Being an indoor type (pale, sluggish, pasty, distorted body image, and often cloaked by the glare of several screens including the one on which I now compose), I am constantly looking for ways to negotiate myself out of a picnic at the beach or by the pool or other related event. Now I have a little more ammunition in my anti-social arsenal. ABC presents their list of 6 Unhygienic Summer Health Threats. Some of the things to be on the lookout for include.
- Pee (or worse) in pools
- Undercooked meat
- Sand and soil germs
- Freshwater parasites
- Outdoor eating
- Leaving cold food out
Now that I’ve looked these over, I realize they are all pretty mild compared to the excuses I usually use. My family can outdo this whole list right in the cofines of our own family room.
