And Your Point Is?
As I was washing my hands after using the facilities at Bugaboo Magazine, I remembered something disturbing the infectious disease doctor said to me this morning. He was telling me about some sort of food-borne illness and said that people who are exposed to it should wash their hands after using the bathroom. To which I replied, "Shouldn't they be doing that anyway?" And I swear he stared at me like I was an idiot.

Not that this has anything to do with what you posted, but I just opened my web browser to find, blown up for all to see on The New York Times site, that Anna Nicole Smith has died!
I recognize the importance of our mourning the loss of a former Playboy Playmate and trashy reality TV star, but c'mon. Surely more important things are going on in the world...?
I am fascinated by infectious disease (especially staph) and read an article about one of the problems in hospital-related infections is that docs fail to wash their hands. They think of others as dirty - it couldn't be them! They are far too superior for germs to linger.
I read an article similar to Rebecca's AND Suebob's. It was 2 different articles, actually. 1 saying that Anna is dead. 1 saying that hospitals have come to rely too much on liquid hand sanitizer, when sometimes their hands just need a good scrubbing.
Point is, wash your hands after learning about Anna's death. Especially while in a hospital.
super des is so right. I washed my hands as soon as I heard Anna had died..
ummm, hello captian obvious..
Hi just saw a show the other day on how doctors are the worst for not washing their hands: (that'd be MarketPlace on CBC). Disgusting!
