Secure germs

When a report was carried out on 'nibbles' on the bars of pubs, some years
ago, it was found that there were often traces of urine and bacteria on the
nuts and crisps as a result of customers fingers not being clean.

Urban legend.

I wonder if anyone has done a similar survey on Chip-and-Pin keys?

Jackie...

Certainly makes you wonder???

You're not supposed to put them in your mouth, you know.

Frederick Williams...

Bacteria are to be found everywhere, so what?

We've been using money (notes and coins) for absolutely ages, so I don't
see that much has changed. Just look at now filthy some of your loose
change looks - then you could have a cause to worry.

Greg Lewin...

for a very long time, I've been in the habit of washing
my hands after handling any money, if at all possible.

Call me obsessive! I don't care! I think it was reading
about money sometimes carrying parasite eggs/cysts that
did it for me. I reckon my immune system can handle the
bacteria ok ...

Sorry if I put you off your tea.

No worries, it'll take a bit more than that these days. :)

Greg Lewin...

perhaps you all made of sterner stuff here ...

Flyiñg Ñuñ 2°°6 +...

Maybe. :)

No idea, but the keys can't be anywhere near as dirty as money...at least

Exactly. Even robbers know to wear gloves

you have some idea where the keys have been :-)
