ahhh germs yes you can get them growing on your cutting board. bad? depends on your immune system personally i think most people don't test out there immune system enough which is why so many people are sickly. but yes i would cut fruit first are hand wash after cutting meat. you dont need separate boards for everything in your kitchen thats just silly.
Yes it's bad. Even when washed, chicken and pork can leave bits that develop into bacteria. It does help if you wash them in the dishwasher though. They're so cheap, its easy to have a board each for meats, onions and garlic, and a third one for cheese and fruit.
If you cut your fruit first then it's not as bad Make sure you wash it really well after cutting the meat if you plan on using it for fruit again though
If the meats raw make sure you completely wash it before useing the fruit. If its aalready cooked just rince and dry.
As long as it's being washed I don't think so.
