Saw something on FB about this but did a quick search. Yuk.
For once I agree with Dyson - it's shonky hand washing that's the problem
Shonky hand washing is endemic and will remain so. Their technology simply maximises the dispersal of the pathogens.
My pet moan about public toilets is the number that require you to pull the door open as you leave, thus handily recontaminating those who've actually gone to the trouble of washing their hands.
How many germs are you going to have on your hands when you've just washed them?

Recontaminating? It's a door handle, you touch dozens every day. You're going to shit yourself when you hear about money.
I wonder how many of you lot precious about touching your nob wouldn't think twice about expecting their partners to drink directly from the bottle. Good grief.
I did a conference 20 years ago where a similar study was discussed - a study financed by Kimberly Clark........
...wouldn’t think twice about expecting their partners to drink directly from the bottle.
Well not if someone else has been drinking from it before, and sure as heck not if they're not going to finish it and put it back for someone else.

20 years ago?? Obviously all the attendees have died of some sort of plague or other by now. I know I have.

True, but one facing inwards in a public lav is more likely to be covered in aerosolised norovirus than your average. And for the record, I'm fine with the varied and exciting flora of my own nob, just slightly suspicious about doing a Morgan/Trump interface with the previous occupant of the cubicle. 😉
Oh. So that's how you get smileys now. 🙂
At work, the tiles below the hand dryer are black with some kind of growth. Its disgusting.
I was washing my hands in public bogs the other day, next to an Airblade and it was shoving wet air and pissy droplets back off the blokes hands into my face. GAG>
Mythbusters tested this years ago and concluded that hand dryers are far less hygienic than paper towels.
Definitive proof right there 😂

Read that as "pussy" at first 😯
If you’ve just washed your hands, including rinsing them, then exactly how are the pathogens, which you’ve just washed off in the sink, going to spread?
Considering air dryers blow straight down towards your feet, not up and back towards your face.
Unless you’re trying to dry your face at the same time...
Having said that, some hand dryers are so hopelessly inefficient that it takes five minutes to get your hands dry, so paper towels would be much more efficient anyway.
