Why you shouldn't take your phones to the toilet..

Sometimes we all takes our phones into the toilet, but it is a very dangerous habit.! You can expose yourself and others to germs like salmonella, E coli & C. "If you wipe your bum then pick up your phone, you may as well not bother washing your hands because all the bacteria you put on your hands will end up back on you hands". Hygeine expert Dr Lisa told so. Basically you just shouldnt(take your phone to the toilet) if you are at all concerned about transfer of viruses and fecal contamination.
Remember viruses do not transfer only by hands, it is the main way but not the only way."Spray could travel around six feet from the flush". Thats why you shouldnt leave your toothbrush close to the toilet or put your phone down close to the toilet roll holder or any shelf that might be close there. By the way germ could survive a couple of day on your phone! Phones heat up a little bit thus creating a warm environment for the bacteria. "if people handle sweets and leave a sticky coating on the phone thats even a better place for the bacteria". So dont forget to wash your hands with aoap and water and leave the phone in your bag before viaiting the toilet.
