    Not so much the minimum wage earner as the one who travels a lot. The rate of disease transmission via person going from Fla-Rio with a 1 hour lay over in Puerto Rico has been subject to untold airborne pathogens. The money passed from customer 1-2 has changed hands approximately 1K times in a week. Every time you walk through the supermarket you have walked into X amount of particulates from another shopper who sneezed, or coughed. In a room of 25 people 1 is a confirmed carrier of TB.

    The number 1 cause of disease transmission is..............................Lack of hand washing.

    Read the book Out Break came out in 87.
    America is complacent regarding small outbreaks of illness, RE: dog food, infant formula etc from China, Lysteria most recently from Southern CO. Each and every scenario is brushed under the carpet by CDC and other agencies.
    TIN FOIL Hat Time.
    Each and every incident has the potential for a biological or chemical attack. We respond with out a care and go on our way. One day the threat will be real and then what?

    ^^^That part is worse than Prions. How many people have gone out to eat, and then got diarrhea? Ya, you ate someone's **** basically... Anyway, every time I see some little **** making my food without gloves on I refuse it at the counter and tell them to make the guy making the food put gloves on. I can't stand that kind of crap.

    id be careful going down the road you guys are going down. if you start being THAT paranoid, youre life is going to suck pretty soon. what you guys are talking about are EXTREMELY rare situations and cases. extremely. you have way higher chances of getting thousands of other things. if you want to be careful, you really need to live in the middle of nowhere, grow your own food, wear surgical gloves at all times, and rarely leave your house.

    Also cook your food throughly and if you are in the third world country watch out for uncooked water - as sometimes that's the only mean to sterilize it. I was in hospital for 4 weeks out of my 6 week vacation in 1995 thanks to contaminated water.
