisoning! The nastiest Smartphone had 140! (Gross! Which is still a danger according to the Health Protection Agency). And last, but shockingly least, the office toilet had less than 20!!!
(WHAAAAAAAAAAAT???)
But lets focus more on the smartphones, I mean, think about it, aren't our Smartphones stuck to our sides, like, ALL DAY? Whatever we're touching throughout the day is going onto our smartphones!!!
They say iPhones and Droids are "germ magnets". So every time you place your smartphone to your face, that's if you're one of those that actually ANSWER a phone call without letting it go to voicemail to see if it's important enough to call back and offer a text message as a reply, you are exposing your face to MILLIONS of germs!!!
The minute your BFF texts you, or you make a payment online, or even notice a bill collector calling that you choose to hit the decline button, you're in contact with those germs and bacteria!!!
So, what can you do about those Millions of germs festering and living la vida loca on your smartphone screen??? I'd recommend using a non-corrosive anti-bacterial wipe made for electronics! And then, I know this may sound harsh to some, but, WASH YOUR HANDS throughout the day!!! Sheesh! LOL.
And I would DEFINITELY recommend those 2 steps before going out to eat or sitting at the dinner table at home, assuming you actually eat at a table at home and not in your bed like I do!
