Hey there, it's Sanjay. The current Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo. It's a

constantly evolving situation, and I know that can come with uncertainty and concerns. These types of

viral outbreaks are something that my colleague Anderson Cooper and I have seen firsthand while

reporting on the ground in Africa. And as always, we want to keep you informed.

We want to answer your questions.

So Anderson and I are going to be holding an interactive Q&A session all about Ebola,

exclusively for CNN All Access subscribers.

Go ahead, start submitting your questions now at CNN.com slash subscriber series, and we will answer them live on Wednesday, June 3rd at 5 p.m. Eastern.

Hope to see you there.

Welcome to paging, Dr. Gupta.

Thank you so much for joining us.

I love listening to all your comments and your

questions. It really gives me a sense of what's on your mind. My producer, Jennifer, is back with us

today. Who do we have first? Hi, Sanjay. Today we have a 14-year-old calling from Orlando, Florida,

with a great question about bathroom air dryers.

Hello, my name is David, and my question for the podcast is, are air dryers safe?

Like, do they have a filter where they filter the bacteria out?

Okay, David, 14-year-old David, thank you for calling in. That's a great question. Look, sometimes you've got to use a public restroom. I don't think anyone wants to do that, but sometimes it's just obviously inevitable. It may feel stressful because public restrooms may feel like they're full of pathogens, like bacteria, maybe even viruses.

So we know that we need to wash our hands after using the bathroom wherever we are.

What you may not know is that it's also critically important to draw your hands after washing them,

because it helps decrease the volume of germs on our hands,

and also because bacteria can be spread way more easily when our hands are wet.
