Paper Towels Better Than Air Dryers to Stop Virus Spread AskADoctor Healthcaremagic DailyHealthTips
Each volunteer wore an apron so the degree of body or clothing contamination during hand-drying could be measured. Drying was done in a hospital public toilet. Samples were collected from public areas after the participants exited.
The findings indicate there was fivefold more virus dispersed to clothing. Surface contamination was more than 10 times higher after jet air dryer use compared with hand-drying by paper towel. “Crucially, these differences in contamination translate into significantly greater levels of microbe contamination after jet air drying versus paper towel use from hands and body beyond the toilet/washroom,” the study authors wrote. “As public toilets are used by patients, visitors and staff, the hand drying method chosen has the potential to increase or reduce pathogen transmission in hospital settings.
