Happy Birthday Song and the Swine Flu
My Videoke
So I got an email from my company with tips on how to wash the hands properly to avoid getting sick and spreading germs to others.
Washing Your Hands
- Rub hands together vigorously to make a lather. Soap up to your wrists and don’t forget your fingernails
- Scrub for 20 seconds. Need a timer – 20 seconds is about the time it takes to sing “Happy Birthday” twice.
- Rinse well under running water
- Dry your hands with a paper towel. If possible, use your paper towel to turn off the faucet
If soap and water are not available, use gel hand sanitizers or alcohol-based hand wipes.
It's not my birthday yet, but I decided to wash my hands while singing Happy Birthday twice. With all the news about swine flu, this might not be a bad idea. If you decide to make a video of yourself doing the same thing, please let me know and I'll gladly post it here. Have fun!
