This slide shows how infection can spread:
It is important to try and break the chain by good infection control practices.
These include good hand hygiene, cough etiquette etc.

11. Why is Hand Hygiene So Important?
The most common way germs are spread is by people’s
hands. Germs are often harmless but they can also
cause illness such as colds, flu and tummy bugs.
Proper hand washing with soap and warm water is the
single most important thing you can do to help reduce
the spread of infections and help protect you, your
family and those around you.

14. Before and After Work & Breaks
