According
to reports we have seen on the internet if you work in an
office and people share your computer, your computer keyboard
could cause life threatening illnesses.
Which?
Magazine, a UK consumer activist organization, tested keyboards
in its own offices in London and out of the 33 keyboards
it swabbed, one had 5 times the number of bacteria it found
on one of its toilet seats. The keyboard was apparently
so bad that health and safety officers quarantined it.
Experts
claim that colds and even gastroenteritis could be passed
on in an office through the keyboard.
Eating
food, going to the toilet without washing your hands and
sneezing could be to blame.
E.coli,
coliforms, staphylococcus aureus and enterobacteria were
all found in the tests.
Could
Qwerty tummy be the number one sickie excuse in the coming
months...?
