A member asked:
Can germs live on a t shirt? if you air it out and it's cold and not warm or moist (suitable for germs) will it still have germs on it?

Good question!: Germs are every where. Yet they are harmless if your body is healthy. You can not catch them from clothes like you are concerned about. Our lungs filter them out and our stomach acid kills them....So nothing much to worry about!
