The further north you go, the more likely you are to have faecal bacteria on your hands
New research has revealed that alarmingly high levels of people are carrying fecal bacteria on their hands. The study, which was carried out on commuters, shows that men in the North of England have markedly less clean hands than their southern counterparts. The results also show 6 per cent of London males have dirty hands, whereas 21 per cent of women had clearly not washed their hands on the morning of the study. Jane talks to Dr Valeries Curtis, Director of the Hygiene Centre at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, London.
