    Default Someone please help calm me down!!!!!

    Today my fingers touched my lips or possibly inside my lips. I haven't went anywhere today, but I've been touching my phone. However, I have washed my hands today a couple of times, but I've been touching my phone afterwards. No one sick has been touching it, and no one at my school has been sick with noro that I know of. Should I be scared for noro on my phone? and that I might get it from that?

    No way. Chances are VERY slim. Funny you mention this... I realized tonight that as I was putting some Ambesol (I have a canker sore on my tongue, ugh) in my mouth tonight, I didn't wash my hands after touching my phone and putting it on the charger for the night. Then I rationalized and told myself no one I know has had noro, no one else has touched my phone, I didn't leave the house today, etc. You will be fine.

    i sanitize my phone with lysol wipes every day when i get home from being out. i know the chances of me getting ill from my phone are slim, but it gives me that extra comfort.
