The UN says washing hands with water alone is not enough "because you fail to wash off the germs".

"We are recommending hand-washing with soap," Ms Dooley said.

From what I've witnessed in many a restaurant, store, and church bathroom, this is something that needs to be preached!!! :shock:

pretty gross to go to the bathroom, and as you (a man) are standing there, see another finish, then leave, by way of the door knob/plate/handle - without washing their hands. even worse in a restaurant, when you finish washing, and back out the door as to not touch what they did - to see them reaching in the candy/mint-bowl!! arghghhg blarghghg

A doctor's favorite joke:

Do you know how to tell if somone you meet in the restroom is a doctor? He washes his hands first.

I actually have a friend who refuses to touch anything with his hands in a public restroom. It's all elbows, knees, and feet. He sometimes even waits next to the door waiting for someone to open it so he can dart out before it closes.
