Since when does washing ones' hands and expecting cleanliness make one a germaphobe?

Why are you guys arguing over personal standards and preferences with regard to cleanliness. They are PERSONAL standards. HE would wash each grape in detergent and rinse carefully before eating. You would wipe the rat crap off it and pop it into your mouth. To each his own.

If you are bothered by staff sweeping nearby, simply tell them to stop, that it is interfering with your dining pleasure. If they won't stop, tell them you won't be paying the bill.

If your eating at Taco Bell and someone cleaning the place ruins your day, well, I'll just leave it there.

I have two rules:

Wash your hands and don't drink downstream of the herd.

By ignoring sanitary measures apparently.

Let's not go moly moly here. There are ways to clean floors that are less obtrusive to customers plates and nostrils than a dry broom.

How about a moist mop dipped in a mild solution of bleach.

Try to be opened minded for solutions.

That I agree with. Very reasonable and satisfies both parties.

You figure washing your hands get's rid of germs? Sad. Google is your friend.

This has got to be the best funny post. Can't stop splitting my gut laughing.

This is why men from the Middle East never eat with their left hand. It's the hand they use to wash their behind with.

" Surprise Surprise Surprise " as Gomer Pyle would say to the innocent people on here.

Depends on whether it contains peanuts or cashews.

A single gram of human feces—which is about the weight of a paper clip—can contain one trillion germs. Waterninja can handle that easily.

I love articles like these... Yes, basic hygiene is wonderful, but when science becomes "could" or "may", I have to chuckle. Kids are walking, talking germ factories. CDC needs to get it's poop together - pardon the pun.

Quote:
Handwashing with soap could protect about 1 out of every 3 young children who get sick with diarrhea 2, 3 and almost 1 out of 5 young children with respiratory infections like pneumonia 3, 4.
So... What about the other 2/3 that get sick with diarrhea? Or the other 4/5 with respiratory infections?


Back in the 1800's, they learned not to poop upstream of your water supply, that spreads cholera.

Lets look at Haiti and the cholera epidemic in 2010? Some 7000 dead, couple of hundred thousand sick? And all due to what? Outhouses built beside a river that leaked, and UN peacekeepers sick with the bacteria - yeah, we haven't learned the basics yet.

What's your point? The CDC article is BS?
Could is the past of can. I could not find the word may in the article.

There are many other causes that may/could make up for the other 2/3rds:

• Allergies to certain foods
• Diabetes
• Diseases of the intestines (such as Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis)
• Eating foods that upset the digestive system
• Infection by bacteria (the cause of most types of food poisoning) or other organisms
• Medications
• Overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism)
• Some cancers
• Surgery
• Bacterial infections
• Trouble absorbing certain nutrients, also called “malabsorption”

I'm not sure I understand your reasoning here in context of the OP.

Good handwashing early in life may help improve child development in some settings
May help? Seriously? I love the CDC's science. May, could, should is not science. Who is writing these articles?


And the context, basic hygiene is wonderful. The UN screwed up in Haiti - with basic know information and killed how many?

Thanks, first cup of coffee. Take a look at the references listed for where the basic info was derived from.

As far as the UN goes, it doesn't matter how many times you tell a group of humans what the right thing to do is there will always be those that will screw it up.

Here's the study they were referring to:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22986783
Quote:
Although growth was similar across groups, children randomized to the handwashing promotion during their first 30 months of age attained global developmental quotients 0.4 SDs greater than those of control children at 5 to 7 years of age. These gains are comparable to those of at-risk children enrolled in publicly funded preschools in the United States and suggest that handwashing promotion could improve child well-being and societal productivity.
Nothing wrong with may, could or should in science.

So was it the soap or the treated drinking water? Or a combination of both?

I would think treated drinking water would have a better effect on overall health in an area like Karachi, Pakistan.
