ReplyDeleteWhy so many funny hand hygiene videos? (That actually aren't funny.) People treat it like a joke. It's not simple.

The video demonstrates an institutions endorsement across disciplines of a fundamental infection prevention mesage, delivered with good cheer and sense of humor. Congratulations to all participants.
