Counting money is also a way to spread genital warts

　　Is money also a way of transmitting genital warts? Another way genital warts spread: counting money.

　　Because of this unscientific propaganda, some people have sexually transmitted diseases Phobia, afraid to touch money, afraid to go to the public library to read newspapers and magazines, for fear of causing genital warts； Some people also say that after touching money, you should soak your hands in disinfectant for 30 minutes. This kind of propaganda makes people scared of genital warts.

　　It is a fact that there are a lot of bacteria on banknotes after being touched by many people. That is because they are exposed to the external environment and passed around among people, and may be contaminated at any time. However, the bacteria that can really survive on banknotes are the types with strong resistance to the outside world, such as golden ones. Grape cocci, tuberculosis bacilli, fungal spores, enteric bacteria, etc.

　　Of course, the possibility of transmitting such bacteria through banknotes is entirely possible, but it is really difficult to believe that sexually transmitted diseases such as genital warts are transmitted through banknotes. Such baseless speculation can only increase the burden on people's hearts. The pathogenic microorganisms that cause sexually transmitted diseases have weak resistance to the outside world after being separated from the body. For example, gonococci and Treponema pallidum can only survive on banknotes for about an hour. It is difficult to imagine that a patient with sexually transmitted diseases would pass banknotes infected with sexually transmitted disease pathogens to the person receiving the banknotes, and the latter's hands would come into contact with the genitals and cause infection. This is almost a myth.

　　Of course, genital warts are not impossible to transmit indirectly, but the medium of transmission will never be banknotes. It can only be transmitted through public baths, toilets, wet towels, and long-term close contact with sexually transmitted diseases. We cannot deny that banknotes are unhygienic. Therefore, it is necessary for people who work with banknotes to wash their hands thoroughly and pay attention to hygiene after working and purchasing things. However, banknotes are by no means a route of infection for genital warts.
