WhAt We ToUcH EvErYdAy

Have you ever realized how germs get spread so fast? Well I just realized that people go through a heap of touching throughout the day that help spread them. When you think about it, its really gross to realize the things we expose our bodies to everyday without even thinking. In public places everyone touches the same things causing even more germs to be spread. thank God for our immune systems, or we would all be sick puppies all the time. From the beginning of your day you wake up and touch the sink knob, which many other people have touched after they used the restroom. Breakfast is made, and most breakfast foods are touched with your hands, like bagels, granola bars, pop tarts and so on. So right now we have germs traveling from the bathroom to your mouth. When you go out for the day to school or to work, you touch every door with your bare hands that you have to go through, not thinking about how many other peple have touched that same door just that morning who have bad hygiene habits. They may have used the restroom without washing their hands, sneezed or coughed into their hands then grabbed the door furthering their sickness to your precious palms. Someone may have scratched a spot on their body that isnt seen by the public, cleaned up some throw up from a bad hangover, took out some month old trash, changed a diaper, missed the tissue while wiping and got their hand, sweated everywhere from a morning jog, or any other disgusting thing lazy, or normal humans may do on a dialy basis. After everything i just listed, think about the kinds of things we do after touching a public door knob, keyboard, car handle, shopping cart, or tongs from a public restaurants buffet. We go and touch other things like our personal items. After we expose our bodies to all those harmful germs we go and touch our cell phones, purses, pens and pencils, faces, other peoples hands, or eat a snack with our hands. Then we go and pass the process touching everything that we need to complete a daily activity. Picking up our children and touching their faces while you kiss their cheek and handing them food to put in thri mouths. Then coming home and tracking the germ trail around the house for them to pick up and get sick by. People touch alot of things throughout the day and alot of different germs get spread. Thats why the simpliest. most easy way to keep germs from spreading is by washing our hands often. Boy those scientists werent far off when they told everybody to wash their hands with antibacterial soap were they.
