We all know washing our hands is important, but most people don’t realize just how much it impacts daily health. Regular handwashing reduces the spread of viruses, bacteria, and respiratory illnesses by up to 50%. It also protects against stomach bugs, pink eye, strep, and countless infections picked up from public surfaces.
College campuses, workplaces, gyms, and classrooms are especially high-traffic environments where germs spread quickly. Hand sanitizer helps, but nothing replaces soap and water for removing dirt, oils, and microbes.
At Ole Town Med, we see firsthand how many common illnesses could be prevented with simple hygiene habits. Washing hands before eating, after coughing or sneezing, after touching shared surfaces, and after being in public spaces goes a long way in keeping you and your family healthy.
Small habits make a big impact and this one is quick, easy, and incredibly effective.
