Did you know ...
That most workspaces have hundreds of times more bacteria than a toilet seat? Toilets are often cleaned and sterilized on a weekly basis, whereas your workstation may not be. Dirt and bacteria can become trapped in your keyboard, on your mouse, and anywhere around your desk. Many cleaning crews will stay away from the computer area, for fear of damaging equipment. It is up to you to keep your workstation clean and germ free.
Dr. Charles Gerba, a microbiologist at the University of Arizona , discovered that the average office toilet seat had 49 germs per square inch. Desktops had almost 21,000 germs per square inch, and phones had more than 25,000 germs per square inch.
Desks, phones, computer keyboards and your mouse are key germ transfer points because people touch them so often, Gerba said, adding that coughing and sneezing can leave behind “a minefield of viruses”.
IT’S IN THE NEWS!
Keyboards are easily contaminated with germs, which in hospitals, can take the form of antibiotic-resistant pathogens - the so called superbugs, a study suggests.
“The difficulty with keyboards is you can’t pour bleach on them. They don’t work so well when you do that.”
– Keyboards fingered as hospital menace, Calgary Herald, Monday, April 11 2005
History tells us that a major flu pandemic is on the way.
That’s the word from Dwayne Clayden, the assistant to the medical director of Calgary EMS: “Theoretically it could spread across the world in 24 hours...”
The bottom line is that now is the time to prepare...
Computer Keyboard Germs: Your Fingers aren't the Only Things Dancing All Over Your Computer Keyboard
Considering how often fingers come into contact with computer keyboards, it's not surprising that a new study published in Infection Control and Hospital Epidemiology found some pretty gross results.
Twenty-five computers from the University of North Carolina's (UNC) burn intensive care unit, cardiothoracic intensive care unit and six nursing units were tested for bacteria. The researchers found that every computer keyboard was contaminated with two or more microorganisms.
The bacteria that was found was the type that could be detrimental to hospital patients:
All keyboards tested positive for a staph bacterium called coagulase-negative staphylococci. This is one of the most common causes of bloodstream infections among those hospitalized.
80 percent of keyboards contained diphtheroids. This bacteria represents a significant infection risk for those whose immune systems are weak, such as cancer and AIDS patients.

Even in Hospitals!"
