Reduction in Air -Conditioning Usage?

[Goofyernmost]

Most of the time transfer of viruses or bacteria occurs via hand to hand contact or touching things that other people have touched. I am more concerned about where a person's hand has just been than I am about the plume.
Ever see someone in a doctor's office cover their mouth (as they should) with their hand and then pick up the magazine they were reading? I never touch the magazines in a doctor's office and the last thing I do on the way out the door is take advantage of the hand sanitizer they provide.
So yes, hand sanitizers do have tremendous benefit.

As with everything else, it has a time where it is beneficial. Doctors offices and hospitals are a prime example of where it is a very positive thing. I'm talking about toothbrushes in my bathroom not a black plague ward. Our mouth has more bacteria in it at any given time then can be measured. Hand Sanitation is not going to help that and that was the discussion. So many of those "bad things" are already in our bodies because we are the carriers.

I thought this thread had gone off the rails, but then the one about balloons just got deleted, heh.

Never change Wdwmagic.

I don't know why my post about the balloon got deleted. Maybe the moderator sees no problem with releasing balloons into the environment. Of all the crazy posts on here, that whole post gets deleted? Why?

Actually they are now realizing that hospitals where the doctors and nurses use hand sanitizer instead of washing their hands between patients have a much higher case of postoperative infections. Hand washing is always the best way to go. Hand sanitizer should only be used if there's no soap and water, not instead of it.

I dont think it had anything to do with the balloon topic, I think it was because everyone was talking about that trip report. Though I agree it's very odd that it's gone, not like a little off-topic is rare around here.

I missed posts about a trip report since I am at WDW now and only check the boards on the evening. They usually just delete off topic posts, not the whole thread.

AC in both July and September was more than adequate to me. Caveat, I lost 50# and I am always cold now.
