Rarely! And I wonder if the fact that I get tiny little exposures to sick people almost every day has allowed me build up immunity. By contrast, teachers get sick all the time by being exposed to germ-infested slobbering kids all day long during the school year.<br /><br />Therefore, being a pharmacist has boosted my immune system!Crazy RxManhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07077488214299929481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-44657809409849215242012-09-07T11:13:37.621-04:002012-09-07T11:13:37.621-04:00@Packer: the best time to let people see you use h...@Packer: the best time to let people see you use hand sanitizer in church is right BEFORE the sign of peace, so they know you aren't trying to share your own germs!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-71058480412304406512012-09-07T02:06:58.405-04:002012-09-07T02:06:58.405-04:00There was a report on H1N1 that it was only infect...There was a report on H1N1 that it was only infective when spread through the air (ie inhaled), due to the extremely small size of the particles through which it spread. So hand washing in that scenario was not really recommended, but masks sure were.<br />Also, I wash my hands compulsively around kids, but I caught every damn cold that every kid I've ever touched has ever had. The worst was a kid with some exotic overseas African Influenza A that sneezed right into my face.
