There’s a science and routine to good hygiene. Washing your hands everyday with HIBICLENS® antimicrobial soap supports scientific research and is a “must-do” in your daily routine. HIBICLENS is a medical grade antimicrobial hand soap, skin cleanser, and antiseptic trusted worldwide by hospitals, healthcare professionals, and moms. Today
giving you five germy stats that will motivate you to start a daily hand washing routine with HIBICLENS.
You Can’t Avoid Germs
Stat 1: Did you know that you come into contact with an average of 300 surfaces every 30 minutes, exposing you to 840,000 germs (according to the 2011 Tork® Report)?
Now that’s a lot of germs – almost unfathomable. These germs cause everything from the common cold to MRSA. The key to protecting yourself from these germs is committing to a daily hand-washing regimen with HIBICLENS.
First, rinse your hands or the desired area to be cleaned with warm water. Next, using 5mL (about 1 teaspoon) of HIBICLENS, wash the desired area for 15 seconds under running water. Rinse and dry thoroughly and that’s it! By following these simple steps daily, you’ll help prevent the contraction and spread of illness among your family.
HIBICLENS vs. Standard Antibacterial Soaps
Stat 2: Washing your hands with standard antibacterial soaps offers no more protection against germs than regular bar soap (according to the Minnesota Department of Health).
Don’t get tricked by names, messaging, and packaging. HIBICLENS is antimicrobial, which goes beyond killing bacteria. When washing your hands with HIBICLENS, its germ-killing agent (Chlorhexidine Gluconate) instantly kills germs including viruses, fungi, and bacteria.
Influenza
Stat 3: Every year, 200,000 people are hospitalized with the flu, 10% of those being children under the age of five years old (according to the CDC).
HIBICLENS’s long-lasting germ protection, up to 24 hours (according to MBT Study No. 582-106, Study Protocol # 582.1.11.12.12), is an asset that your family can use to protect your children from the flu. Give it a try … have your children wash their hands with HIBICLENS before leaving for school. This 15-second commitment to your family’s daily health will pay lifelong dividends.
Salmonella
Stat 4: According to the CDC, Salmonella is estimated to cause 19,000 hospitalizations and 380 deaths in the United States every year.
HIBICLENS kills the Salmonella bacteria on contact. We suggest keeping a container of the powerful pink soap close to your kitchen sink, or wherever Salmonella is commonly present.
MRSA
Stat 5: 50 percent of schools in the United States have seen MRSA infection outbreaks (according to a NATA Survey of Athletic Trainers).
MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) is a bacteria that typically causes skin infections. You might have heard it called the “superbug”. Its resistance to many antibiotics makes the bacteria quite dangerous. Daily hand washing with HIBICLENS helps prevent the contraction of MRSA.
As you can see, our world is a germy place. Start the fight against infection and disease at home by washing your hands with HIBICLENS antimicrobial soap. It is convenient for at-home use, gentle on sensitive skin, and protects you from germs for up to 24 hours!
