FLESH EATING DISEASE, or 'Necrotizing Fasciitis' and HANDWASHING Importance

Here is another reason to make sure that you wash your hands after using public restrooms or portable toilets: Flesh Eating Disease!

That's right, necrotizing fasciitis (the medical term for it) can be transmitted through a small cut scrape, where it enters the body. According to PubMed Health, the bacteria begins to grow, and in turn, releases harmful toxins that kill tissue. This dead tissue creates more bacteria, which enter the bloodstream, and can spread rapidly through the body.

Prevention for this deadly infection is simple, "Always clean the skin thoroughly after a cut, scrape, or other skin injury.", according to the US National Library of Medicine.

So, imagine that the person using the restroom facilities (or a porta potty) before you has an open wound with the bacteria and doesn't wash their hands. And now you enter, and happen to touch something that was contaminated, and you have a small cut or a simple scrape that you didn't even notice...

If you wash your hands thoroughly, you'll have no problem! So keep up the good work, and stay clean! :-)
