These Office Areas May Be the Most Germ-Ridden, WCM Geneticist Says

If you're trying to avoid the flu, you may want to grab some disinfecting wipes for your desk.

CBS News spoke with Dr. Chris Mason, a geneticist at Weill Cornell Medicine, who explained that exposure to the flu virus isn't just dependent on who you come into contact with, but with what you come into contact, as well.

With Dr. Mason's help, CBS News swabbed common office areas and placed those samples under a microscope to see which places were the most germ-ridden.

Check out the results over at CBS News' website.
