...The researchers chose a 17-mile stretch of highway connecting
chicken farms in Maryland to a processing plant to the south in
Accomac, Va. They rode in four-door cars with all the windows
down and the air conditioning off.

They checked the cars for bacteria after driving when there were no
chicken trucks around. And they checked for bacteria after 10 trips
behind flatbed trucks carrying crates of broiler chickens.
They collected bacteria from air samples, door handles and soda
cans inside the car.
In all the truck chases, they found high levels of certain bacteria,
including some that are resistant to antibiotics.


So bacteria resistant germs are airborn on the Highways....
Well, I'm off to KFC. Got a craving for chicken all of a sudden.

And you see all those crazy kids with the UV lights in the back of their cars... maybe they had the right idea?? I pressume you would get the same results from following any livestock transporter.

Thinking about it a car made of pure silver may also ward off unfriendly bacteria, I myself have no issues with virii or bacteria as my immune system is probably the best on the planet.
