[Poll] Global Handwashing Day
October 14, 2009 - 04:41 PM

15th of October, 2009 is global handwashing day. need to make people in your communities aware of the importance of washing hands, like after using the toilet, before eating etc. because many diseases are spread due to dirty hands.

Hi Siddiqua, Here in America I have noticed that 1 out of 2 men come out of a public stall and leave a public bathroom without washing their hands. Because of this I predict many Americans will begin to drop like dead flies the day a truly virulent flu virus mutates among us. My informal observations may not be totally accurate since they were made at sports stadiums and taverns where many tend to consume large amounts of alcohol and hence may get sloppy... We will have to wait for the killer virus to see if I am right... Hey, I see you have posted a new picture of yourself. Your new look is interesting but your previous photograph is more glamorous. big grin

I am surpised about the estimation of ALex shocked. Its the most critical issue, the educated people of USA have that trend, the question how will the people of third world countries will have the attitude of washing hands after using toilet!!!!! The issue is serious!!!

I'll back up Alex's comment, especially since I spend zero time in sports stadiums or bars. Nobody washes their hands in North America.

Hey Jay-co ! The irony of it all is that Americans really love to shake hands and "high-five" as a sign of friendship. Just imagine all that e-coli fecal dust floating in the air at a social gathering! Now I understand why the late Michael Jackson took to wearing his famous glove. big grin
