You’re Washing Your Hands Wrong, And It’s Getting Us All Sick, So Do It This Way Instead

Only 5% of people are washing their hands correctly after using the crapper. Even worse is the fact that 23% don’t even bother using soap!

Where did we get these percentages? Michigan State University researchers hung out inside bathrooms and watched. Yes, that’s just as disgusting, but they’re doing it in the name of science AND not walking around with shit-stained hands.

It’s the reason we’re always sick, this rampant non-washing, and shaking a dirty hands spreads more disease than touch a NYC subway pole.

Here’s a helpful video, starring everyone’s favorite twin comics the Sklar bros, explaining the correct technique to keep your hands germ free.
