A recent study of sidewalks in Manhattan found 'astonishing levels' of bacteria that could cause heart disease. DougWilliamsTV reports.
-- We all know New York City streets are dirty. But how much of those germs are we carrying into our homes?
"Shoes off, please." It's a dreaded phrase for many house guests, but it's exactly what Dr. Alessandra Leri says hosts should demand. Leri co-authored a study about contaminants on Manhattan's sidewalks, specifically in standing water. It focused on the Upper East Side, where her office and lab are. In translation, your shoes can be dangerous once you walk in your front door.
Dogs in the city are part of a growing problem on our streets and sidewalks. In their defense, dogs are an easy target for blame in the study. But the ideas you may be conjuring up in your head weren't the types of messy sidewalks that were examined.
