[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gen-X er here. Don't you guys remember, that [b]water fountains can spread things like hepatitis? That happened in my childhood.[/b] I give my kids water bottles, reusable of course. I also recall having an aluminum Girl Scout flask for water and stuff, so wasn't like we didn't drink water.[/quote]

Please tell me you're not serious. If you are, you might just be too dumb to live.[/quote]

Are YOU serious??? You don't know that??? A person infected with hepatitis may put their mouth on the water fountain, and then if the next people do, it can be spread. Just like when a restaurant worker has hepatitis and can spread it by preparing food. Take a second to Google before you hurl insults  :wink: [/quote]

Yep was definitely a think in the 80s

We think of it less b/c hep a vaccine invented in 1991 so many millennials are vaccinated at birth.

But another disease could arise using this vector. [/quote]
