Eugh, so I was on BBC news and accidently stumbled upon this;
It is the sort of news story that will have left many feeling queasy over their breakfast cereal - a study which suggests one in six mobile phones is contaminated with faecal matter.
Researchers at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and Queen Mary, University of London took nearly 400 samples from mobile phones and hands in 12 British cities.
They found 16% of phones and 16% of hands harboured E. coli (Escherichia coli), bacteria which inhabit the human intestines.
The largest proportion of contaminated phones was in Birmingham (41%) while Londoners were caught with the highest proportion of E. coli present on hands (28%).
What.. a lovely thought? Not touching anyone's mobile phone now..kty

This is quite interesting..
I guess it shows you that quite a lot of people decide not to wash their hands properly after they've laid an egg. pukes.
