Coughs and sneezes spread diseases

Catriona

I was reminded of this earlier when I went to the chemist. A man sneezed and didn't cover his mouth with a tissue and I saw the snot go all over the table in front of him. He sneezed again this time in to his hand and then was joined by another man, shook his hand with the sneezed on hand. 

*Shuddering* 

This - this is why I have a huge fear of even going near people. Germs are a big trigger for me.

When I got home I washed my hands and changed clothes. There's a lot of germs going round at the moment.

  • Slightly going off-piste, my hands often get oily working on cars, I can tolerate that. What drives me insane is having food on my hands. I’m the person who eats a pizza with a knife and fork.

    If I was in the habit of tinkering with cars, I think I would be the other way. I reckon I would spend more time cleaning the oil off my hands with the likes of Swarfega, than actually tinkering on the cars. Laughing

    Food on my hands doesn't really bother me, although that's not to say that I enjoy the sensation of it. What does bother me is if I end up getting food on clean clothes, especially if it's something like soup or sauce.
