A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.

Because 2/3 people wash their hands after going to the bathroom, shaking hands with a 1000 people could be deadly. lol

Never thought of it like that

"Wash your hands, number one! And make it so if you've had a number two as well!"

If true that is a scary percentage. I remember getting food poisoning once and thinking some scumbag cook didn't wash his/her hands.

Patrick Stewart doesnt shake hands because:

Statistics

•2/3 of adults in the US wash hands after using the bathroom.
•1 in 4 adults don’t wash hands after changing diapers.
•Less than 1/2 of Americans wash hands after cleaning up after pets.
•1 in 3 wash hands after sneezing/coughing.
•Less than 1 in 5 wash hands after touching money.
•1 in 3 E.coli occurrences is caused from not washing hands before handling food.

Ok after reading that link I'm definitely going the way of Patrick Stewart. I used to think Stromberg in The Spy Who Loved Me was just being crazy. But I was always leaning towards having an assistant tell someone I prefer not to shake hands too. Now it's a rule. Forget being rude. 1/3 is far too many people. Those other stats are crazy too.

I watch Chef Ramsay tear restaurants apart about keeping rotten food and other poor hygiene. But not washing hands is still something that is so unbelievable it's shocking. Only once have I noticed a girl come out of a bathroom without me hearing the sound of water. I left in a hurry...
