So much for coming out with clean hands

Hand dryers installed in public bathrooms might not be quite as hygienic as you'd hope they are. While hand dryers (and we're talking the effective ones, not the ones that blow out less hot air than you could with your own lungs) certainly score points for eco-friendliness, as Nichole Ward demonstrated, they're not exactly the height of cleanliness.In a post from 2017, Ward photographed the result of an experiment she did that had pretty terrifying results. She placed the open plate of a petri dish in an enclosed hand dryer in a public toilet for three minutes, then left the dish for a few days. When she returned to look at it, this is what had grown:"DO NOT EVER dry your hands in those things again," Ward warned in her original post. "This is the several strains of possible pathogenic fungi and bacteria that you바카라 게임 웹사이트re swirling around your hands, and you think you바카라 게임 웹사이트re walking out with clean hands." Adding that her post was simply designed to raise awareness, not to instill fear, Ward was keen to bring the likely lack of hygiene to people's attention. But what's a better alternative? Paper towels in theory 바카라 게임 웹사이트 but it's not good for the environment to waste that much paper.Hopefully a hygienic, eco-friendly solution (that doesn't require us standing there waiting for our hands to dry) will be available soon.
