Worms are easy to pass on through exchange of money
Really?
Money is one of the most used items that is handled by multiple persons and usually without using protection such as gloves. I Cambodia you see the condition of some of the Reil and dollars at the markets and yes worms , among other germs, can be passed by handling cash.
I am aware of the general nastiness of paper currency.
I hope you're not equating germs and worms.
"Germs" bacteria, etc. are extremely microscopic whereas I think, worm eggs, larva etc are not, to the same degree.
Protozoa, maybe but worms? One can catch parasitic worms from handling paper currency?
I'd love to see a source for this Arget, as I've never heard this before. I'd love to be wrong and learn something new today.
