Hi, my name is Nirav Parmar.
Welcome "Wash Your Hands to Keep Yourself and Others Healthy: Recommendations for the Developed World." Washing your hands regularly and correctly is one of the simplest and most effective ways to reduce your risk of contracting or transmitting diseases.
This article will teach you how to wash your hands correctly which can reduce your risk of contracting or transmitting disease. Human diseases are caused by organisms such as viruses, bacteria, and parasites that can be found in the air, soil, and water You will often come in contact with disease causing organisms when you touch things that others have touched.
If you then touch your mouth, nose, or eyes, this increases the risk that you will contract a disease. If the disease causing organisms remain on your hands, this increases the risk that you will transmit the organism to someone else.
When should you wash your hands? You should always wash your hands :- after you use the toilet or latrine - after touching your nose or mouth after sneeze or cough - before you prepare or eat food- after you touch raw meat, fish, or eggs - before and after you care for someone who is sick - after you change a diaper It is especially important to wash your hands before you prepare or eat food. If you don't, the disease causing organisms from your hand scan make you or other people who eat the food extremely sick. The elderly, infants, or people with weak immune systems are especially vulnerable to food-borne illnesses and are at increased risk of death if they contract one.
If you are caring for someone who is sick and has a weak immune system, such as a person with end stage AIDS, it’s important to wash your hands before touching them to avoid transmitting a disease that might make them very sick. Finally, it's extremely important to wash your hands after you use the toilet. Unfortunately, many people fail to do this, so the toilets often contaminated with disease causing organisms from feces.
Most people do not wash their hands long enough or thoroughly enough to remove most of the disease causing organisms.
