National Handwashing Awareness Week is December 7-13, 2008
National Handwashing Awareness Week is the first full week in December. This year you can help spread the word, not the germs! The four principles of handwashing awareness are:
1. Wash your hands when they are dirty and before you eat
2. Do not cough into your hand
3. Do not sneeze into your hand
4. Above all, Never touch your eyes, nose or mouth with dirty hands
Proper hand washing requires vigorous lathering for at least 20 seconds — as long as it takes to sing the ABC song. Do not forget to tell your family, friends, fellow students and co-workers to lend a hand to Keep US all Healthy One Handwash at a Time!
