       I have never gotten one in well over 20 years. To be honest I
       rarely swab the injection area before my shots. Granted I do
       them after a shower so probably bacteria free.

       Your lucky. The shower water is not sterile.

       Oh I know but I work for the city and see the tests. There is
       very little live bacteria in it with the chlorine and other
       chems (why I do not drink it)
       The amount of bacteria after washing with soap and water is
       decreased substantially with just water but with soap reduces
       the bacteria down to 0-4% which is negligible.
       now look at alcohol swab...as much as live 20% bacteria left
       over. Iodine is more effective than alcohol.
       You can do the research brother, I did. Scrubbing with soap and
       hat water is more effective at removing bacteria than swabbing
       with alcohol.
       This all comes from sources that cite references. I did not
       believe it either my friend.

       I think most infections are not from our skin but from the top
       of a vial that has been punctured 10 times and you forget to
       wipe it. That I always do.

       Good to know. I do agree on the vial rubber tops also.

       Never had one either and now over 25 years of use, sometimes up
       to 8 injections a day. I am religious though and swab the rubber
       stopper and the area before each injection and also swab the
       stopper after pulling, as there is always a little oil left
       over.
