  • I was taught that ...

    I was taught that most people don't wash their hands for long enough - who knows what 30 seconds really is?

    As such, I tell people to sing Happy Birthday in their heads. :) They thought I was crazy but hearing Dr. McGeer say that makes me feel better because now I can reference her (an expert) vs me...not so much an expert. :)

    Great, informative video!
