Handwashing is one of the simplest yet most powerful ways to protect your health and the health of those around you. Every day, our hands come into contact with countless surfaces—door handles, phones, keyboards—that can harbor harmful germs and bacteria. Without proper hygiene, these germs can easily spread and cause illnesses like colds, flu, and even more serious infections.
Why is it important?
Prevents illness: Washing your hands with soap and water removes germs that can make you sick.
Stops the spread: Clean hands help prevent germs from spreading to others, especially in shared spaces.
Protects vulnerable groups: Children, older adults, and those with weakened immune systems rely on our good hygiene habits.
Handwashing isn’t just a routine—it’s a powerful shield against illness. Make it a daily priority for your health and the health of others!
