If have ever had, or currently have, the slightest bit of obsessive compulsive disorder for things being clean, Mysophobia, scientifically, then do yourself a favor and don’t proceed to read this article! I know, you can’t help yourself now, can you? A Stanford University study found that if you happen to contaminate your cell phone’s touch screen with a virus, then approximately 30% of that virus will then jump to anyone else who touches it.

So think twice next time you hand your phone over to someone to show them a youtube video or a facebook photo. They could be receiving much more than just a laugh. Oh, and to creep you out even more, cell phones harbor more then 18 times the bacteria than a toilet flush handle in any given men’s restroom. Why men’s? I’m not sure, but regardless, your touchscreen phone is dirtier and germier than a toilet handle!
