Wonder who did not wash his hands

Or what food was contaminated.. Have been noticing as of late lots of restaurants and grocery store bathrooms have either no soap in the dispensers or no way to dry your hands after washing them. Carrying germicide is a necessity. We keep ours in our vehicles and use it each time we return to the car from public places where we have touched anything at all. Paranoid? I don't think so - there's no shortage of people with no personal cleanliness and no shortage of people who want us incapacitated running around the country.

Leprosy in the USA

Leprosy and TB Fast Growing in the USA

The above article says that there are now 7,000 cases of Leprosy and possibly more and US citizens never out of the country have contracted it. More reason than ever to keep your hands clean!

This is totally awful and so under-reported.
