    Because illness has little to do with technology. As long as we have human contact, or even human interaction {touching doorknobs, phones, faucets in restrooms} we will continue to spread germs.

    Also, viruses and bacteria are exceptionally resilient creatures, and fight for their very survival quite diligently. Not to mention the gazillions of man-made carcinogens from our technology DESPITE our knowledge...
