Your Cell Phone is More Dangerous & Filthy Than You Think!
If we were to ask you about something that you use the most during your day, we are certain that your answer will be your cell phone. According to Statista, on average, we pick up our phones more than 90 times a day. And there is more: We touch the screens of our phones over 3000 times! That is a lot.
However, the scary fact about cell phones is that they are more filthy than public toilets. A Harvard study compared the bacterial elements in cell phones and public toilets. What the study finds is gross – very gross, in fact. It turns out that cell phones contain 12 times more bacteria than public toilets. Let that sink in, people!

Your Doctor is Killing You!
Well, this one is terrifying. Before we go into the facts and stats, let’s be clear. We do not want you to avoid visiting your doctor. Instead, we always endorse that whenever you feel down or sick, pay a visit to your health professional. That is the least you can and should do.
But the fact remains the fact, no matter how scary. Researchers have found that as many as 250,000 deaths occur because of medical errors. That is a lot of deaths! Call it inefficiency of doctors or lack of resources, but the fact is that doctors ‘DO’ kill patients.
Other Terrifying Facts

That is terrifying! After all, you can see and hear everything, but you can not help but move your eyes helplessly.
