Dr. Rob Knight studies how skin bacteria jump from person to person. In one 2009 study, meant to simulate human contact, he used a Q-tip to cotton swab first one subject\u2019s mouth (or skin), then another\u2019s, to see how many bacteria traveled over. On the consent forms, he said risks were near zero - it was the equivalent of kissing another person\u2019s hand.
