    Please Read Very Scary ..... We All Do This!!!!

    Be careful guys!

    A woman went boating one Sunday taking with her some cans of coke which she put into the refrigerator of the boat. On Monday she was taken to the
    hospital and placed in the Intensive Care Unit. She died on Wednesday. The
    autopsy concluded she died of Leptospirosis. This was traced to the can of
    coke she drank from, not using a glass. Tests showed that the can was
    infected by dried rat urine and hence the disease Leptospirosis. Rat urine
    contains toxic and deadly substances. It is highly recommended to thoroughly
    wash the upper part of soda cans before drinking out of them. The cans are
    typically stocked in warehouses and transported straight to the shops
    without being cleaned. A study at NYCU showed that the tops of soda cans are more contaminated than public toilets (i e.) full of germs and bacteria. So
    wash them with water before putting them to the mouth to avoid any kind of
    fatal accident. Please forward this message to all the people you care
    about. (I JUST DID!)
