Which suggests impartial, right?

The problem with internet research is you can say something and then find something to back it up, rather than do your own research.

Do some research and form an opinion; I have.

I believe that if you look t the care label inside any nurses uniform it will say to wash and 40 degrees. 60 degrees will probably shrink it!!!

Alternatively it suggests that other people have different opinions from you and you are not necessarily always correct. It could also form the basis of a reasonable discussion. Looking at your recent posts it seems that you do not welcome any opinion which does not conform to your own.

All this thread has really done is demonstrate that AAA+ washing machines with super dooper all whistles and bells low temperature wash washing powders would appear to be a con! Or has it?
Which? put 12 washing machines to the test and measured the top temperature they reached during a 60ºC  wash and how long that temperature was maintained. Eight of the machines did not get to 60 degrees at all. The lowest top temperature was 43°C.
Most of the machines kept the water cooler than 50°C for the majority of the program. That’s not exactly what you might expect if you’re using the 60°C wash with the hope of keeping your laundry bacteria-free.
The test results suggest that a typical 60°C wash can’t be relied upon to kill bacteria, especially if your machine only reaches this temperature for a couple of minutes (or not at all).
Which? also asked a microbiologist for advice about ridding laundry of bugs and he explained that the real key to wiping out bacteria is using a good laundry detergent to wash them away. Detergents are much more effective than they used to be at lower temperatures, so even if your machine doesn’t get to 60°C, a good detergent can remove bacteria and viruses.
I very rarely use a 60°C wash at home. I prefer to be as energy and water efficient as I can and use a fast program that washes at 30°C. I used to wonder if I was taking any chances by not using a hotter wash on things like towels and sheets. It is clear that laundry detergent and wash duration has a major role to play in bug removal as well as stain removal.

For every report by a leading expert in any field you will most certainly always find a counter claim. Neither one may be wrong but the most convincing argument is usually the one that wins.

So it's all rubbish then. Fine......

An opinion which is hardly believable when there is so much infection transmitted within hospitals.

No doubt this can be counterclaimed as well.

Apologies While trying to edit this post, the original images were lost.
I was moving them to this spoiler and the images links became broken.
Please upload again. Mark

3 Images showed the effects of Infections on people.
Which were difficult to stomach hence moving to a spoiler.
