Tag someone who eats at their desk, they might think twice after reading this! 😱😱😱
❗The average office desk is home to 20,000 germs per square inch. It harbours 400 times more germs than the toilet, which gets cleaned and disinfected regularly.
❗The skin sheds ten million cells a day. Some of these get transported by our hands onto keyboards, mice, push buttons for telephones, faxes and photocopiers…all of which are shared.
❗If you use someone’s computer and then put your hand in your mouth without realizing it - you’re effectively eating dead skin.
❗The average person in an office touches about 300 surfaces every 30 minutes. In the world of viruses even kissing is safer than shaking hands.
❗It is estimated that telephone ear and mouthpieces carry up to 1,400 bacteria.
❗The office desk is an ideal breeding ground for bacteria, which feast all day on leftover crumbs from desktop diners, and peak in number after lunch. The desktop effectively becomes a “bacteria cafeteria”.
❗Cold and flu viruses can survive for up to 3 days on surfaces such as telephones, desktops, photocopiers, printers and other high-touch surfaces.
❗Germs transmitted from a sneeze or cough can travel up to 3 feet. When they land on surfaces such as keyboards and telephones, they infect for up to 3 days
