World Hand Hygiene Day
May 5, 2023
We are celebrating World Hand Hygiene Day on May 5. There are several deadly and dangerous diseases caused by microorganisms all around us. They are all trying to get inside us in one way or the other, which could easily happen through our hands. Hand hygiene is the best defense against such microbial attacks. Understanding this, the World Health Organization (WHO) launched a campaign to spread the importance of hand hygiene in healthcare.
