    Maybe fishing vests will replace white coats to make up for the missing pockets!

    To blame a poor defenseless tie for shameful germ laden personal behavior is just not fair!

    I protest!

    I'll take it to the courts!

    I'll take it .... to the cleaners?!?

    LOL .. this is really funny, but I share the concern over hygiene. Perhaps the answer is to buy a new tie for each day?

    This is not just true in the UK. If you are a doctor and deal with patients on a daily basis, and still want to wear a tie, then wear a tie made from microfiber of polyester. The reason for this is simple. First of all they don't take on germs and odors as easily as a silk tie, and the second reasons is that they are more carefree and can be treated with an disinfecting spray, that would damage a silk tie.

    Thanks for posting!

    one recommendation I can fully support is the ban on ties. According to the report, it is “poor practice to wear neck-ties (other than bow-ties) in any care activity which involves patient contact”. The ties supposedly “perform no beneficial function … and have been shown to be colonized by pathogens
