Keeping hands clean through improved hand hygiene is one of the most important steps we can take to avoid getting sick and spreading germs to others. Many diseases and conditions are spread by not washing hands with soap and clean, running water. If clean, running water is not accessible, as is common in many parts of the world, use soap and available water. If soap and water are unavailable, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol to clean hands. Sharing the need to have a healthy lifestyle is important for everyone, share in your social media to make awareness and try to use the SocialBoosting tools to have more views to get engagement in your content and more audience.
