This knowledge used to be acquired by most family members as part of simply growing up, and reinforced in grade school. Most girls (and boys) had a well-developed sense of what\u2019s \u201ctoo icky\u201d by 8 years old.<\/p>\n<p>Of course now we post ugly pictograms posted at eye level everywhere so no one slips up in the restroom before returning to do food prep. And hope the directive sticks at least 10 minutes \u2013 who knows what really happens? I personally never touch any public door handles without paper or a hankerchief. My dermatologist is adamant about avoiding public surfaces. Any knowledge of microbiology plus valuing your time and health makes this a no-brainer- Sorry !Jeb!, you\u2019re backsliding on your upbringing!<\/p>\n<p>* In the office where I work, some obnoxious germophobe uses a paper towel to open the bathroom door and then drops the paper towel on the floor inside the door and walks away. Evidently, his idea is that the janitor or someone else is supposed to pick up his germy paper towel and throw it into a waste basket.<\/p>\n<p>The janitor began putting a small waste basket next to the bathroom door. The germophobe continues to drop his germy paper towel onto the floor, missing the waste basket.<\/p>\n<p>Such is the mentality of some germophobes. It\u2019s part of a larger mental disorder.<\/p>\n<p>I think I know who this particular germophobe is. He\u2019s an immigrant from India.<\/p>\n<p>* I finding excess concern about germs to be extremely effeminate and annoying. But we all have our neuroses, and I\u2019ll happily forgive Trump his. I\u2019ll cut breaks for a patriot, that I won\u2019t for a traitor. Gee, funny how that works.<\/p>\n<p>* I knew Trump was serious about running when I saw him working a line, shaking hands.<\/p>\n<p>* Fifteen years ago, I didn\u2019t even know there was such a thing as Purell or Germ-X. I just carried a few enveloped alcohol swabs around with me. Then my hands started drying out and cracking. After that, when my kids were born, I saw all the nurses using sanitizer. Now you see sanitizer everywhere.<\/p>\n<p>Ten percent of hepatitis c (the often lethal variety) patients don\u2019t fit into any of the profile groups that usually contract the disease. That means there are about 400,000 people in the US who, for the most part, don\u2019t know really know how they got sick. That\u2019s equivalent to a city the size of Tulsa.<\/p>\n<p>Many probably got it by grabbing a door handle in a public place that had been contaminated, and they had some sort of open sore that became infected. It\u2019s great to see that most big grocery stores have wipes and sanitizer stations by their carts nowadays, but lots of folks still just go up and grab the cart. Kind of foolish, when you think about it. Trump is smart compared to them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comments to Steve Sailer: * An understanding of the Germ Theory of Disease is something all newcomers need to be exposed to before they begin working.
