Hello MicroJournal:
        I remembered this really funny BUT factual informative episode on a televised show called SCRUBS. This episode was titled "Bacterial movement (My cabbage episode)" and showed just how easy it is for bacteria to be spread. It showed how it's spread from person to person through almost every physical contact. I was at home when I was watching the episode and I recall my mother, who is a RN, explaining the importance of us washing our hands throughout the day. The conversation led to us discussing other ways bacteria can cause infections just by having a simple contact through physical.
EXAMPLES OF BACTERIAL SPREAD
I've attached some beautiful images from the movie that showed some ways that bacteria in the hospital scene in the movie:
- From CHILD to MOTHER >>>>>> From MOTHER to MALE DOCTOR
- From MALE DOCTOR to FEMALE DOCTOR

 
- From FEMALE DOCTOR to FEMALE PATIENT

- From CHILD's sneezed tissue to MALE STUDENT DOCTOR >>>> From MALE STUDENT DOCTOR
   to ELDERLY PATIENT

 ELDERLY PATIENT continues to spread the bacteria on herself


WATCH EPISODE NOW!
