A programme on this years ago said that as women predominantly put their bags on the floor in a toilet, the bags do carry more germs than almost anything else.  Thank goodness for hooks on doors.

As for the smoking ban, this came into force in Scotland quite some time ago.  It hasn't gone far enough but then was done on health grounds, as this is a matter devolved to the Scottish Parliament.  England, Wales and Northern Ireland took a little longer to decide on this matter, but I believe there has been a no smoking ban in force in the US for some considerable time now and so far ahead of us on this side of the Atlantic!
