Leptospirosis
Avoid drinking off canned drinks or at the least wash off the surroundings of the can with water.
Cans are stored in stores or warehouses where rodents areon the prowl. Beware of can drinks!
This incident happened recently in North Texas .
A woman went boating one Sunday taking with her some cans of cokewhich she put into the refrigerator of the boat.
On Monday she was taken to the hospital and placed in ICU. She died onWednesday.
The autopsy concluded she died of Leptospirosis. This was traced to the can of coke she drank from without using aglass. Tests showed that the can was infected by dried rat urine and hence the disease Leptospirosis.
Rat urine contains toxic and deathly substances.

It is highly recommended to thoroughly wash the upper part of sodacans before drinking out of them. The cans are typically stocked in warehouses and transported straight to the shopswithout being cleaned.
A study at NYCU showed that the tops of soda cans are more contaminated than public toilets (i.e).. full of germs andbacteria..
So wash them with water before putting them to the mouth to avoid any kind of fatal accident.

NEVER LIGHT A CANDLE in an A/C ROOM
Hi All,
Very important - NEVER LIGHT A CANDLE in an A/C ROOM. Prevention is
better than cure... Please read this and pass on...
NEVER LIGHT A CANDLE in an AirConditioned Room.
A friend passed away last week due to carbon-monoxide poisoning.
It happened when she lighted an aroma theraputic candle for the night in a room with the air-
conditioner ON. Due to subsequent lack of oxygen in the room, the burning of the candle cannot
fully oxidize, thus forming dangerous carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide will prevent oxygen exchange in the lungs, resulting in the person dozing off
into a state of unconsciousness & eventual death in less than an hour, depending on the room size.
This message is to make you aware of such a danger when lighting aroma theraputic candles in any unventilated rooms.
