Feeling under the weather at your desk? Research this week shows that your keyboard could be to blame. Which? Computing magazine examined 33 keyboards and found a variety of bacteria which can make you ill – one keyboard even had to be removed from the office as it was five times dirtier than a toilet seat. As well as dust and poor personal hygiene, the main culprit was people eating at their desks. So if you want to keep on fighting fit it might be an idea to give your computer a clean – and save your sandwiches until you’ve finished writing that email.
