18 Times More Bacteria Than Toilet Handle? FOR REAL?

You must be wondering, what is this little devil that has 18 times more bacteria than a toilet handle. Come on, we usually wash our hands with soap after touching these toilet handles, and next we sanitise them. This seriously-unimaginable device has 18 times more???? Does that mean we have got to clean our hands 18 times after we touch these as well? Lets take a look at what researchers have to say.

 

Based on a research by Which? magazine, it suggests that 14.7 million out of the 63 million mobiles in use in the UK could be potentially health hazardous. 

Hygiene expert Jim Francis who did the tests also mentioned "The levels of potentially harmful bacteria on one mobile were off the scale. That phone needs sterilising."
