Hand hygiene – why, when & how?

The topic of hand hygiene is very much on our minds due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This short video from the Queensland Government emphasises the why, when & maybe most importantly the how of handwashing.

Hand hygiene - Protect ourselves against COVID-19

We should not underestimate the importance of hand hygiene & how it diminishes the spread of so many infections, not just COVID-19. Protecting ourselves, our loved ones, people we may care for & the broader community is something we should all take seriously, mainly when it is such a simple & effective measure.
