Finger Facts
The number of germs on your finger tips double after using the toilet.
Around 17% of women and 31% of men admit they don’t wash their
hands regularly after using the toilet.
Germs from raw food can cause sickness, diarrhoea and fever.
An American study found that when tested only 6% of bank notes were
germ-free. The rest carried bugs including those that can cause
pneumonia.
There can be about a gram of poo in a pair of dirty pants!
Bacteria are too small to be seen without a microscope. Most are
about 1/1000th of a millimetre, which is very tiny!
A typical bacteria can divide every 20 minutes.
Bacteria from a sneeze can be passed from person to person in the air,
by touch or by surface contact.
Germs
When were you last unwell?
How did you feel?

Bacteria and Virus
Bacteria
Virus
A bacteria is a simple microbe
made of just one cell.
Viruses are the smallest of all
microbes.
Many bacteria have a long
spinning tail that helps them
move.
Viruses need a living host cell
to allow them to reproduce and
survive.
Bacteria can cause illnesses
such as sore throats, whooping
cough and food poisoning.
Viruses can cause illnesses such
as chickenpox, cold sores and
the flu.
