Air hand dryers should be banned from hospital toilets because they spread more germs than disposable paper towels, scientists say.
Following a study carried out in three hospitals, it was revealed that using paper towels significantly reduces the risk of germs being spread between sick patients.
Surprisingly, high levels of dangerous bacteria that causes blood poisoning, pneumonia and gastroenteritis existed when dryers were used.
