And Just How Clean is YOUR Cell Phone?

headshot of young blonde woman with moble phoneWe spend a good portion of our days communicating.  We call people, listen to and respond to voice mail, and we text all from our handy dandy cell phone.  Do you know what else we can do from our cell phones?  Get sick!

Recently doctors and infectious disease specialists found MULTIPLE strands of germs and bacteria on 95% of cell phones tested.

Just think of all the things your cell phone comes in contact with throughout the day:

  • Various surfaces
  • Inside pockets and purses
  • Make-up
  • Saliva
  • Oils
  • Bacteria
  • Stray pieces of lunch and other debris

Since we use our cell phones frequently and they come in CLOSE contact with our face and mouth, prolonged use of an unsanitary cell phone could result in:

  • acne
  • infections including Staph, Meningitis, e-Coli, MRSA and Flu

Buzz word:  Flu…what about the Swine Flu?  Wonder if I can contract it through a grimy cell phone???

Hmmmm.  I’m not taking any chances…think I’ll pick up some disinfectant right away….COME SHOPPING WITH ME!
