Reminder that washing hands can prevent the spread of germs, sickness, & disease

 I had to take a picture of this when I was in the bathroom at the Fred Meyer in Tacoma, WA:




This is a picture of the travel soap that I carry in my wallet/purse (see picture below). It's compact & perfect to use when you're at places that are out of soap. 




See the picture (below) of what the soap looks like (when I open the container of the travel soap):

2 Covid prevention tips

Image
Covid prevention tip #1:  Either have antibacterial hand wipes OR hand sanitizer spray OR gel (minimally on you at all times) so that you can quickly disinfect hands after touching commonly touched surfaces in public/NOT have to touch commonly touched surfaces in public (i.e. if you use the hand wipe as a barrier when touching commonly touched surfaces such as doorknobs or pin pads at checkout). Well known brands for antibacterial hand wipes are "Wet Ones" and "Purell", of course store brand wipes work as well. Covid prevention tip #2:  To further support my point in Covid prevention tip #1, I was at Walgreens tonight and I thought I'd use the hand wipes that they provide in store since it'd be quicker to grab than my wipes in my bag (for wiping the shopping cart). I expected the first wipe or 2 to be dry, but even after grabbing a few, they were all so dry that I dug out my hand wipes (see photo below) that I got for the first time (first time I've eve...

Hand air dryers in public restrooms should be avoided at all costs

Image
In case you didn't learn this LONG before Covid-19, hand air dryers that are in public restrooms to dry your hands after washing should be avoided at all costs. According to a Harvard Health blog article dated May 11, 2018, bacteria is multiplied from the bathroom air which dirties up your hands when you use the hand air dryers on your hands (with only minimal amounts of bacteria on the nozzles of the air dryers). According to this blog, researchers attached high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters to the dryers, which would eliminate most of the bacteria from the air passing through the dryer. When they exposed petri dishes to air from the hand dryers again, the quantity of bacteria in the dishes had fallen by 75%. They concluded that most of the bacterial splatter from the hand dryers had come from the washroom air such as when toilets are flushed with an open lid. Carly's comment (the founder, implementor, & manager of this Covid blog you're reading): I'm ...
