I’m confused, she was touching the raw meat? She was not wearing gloves? I wouldn’t be concerned about the germs, since you’re cooking the meat and I doubt they can live on a **** chop. It’s the lack of gloves which bothers me. Did she just wrap it up in paper/plastic? I guess I understand you not wanting her to have a cold in general, but I don’t think you can get sick from her touching the meat like that.
