what types of Diseases can you catch by using a public bathroom??

Answer 1

AIDS

Answer 2

Just about everything that you can catch other places. Your chances of getting hepatitus are worse in a dirty bathroom. It's stupid to have to turn the handle on a faucet to wash your hands when everybody else has been wiping their butts and then touching the faucet handle too. Yuck. That's why I like the fully automatic bathrooms. That's why Japan is the best, I didn't even have to lock the toilet stall door, it did it automatically, and the toilet paper came down automatically. Good luck if you go someplace in the third world, you're lucky if you find a toilet bowl to squat over. When there is a bowl, people stand on the freakin' rim of the toilet bowl that has no seat. Have fun looking for a bush, and take the hand wipes and Purel.

Answer 3

Answer 4

They're all wrong. Your immune system is tough, and it will protect you from most anything. The only way you can get aids is if someone stabbed your butt with a knife and you decided to use the toilet directly afterwards. Then, if someone with AIDS or HIV had gotten their blood on the same toliet, maybe you would get AIDS.

HELOO!!!

Bacterial, viral diseases can be contacted using the public
bathroom and can be spread, curtailed thus;

Infectious diseases: How they spread, how to stop them:---

Infectious diseases spread in many ways, but you can minimize your risk of infection.

From your sniffling seatmate on the bus to the raw chicken on your cutting board, everyday life is full of potential infectious hazards. With germs so common and seemingly everywhere, the question is this: Just how do you get around them?

Knowing how germs spread can help you stop them in their tracks. Find out how infectious disease is transmitted, and more importantly, what you can do to minimize your risk of infection.
Infectious diseases spread through contact

Direct contact
The easiest way to catch most infectious diseases is by coming in contact with someone who has one. This "someone" can be a person, an animal or, for an unborn baby, its mother. Three different ways infectious disease can be spread through direct contact are:

* Person to person. The most common way for infectious disease to spread is through the direct transfer of bacteria, viruses or other germs from one person to another. This can occur when an individual with the bacterium or virus touches, coughs on or kisses someone who isn't infected. These germs can also spread through the exchange of body fluids from sexual contact or a blood transfusion.
* Animal to person. Your household pet might seem harmless, but pets can carry many germs. Being bitten or scratched by an infected animal can make you sick and, in extreme circumstances, could even cause death. Handling animal waste can be hazardous, too. You can become infected by scooping your cat's litter box or by cleaning bat or mouse droppings in your house or garage.
* Mother to unborn child. A pregnant woman may pass germs that cause infectious diseases on to her unborn baby. Germs can pass through the placenta, as is the case of the AIDS virus and the toxoplasmosis parasite. Or you could pass along germs during labor and delivery, as is the case for a mother infected with group B streptococcus.

Indirect contact
Disease-causing organisms can also be passed along by indirect contact. Many germs can linger on an inanimate object, such as a tabletop, doorknob or faucet handle. When you touch the same doorknob grasped by someone ill with the flu or a cold, for example, you can pick up the germs he or she left behind. If you then touch your eyes, mouth or nose before washing your hands, you may become infected.
Infectious diseases spread through the air

Droplet transmission
When you cough or sneeze, you expel droplets into the air around you. When you're sick with a cold or the flu — or any number of other illnesses — these droplets contain the germ that caused your illness. Spread of infectious disease in this manner is called droplet spread or droplet transmission.

Droplets travel only about three feet because they're usually too large to stay suspended in the air for a long time. However, if a droplet from an infected person comes in contact with your eyes, nose or mouth, you may soon experience symptoms of the illness. Crowded, indoor environments may promote the chances of droplet transmission — which may explain the increase in respiratory infections in the winter months.

Particle transmission
Some disease-causing germs travel through the air in particles considerably smaller than droplets. These tiny particles remain suspended in the air for extended periods of time and can travel in air currents. If you breathe in an airborne virus, bacterium or other germ, you may become infected and show signs and symptoms of the disease. Tuberculosis and SARS are two infectious diseases usually spread through the air, in both particle and droplet forms.
Infectious diseases spread through vectors and vehicles

Bites and stings
Some germs rely on insects — such as mosquitoes, fleas, lice or ticks — to move from host to host. These carriers are known as vectors. Mosquitoes can carry the malaria parasite or West Nile virus, and deer ticks may carry the bacterium that causes Lyme disease.

The vector-borne spread of germs happens when an insect that carries the germ on its body or in its intestinal tract lands on you or bites you. The germs travel into your body and can make you sick. Sometimes the germs that cause infectious disease need the insect for specific biological reasons. They use the insect's body to multiply, which is necessary before the germs can infect a new host.

Food contamination
Another way disease-causing germs can infect you is through food and water. Common-vehicle transmission allows the germs to be spread to many people through a single source. Food is the vehicle that spreads the germs and causes the illness. For instance, contamination with Escherichia coli (E. coli) is common. E. coli is a bacterium present in certain foods — such as undercooked hamburger or unwashed fruits or vegetables. When you eat foods contaminated with E. coli, chances are you'll experience an illness — also commonly referred to as food poisoning.
