National Handwashing Awareness Week occurs the first full week in December. Handwashing is a vital step in preventing the spread of contaminants and diseases. Simply using warm, soapy water to wash frequently during the day can help cut down on the number of illnesses.
Learning proper handwashing skills has never been more relevant thanks to the importance of hygiene in the fight against COVID-19. Metro's Creative and Editorial resources provide plenty of information on handwashing basics.
