Doctors talked about infection-transmitting hand dryers.
Medical professionals have warned that hand dryers are harmful to health and can transmit respiratory infections as well as Staphylococcus aureus.
According to doctors, such devices are dangerous because they are literally boxes full of bacteria. This is due to the fact that the air in them is taken from the premises. Additionally, in public restrooms where such dryers are installed, they may simply be infrequently cleaned and maintained, leading to the accumulation of microorganisms.
Experts note that with a weakened immune system, diarrhea and nausea may occur. To avoid potential dangers, doctors recommend thoroughly washing hands with soap for at least 30 seconds. Furthermore, they should be treated with an antiseptic afterward.
