what about the other ambient air that is getting swished around (wind currents) full of fecal matter!

I was typing about hair dryers. Hopefully beauty salons won’t be THAT full of fecal matter.

And while the hand dryers don’t get as hot as hair dryers, I bet the actual net effect of them is not much worse than if they weren’t there.

Maybe also ban restroom air dryers.

Those hand dryers are great on a 10 degree below morning.

My hairstylist was told by a nurse to use the blow dryer. It hot and heat kills the virus. It isn’t going to spread anything. So she did when I got my hair cut this past week. Such a luxury!

Big Hair will never return.

The 1980’s weep.

A lot of things I miss about the 80s.

Mythbusters did a test and found hand blowers just blow the germs around and evenly distribute them throughout the room.

I _FINALLY_ won my campaign to get these things turned off at my company(I've been whinging about ever since I saw that Mythbusters episode). It only took an economy crushing pandemic, but they finally believed. Now I just need to make sure they get taken off the wall and scrapped so they aren't turned back on, ever again.

This has been known about hand dryers for decades. Of course the manufacturers try to pass them off as “more sanitary” than paper towels. Note you do not see them in hospitals.
