Good find arirish.
This might go a long way toward explaining it's very specific spread, particularly in healthcare settings in Saudi. Reminds me of this, from a news article that was published a few months ago - "At the Hafr al Batin public hospital, where some of the Sahly family first went for care, a Saudi nurse sat in an empty waiting room, her mouth and nose covered by a mask as recommended. Faded signs detailing proper handwashing technique hung on the hospital walls—next to restrooms that had neither towels nor soap" Handwashing, people. And use a paper towel to open the bathroom door when you leave, because not everyone will be as diligent |

COL - you're in mixed company here on AFT, so stop with the lewd comments. For someone with such high expectations of others, you show a distinct lack of class at times.
Post hidden again. |

Jacksdad, being the reformed prostitute that I am, it should be noted that I working on being a classy lady of the day, instead of a classless lady of the night.
