(newswire.net — April 15, 2013) Montreal, Quebec — Research studies show that poor hygiene is one of the main causes for the spread of many infectious illnesses in today’s society. Improper hand washing can mislead people to believe their hands are clean when in fact they may still be contaminated with bacteria and germs. Avmor Ltd. has produced a video that demonstrated the proper techniques for washing hands. This two minute video, which will be available on You Tube, Facebook, Twitter and other sites, clearly explains how to ensure proper hand hygiene from a child’s perspective. With this video, Avmor takes its ongoing effort to educate customers into a new format and clearly demonstrates that proper hand hygiene is child’s play.
Effective hand washing has proven health benefits. Consider the following facts:
• Infectious diseases commonly spread through hand-to-hand contact including the common cold, the flu, and gastrointestinal disorders.
• Proper hand washing is also the most effective way of preventing the spread of many serious illnesses such as meningitis, bronchitis and hepatitis A.
• Many outbreaks of foodborne illness such as salmonella and E.coli can be traced to unwashed or poorly washed hands.
Avmor’s hand washing video will help educate customers and other end users about these benefits. Click here to view video.
