TikTokers Worry About Getting Chlamydia From Gym Equipment

Some TikTokers are concerned that they can get more than a swole body at the gym...user @evolvewithfarai posted a video of her wiping down equipment to avoid catching chlamydia. Some users, like @grinny45, claim they contracted the STI after touching gym machines. However, doctors have come onto the platform to say that this is typically not how this disease is spread. "We know that it’s primarily spread through doing the deed, not through casual contact or touching surfaces," ER doctor Joe said. "So, unless you’re doing something very unusual with those gym machines, you’re safe." However, it is possible to contract ringworm and skin warts from gym equipment, so be sure to wipe down machines before and after use. (metro.co.uk)
