Serious question, has anyone else seen the new health department report on cross-contamination from kitchen towels?

I just read the one from the county health board, and it says 89% of tested towels in commercial kitchens had traces of raw chicken bacteria. Where do you guys stand on switching to single-use paper for certain stations?

Honestly that report seems like fear mongering. Proper washing kills those germs, and paper towels just create way more waste. Most kitchens I know just use color coded cloths for raw meat and wash them on high heat.

Most kitchens I know still use the same rag for everything.
