A member asked:
Can you get a disease if a work headset mic touches your lip i had it all day today and the mic part was turned up until i had to take an order thats when it touched my lip and im not sure who had it before me the day before?

It all depends on what disease the previos wearer had -if any. Most bacteria/virus do not survive for long. Also at most places this kind of equipment is cleaned with an antiseptic. So the chance of you getting anything by this is slim to none. Just make sure you sterilize the euipment before use. good luck.
