YouTube: Lessons from COVID-19 – the need to develop and promote hygiene behaviour that meets 21st Century needs

This YouTube shows that good hygiene is not about keeping our homes (or our workplaces or schools or public spaces) looking clean and free from dirt, it’s about what we do at the times in our daily lives when cleanliness really matters to prevent the spread of infection. This has come to be known as “Targeted Hygiene”.
