Dear Tacoma Here it is dear Abby people come to you with every conceivable problem so in a encouraged to present one that is so Touchy in be never seen it mentioned in your column. How do you get people to Wash their hands after using the bathroom in our Home the bathroom is right off the Kitchen and when the water is turned on it can be heard in the next room. Guests have gone into our bathroom used the toilet i can hear it being flushed and then come out without having turned on the faucet so i know they Haven to washed their hands. Then after supper they offer to help me dry the dishes 1 always say no thank you there a no telling what kind of infection could be transferred to my dishes from those unwashed hands. Worse yet where i work there a a cafeteria and in Vedear Abby seen some cafeteria employees walk out of a bathroom stall and go straight out to serve the people without having washed their hands. Some of them even wipe and polish dishes As they come out of the dishwasher. Can you imagine the disease risks a diner faces when he uses these a freshly washed dishes Abby please explain How dangerous this is. If you print this i Promise to Frame it and hang it above our toilet. Thank you. A please Wash in Winona Minn. Dear please i cannot stress too emphatically How important this one specific area of Hygiene is to Good general health. Children should be taught to Wash their hands with soap preferably a disinfectant Type after using the bathroom and adults should have made it a lifelong habit. Last november the Mayo clinic the medical Mecca of the world sponsored an a infection awareness week program. As part of its Campaign prominently displayed along the corridors of the Mayo Hospital Complex were posters showing a pair of hands under this terse message a the 10 most common causes of to remind doctors nurses and employees of the Mayo clinic to Wash their hands frequently were other posters bearing this Catchy message a a Milligram of hand washing is Worth a kilogram of one final no no on this subject one must never use a Napkin from the table As a handkerchief and then carelessly allow it to be mixed with other napkins on the table. Quite often a careless waiter or bus person will use soiled napkins to wipe off the table. This is almost As unforgivable As the aforementioned dirty toilet habits. The solution is to use a Napkin As a Napkin and a handkerchief As a handkerchief and be certain each is deposited in its proper place when no longer needed.
