Here is a link explaining why we should never use those public blow dryers for our hands.  One more thing to worry about.

@summerbreeze44 , the bad thing is most public washrooms that have these have removed disposable paper towels.  LM

That has been a known fact for years.  So please try not to add it to your worries.

I never use the hand blow dryers. I wad up toilet paper and bring it out with me when washing my hands after using the bathroom.

That's been known for years.  In fact, more and more public bathrooms re-installed at least one paper dispenser a couple of years ago because of the germ factor of those blowers. 

 

They are awful!

It was mentioned on an episode of "The Big Bang Theory" AND it was tested and proven on MythBusters.
