Jack Frost wants another fist fight. 'Tis the season to moisturize inflamed knuckles and wear cotton gloves.
This is the idiot that the fascist regime thinks should be in charge of the Pentagon, our military, and its $900 Billion budget.

My elementary school had one of these handwashing stations. The water trickled out irregularly and did a halfassed job of rinsing off the grated soap from my hands.
I also remember that there was a vending machine that sold bruised red delicious apples for a dime. You'd put the money in, and the Apple would fall to the bottom, getting bruised even more. #memories #HandWashing #VendingMachines
#KnowledgeBit: Today is #Global #Handwashing Day! Medicine laureate Jules Bordet's discoveries related to immunity helped identify the bacterium that causes whooping cough.
This can be prevented with vaccines, and its spread slowed by washing hands with soap and warm water for 20 seconds.
This yearโs theme, โWhy are clean hands still important?โ calls for coordinated action toward universal hand hygiene.

@MsMerope Ooh, I like it! The tippy tap part is particularly useful when you are using this for hand sanitation issues (versus my "scrub dirt off the hands") #handwashing #disasters
This style works better #handwashing https://www.youtube.com/shorts/8DhGVuZbn4E
High efficiency hand washing station prototype in my backyard (which I use after gardening). One with a foot actuator is probably better from the standpoint of less hand contact. Also waters the tree. Had been playing with these learning about disaster recovery things. Curious what people are doing in North Carolina. #disasterpreparedness #handwashing
20 seconds is the minimum #time you should #wash your hands.
By the way, October 15th is Global Handwashing Day. With proper #handwashing, respiratory and intestinal #diseases can be reduced by 25โ50%.

> Ignaz Semmelweis was another pioneer of disease transmission who was also initially ignored as having proposed things too radical for the establishment of the time to accept. Working in Vienna in 1847, he showed that handwashing greatly reduced deaths by childbed fever in a maternity clinic

Do you wash your hands after using the bathroom in your own home?

Only 31% of American men wash their hands after using the bathroom.
An icon as signage for:
โข Dripping cigarette?
โข Use fingers to catch ashes?
As always, icons perform better with text. Or context. If the container of liquid soap that's hidden behind the mirror were visible to the public, they would be more likely to understand that this icon means "soap dispenser".
