The touch screens in McDonald's were tested and the results are horrifying!
Get that hand sanitizer out lads... When the new touchscreen's were tested in one McDonalds, it was fund that every single one of them that was tested was found to have traces of faeces on it.
EVERY 👏 SINGLE 👏 ONE 👏
This research was performed by The Metro and found that every machine had bad coliforms (bacteria found in living organisms) present on it.
And you touch this just before you eat your happy meal.
1 - This is disgusting, but also 2- It can make you seriously ill. You can literally catch illnesses that are common in hospitals in your local Maccy D's.
Dr Paul Matawele, from London Metropolitan University's Microbiology department, said:
We were all surprised how much gut and faecal bacteria there was on the touchscreen machines. These cause the kind of infections that people pick up in hospitals.For instance, Enterococcus faecalis is part of the flora of gastrointestinal tracts of healthy humans and other mammals. It is notorious in hospitals for causing hospital-acquired infections.
This research tested swab kits taken from eight McDonald's locations. Six in London, and two in Birmingham.
Wash your hands!
