#I've been checking iWasPoisoned and so far no one else or the health dept have cited either place as an outbreak for anything

I wish contact tracing was still a thing AND they were tracing every major contagious disease rn. Would love to scream in the left ear of the rotten pig who didn't wash their hands and gave me norovirus

#I'm suspecting it was food born illness #i had takeout the two nights before i had to go to the hospital #but there wasn't enough proof at the time to be able to report it #I've been checking iWasPoisoned and so far no one else or the health dept have cited either place as an outbreak for anything #why is hand washing so goddamn hard for people to figure out #step 1) wet hands. warm to hot water is best but if all you have is cold water then that's better than nothing #step 2) apply soap #step 3) lather the soap all over your hands. make sure to get underneath your fingernails #step 4) continue lathering the soap while your hands are under the water stream for twenty seconds. sing happy birthday or something to time #step 5) dry hands on paper towel if avaliable or hand blower if not. DO NOT WIPE HANDS ON CLOTHES IF YOU WORK IN FOOD #voila you just saved another immunocompromised person from suffering from a preventable infection! #you're a goddamn hero!
