    That means most of you all aren’t washing your hands and azzes

    Not mine, I wash my Apple Watch with soap and water every time I take it off at the end of the day. Or if I feel it could have gotten dirty. Despite Apple’s warnings against using soap, I’ve done it with my Series 6 since launch.

      I use alcohol wipes, and clean mine multiple times a day.

      I wash it while showering and my series 1 is still fine after all these years

    I just poured alcohol into a bowl and put the watchband in there. That will fix it.

    Scary but now I would like to know if any of the participants involved in this study are affiliated in any way with any company that sells this bands. 😅

    *Making money is action, keeping money is behavior. Growing money is wisdom. I found this out a week ago after getting a $25,000 return on my $3,500 investment in 11 days❤❤️❤️❤️️️*

      Of course not I don’t give her my funds, It stays right in my trading account. My account only mirrors her trades in real time that’s the ideal for this system. Copy trading is 100% secured and very transparent to work with her, you have total control over your funds and can opt out anytime you want.*I invest with her too, I make about $7,500 weekly, she’s really a good broker*

      It’s a nice trading experience with her, I have never seen any of Jade Hawkins client’s complain about, or scammed I think she is a professional broker

      I think a Good TA like her will pay off more than random U~Tube videos a lot of U~Tubers don’t actually care if you loose money, they just want more views and traffic

    ANY watch band or bracelet one may wear will be dirty over time.

      Having bacteria on something doesn’t mean it’s dirty. There are more useful bacteria than dangerous ones and they are basically everywhere without us ever noticing. Or have you heard that someone got sick by just wearing a watch?

    I always wipe my watch with 70% isopropyl before I charge it.

  21. texasaltima2002

    This is why I clean mine in an ultrasonic machine with a solution of water and retainer cleaning tablets.

    Use Isopropyl alcohol to disinfect. Those are available from pharmacies. 👍

    Staph is commonly found on the skin. With or without an apple watch.
