New Clothes Covered In Fecal Bacteria Warns Expert

KFI:A new study proves why it is essential to wash new clothes before you wear them for the first time. Philip Tierno, professor of microbiology and pathology at New York University, detailed his disgusting findings in an interview with the Huffington Post.

Tierno said that he found many pieces of clothing he tested were tainted with a wide variety of germs and bacteria including norovirus, bacteria including strep and staph, and even fecal germs. He explained that the germs and bacteria are transferred to the clothing when people try them on, and the longer an item sits in the store, the more likely that people will have tried it on. more here

  1. Anyone who has spent any time …sitting …in a public restroom is aware how many people do not care about basic hygiene, specifically washing their hands after using the toilet. People are disgusting.

  4. whoever was so stupid as to not wash new clothes?

    whoever did not know everyone and their sister had not tried on these clothes?

    …….or brother……excuse me fer bean sexist…..

    whoever bought this stuff “off the rack,” and didn’t know it had been tried on by whoever???

    i suppose we are all too stupid, now, to think of this ourselves….we need a government policy to protect us from the dangers of previously tried-on garments……

    i can smell a whole new agency, akin to the EPA…….

  5. Story time…

    So as I’ve perhaps mentioned I got this part time job on the weekends pretending to be security. Trucks coming in and out with Mid Eastern drivers using the bathroom. Go in checking after for possible cleanup and find the footprints on the top of the commode. Goes in, lifts the toilet seat up, pulls his pants down, stands/squats on the commode and takes a crap. Perfectly good toilet seat and they don’t use it! Really don’t want to know how he wiped.

    Have other stories, but WTF. Can’t be taught to use modern conveniences after they leave their camels?

  6. I only buy cloths on line. I wash them because they were made in Bangeladesh or El Salvador or some other shiphole. It’s not like the sweatshop has a sign in the employee restroom instructing workers in six languages how to wash their hands.

  7. This s very old news. Think about where the clothes are made. Does anyone think there are restrooms with seats, TP, soap or running water in a sweatshop in Laos, Thailand, Nicaragua, or Sri Lanka? I’ve been on Mrs. Lot’s ass for years about not washing before wearing. The company I used to work for invested in dozens of those garment factories, and whether it’s Gucci, Levis, or Lands End, they’re all the same. Wash that stuff before you wear it!
