A leading doctor has weighed in on viral social media claims that say that it’s possible to get chlamydia from touching gym equipment.
The rumour began with a TikToker who claimed he contracted the STI at the gym after wiping his eye with a towel that he had placed on a bench.
User @grinny45 said he had to visit his doctor after getting what he thought was “pink eye”, also known as conjunctivitis, a minor infection of the eye.
But tests revealed it was actually chlamydia.
